No test signal is better than her music
and no test instrument better than the
humanear.
Alabaster should be placed in an open space away from moisture and with
adequate ventilation.
The device is connected to the mains via an IEC mains lead which is provided with
your Alabaster amplifier.
The IEC socket on the rear of the device has a replaceable fuse; see the
specifications at the end of this manual or rear of machine for correct values.
Be sure that all appliances are turned off before disconnecting or connecting
anything.
Alabaster has five inputs; Tp, CD, DIR, L1, L2 and one output; LnOut.
We recommend using DIR and CD for best sonic performance. Tp, L1 and L2
should be used for line level signals e.g. Tape source.
Beware, do not have the Tape Source selected when LnOut is connected to it whilst
recording as this will result in a very nasty experience.
For best loudspeaker connection use bare wire through the threaded holes in the
binding posts or spade connectors and be sure never to short positive and negative
wires as this could have a detrimental effect on your speakers and your amplifier.
The controls on the front panel are, from left to right; Power, Source select and
Volume.
When cleaning your Alabaster never use solvents. A clean dry cloth would be
adequate.
Please note that there are no user serviceable parts inside the device and you
should refer any problems to your dealer. Tampering with the device may void
your warranty.
Caution: This amplifier runs hot. Be sure to keep it well ventilated.
