The Sphinx Project Ten design
The Sphinx Project Ten was designed for the ever-
increasing group of quality-conscious audiophiles.
We are very proud of the tradition connected with
the SPHINX name, especially concerning audio
quality perfection.
This service manual will help you to optimally
service and repair the Sphinx Project Ten
Integrated Stereo Amplifier
This integrated high-end stereo amplifier is of
exceptional quality. With exception of the balanced
input section, it is of discrete design throughout (no
IC's are used). The pre-amp section is built around
Dual FET's and the amplifier is DC-coupled from
input to output.
The two mono power amps (each channel is totally
independent) use special power transistors with a
power bandwidth of over 20 MHz, a very fast slew
rate and an unsurpassed phase linearity over the
power bandwidth. The amplifiers are therefore very
stable and can effortlessly drive every type and
format of loudspeaker (even the most complex ones
such as electrostatic and magnetostatic...) at
maximum quality.
All internal audio cabling is Siltech pure silver and
the amp outputs are sent to the loudspeaker
connectors via heavy duty, completely sealed gold-
plated relays.
To obtain the maximum quality from this integrated
amp it is necessary for it to be properly aligned and
to be used with top quality audio components,
preferably other Sphinx components.
1. UNPACKING
Before leaving the factory every Project Ten is
subjected to stringent and extensive technical and
exterior quality inspection. This ensures the user
many years of high quality audio from a perfect-
looking product.
We recommend owners to ship the Project Ten in
its original carton.
After unpacking the Project Ten we therefore
recommend you carefully check it for any transport
damage.
If you find any damage and the product has not
been shipped in the original carton the ensuring
repair costs will not be covered by the warranty.
2. SPHINX WARRANTY CARD
To be entitled to any warranty repairs the owner
must have send the filled out warranty card to
Sphinx or a distributor where it has been registered.
Other regulations may apply in your specific
country: when in doubt, please consult the proper
authorities.
3. CONTACTING THE MANUFACTURER
In case of any problem not covered in this manual
or if you have other questions you may contact the
Sphinx International Service Department in The
Netherlands (local time: GMT +1h) during office
hours at the following numbers:
Telephone (+31) 35 602 0302
Fax (+31) 35 602 2806
E-mail [email protected]
It is always very helpful and efficient if you have all
relevant information about the specific product and

Operation
The Sphinx Remote is used for several different
models and can therefore transmit different control
codes, depending on which model has been
selected with the select buttons (1.).
Important: Always press the PRE-AMP button
before you send a command (even if you only have
one Sphinx component).
If not it is possible that although the Remote will
send a signal (LED blinks) nothing happens
because the transmitted signal is not 'recognised' by
the component.
Indoors the Remote may be used up to a distance
of 7 meter, provided there is no strong sunlight in
the room and if you aim the Remote at the
component.
Always aim the Remote straight at the front panel of
the component, the maximum offset angle is 30°.
Selecting without switching
Suppose for instance that you would like to select
the Tuner to Radio 4 without interrupting the CD
playback.
In that case you momentarily depress (not longer
than 0.5 sec) the 'TUNER' button and the '4' button.
The same procedure is used for the other system
components
How to operate the Remote Control with the
different Sphinx components will be explained in the
corresponding User Manual of each component.
Batteries
The four batteries have a life span of approx. one
year during normal use, but shorter when used
more intensely.
Replacement batteries: 1.5 V, model penlight or
AAA . You may also use rechargeable 1.5 V
batteries.
Note: Position the new batteries exactly as shown in
the illustration at the bottom of the battery
compartment, otherwise the Remote will not
function!

7. GENERAL CHECKLIST
Before you test or service the Project Ten please
check the following items. They will give information
about the current status of the amplifier.
Protection modes
The Project Ten has one protection mode.
Short Circuit
If the Left or Right output is shorted, fuse Z1 or Z2
will blow respectively.
Standby mode
The Project Ten will switch to Standby Mode if the:
•Standby button on the front panel or
•Standby button on the Remote is pressed.
In this Mode the following will happen:
•The output relay is switched off.
•The Control Output will be activated (red light).
•The bias current for the Left and Right amplifiers
is reduced to 0 mA thus greatly decreasing the
operating temperature.
Necessary Equipment
To properly service the Project Ten you need some
specific measurement equipment and use a specific
set-up.
For the correct measurement set-up and hook-up
please refer to the drawing titled “Connection
Connection diagram… at pages 14 and 15.

8. ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
The Project Ten is an integrated amplifier, meaning
the pre-amp and power amp sections are combined
into one cabinet.
The Project Ten only has two parameters for each
channel (so four in total) that might need
adjustment:
-Bias: to set the bias current and bias voltage of
the amplifier for normal use.
-Offset: to set the DC-offset voltage of the
output.
These adjustments might be necessary when the
amplifier has been used for a period of time (and
settings have changed due to ageing) or when a
part of the Project Ten have been replaced.
Attention:
When re-adjusting any setting please ensure that
there is no loudspeaker connected to the output!
Otherwise the loudspeaker may be seriously
damaged.
Attention:
The amplifier is able to generate high output
voltages of over + or -40 V.
Please be very careful during the adjustments!
The Project Ten is a two channel amplifier.
After removing the top cover plate you will see the
Left and Right Channels clearly marked.
The power transistors are mounted underneath the
heatsinks.
Bias
With this procedure you set the proper bias level for
the power transistors. This ensures their Class A
operation at low power levels.
Connect the amplifier according to the drawing
“Connection Diagram Bias Adjustment” (page 14).
The input of the amplifier must be shorted (by way
of the MUTE function of the oscillator).
•Switch the amplifier ON and wait until it has
reached the proper working temperature (this
takes an hour).
•Set the millivolt-meter to the DC-range.
•Place the two measuring clips of the meter
across one of the emitter resistors
Left: R267, R271, R273, R277
Right: R467, R471, R473, R477
(refer to schematic in Pj10main.PDF).
These resistors are positioned to the left of the
power supply condensers.
•The level for each should be 40 mV DC
(±2 mV).
If not: adjust potmeter P202 (Left) or potmeter
P402 (Right) until the level is 40 mV.
•Switch the oscillator on and set it to 1 kHz and a
level of 0 dBu.
•Check the distortion with a THD analyser: it
should be conform the specified values (0.01%
IHF-A @ 1 – 20 kHz @ 80 W into 8 ohm).
•If this is correct the procedure is finished.
•You may now switch off the amplifier or continue
with another adjustment procedure.

SPHINX Project Ten Service Manual
11
Offset
The Offset adjustment procedure minimises the DC
offset value of the amplifier output. This DC offset is
important when capacitive loads are used, such as
electrostatic loudspeakers. These loudspeakers
often use a very low-impedance step-up
transformer. The amplifier ‘sees’ this load as a
short for the DC voltage.
Connect the amplifier according to the drawing
“Connection Diagram Offset Adjustment” (page 15).
The input of the amplifier must be shorted (by way
of the MUTE function of the oscillator)..
•Switch the amplifier ON and wait until it has
reached the proper working temperature (this
takes an hour).
•Set the millivolt-meter to the DC-range.
•Place the measurement clips of the meter over
the output terminal.
•The level should not exceed +5 or -5 mV DC.
If not: adjust potmeter P201 (Left) or P401
(Right) until the level is within this range.
•Switch the oscillator on and set it to 1 kHz and a
level of 0 dBu.
•Check the distortion with a THD analyser: it
should be conform the specified values (0.01%
IHF-A @ 1 - 20 kHz).
•If this is correct the procedure is finished.
•You may now switch off the amplifier or continue
with another adjustment procedure.
Attention:
Do not connect speakers on the Project 10 when
adjusting the offset.
Please be careful during the adjustments!
