CHAPTER 7
Project K2 S9900 Switch Operations
In addition to the input binding posts and connecting straps on the die-cast input
plate, the K2 S9900 has two level-adjustment controls, a bi-amp switch and a 9V
battery for biasing the signal capacitors. The battery is mounted under an access
cover which is held in place by two Phillips-head screws.

HF Level
This switch adjusts the attenuation applied to the 476Mg (high-frequency unit)
by approximately 0.5dB over the range of 1,000Hz to about 15,000Hz. Midrange
and high-frequency sounds become softer by reducing the level and stronger by
increasing the level. This action is accomplished by trimming the main attenua-
tion resistors. No additional parts are inserted in the signal path and there is no
sonic deterioration caused by use of the control (Fig. 10).

indicates +0.5dB and lower band indicates –0.5dB.
