A
STANDBY/ON button
Press this to turn the unit on or put it into standby mode.
After turning the unit on, the power indicator will blink and no
sound will be output for a few seconds. Wait until the indicator
stops blinking and stays lit.
o Since this unit has a large power transformer and capacitors,
the power transformer might make noise for a short time
after the unit is turned on. This is normal behavior, not a
malfunction.
B
Power indicator
This lights when the unit is on.
A
Analog INPUTS connectors
Connect these to the analog output connectors of preamps.
Set the INPUT SELECTOR switch to choose the connector to use.
Use commercially available cables for connections.
RCA: RCA cables
XLR, ESL-A: balanced XLR cables
Insert balanced XLR plugs until the connector levers lock. Press
these levers and pull the plugs out to disconnect.
o The XLR connectors are 2 "HOT". Use compatible cables.
o Insert the plugs completely. Do not bundle these cables
together with power cords or speaker cables. Doing so could
degrade the sound quality or cause noise.
o For ESL-A connections, use balanced XLR cables that are
shielded. Using cables that are not shielded could cause
noise.
B
TRIGGER connectors
Use these connectors to control power from an external source.
Commercially-available 3.5mm mono mini plug cables are
necessary for connections. Please prepare cables with the
lengths necessary for the use conditions.
IN: This turns the unit on or put it into standby mode in coordi-
nation with the connected device.
THROUGH: Multiple Grandioso S1X units can be coordinated
with the power of an external device by connecting
this to the TRIGGER IN of a second Grandioso S1X.
C
AUTO POWER SAVE switch
Use this to turn the automatic power saving function on and off.
When the automatic power saving function is on, if there is no
audio input (continuous silence) from the selected input source
for 30 minutes, the unit will enter standby mode automatically.
o The input sources that are not selected have no effect on
automatic power saving.
D
LED brightness adjustment knob
Use this to adjust the brightness of the power indicator.
E
AC power inlet (~IN)
Connect the supplied power cord to this AC inlet.
After completing all other connections, plug the power plug
into a power outlet.
V
Use only a genuine ESOTERIC power cord. Use of
other power cords could result in fire or electric
shock.
V
Disconnect the power plug from the outlet if you
will not use the unit for a long time.
F
SIGNAL GND grounding terminal
Using commercially-available sheathed wire (for example, PVC-
insulated) to create grounded connections with the speakers,
the preamplifier or other equipment might improve the sound
quality.
o This is not a safety grounding terminal.
G
INPUT SELECTOR switch
Use this to switch between the RCA, XLR and ESL-A inputs.
V
Do not change this when the unit is on. Doing so
could result in a sudden loud noise that could harm
your hearing or damage the connected speakers.
H
OUTPUT MODE switch
Use this to change the unit operation mode.
STEREO: stereo power amplifier
BI-AMP: bi-amplifier
