LEXIKON/WISSSENSWERTES

This appliance was produced under strict quality controls. It complies with all established international safety standards. Nonetheless, the following instructions should be fully read and observed in order to prevent any hazard:

Do not open the appliance! Risk of electric shock! There are no parts in the appliance that require maintenance by the user.

Maintenance/Alterations

All equipment that is connected to the domestic mains voltage can be dangerous to the user if not handled properly. Leave maintenance work to qualified professionals. The product is only permitted for connection to AC 230Volt/50Hz, for earthed sockets and use in enclosed areas. Altering the product or manipulating its serial number voids the warranty. After a fault, leave the appliance's fuse to be replaced only by a professional with one of the same kind.

Power Cable Connection

Always pull the plug and never the power cable if you want to disconnect the appliance from the mains power. Make sure when setting up the appliance that the power cable is not squashed, severely bent or damaged by sharp edges. Do not touch the power lead with wet or damp hands. Use the power cable supplied or another one from Vincent.

Switching Off

Switch the appliance off every time before you connect or remove other components or loudspeakers, disconnect or connect it to the mains power, leave it unused for a longer period or want to clean its outside. On all amplifiers and receivers, wait approx. 1 minute after this before disconnecting or reconnecting the cable.

Moisture/Heat/Vibration

Contact of electrically operated equipment with liquids, moisture, rain or water vapour is dangerous for such equipment and the user and must be avoi

ded without fail. Take care that no liquids or objects get inside the appliance (ventilation slots etc.). It must be disconnected from the mains power immediately and examined by a professional if this happens. Never expose the appliance to high temperatures (direct sunshine) or strong vibration.

Heat Build-up

Make sure that a gap of 5cm remains around the appliance and that the surrounding air can circulate (do not install in enclosed cupboards). Vents must not be covered up.

Volume

The maximum tolerable volume is always reached well below the maximum possible setting on the amplifier. Be careful with the volume setting, therefore, in order to prevent damage to hearing. So that you do not expose yourself to high volumes unintentionally, always set to a low level before changing the input channel.

Cleaning

Pull out the power plug before cleaning the outside of the product. Whenever possible, use a soft, lint-free cloth that has been dampened. Do not use abrasives, solvents, thinners, flammable chemicals, polishes and other cleaning products that leave marks.

Batteries

Take note of the instructions for using batteries in the chapter "Remote Control".

DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLIANCE

Despite the fact that development is constantly moving in the direction of digital audio format and towards audio video systems with an increasing number of channels, high quality stereo systems still enjoy a large degree of popularity. Recent trends also have not brought any changes concerning the advantages of separate pre-/main amplifier systems over integrated amplifiers.

SA-T1 is a remote controllable stereo preamplifier from the Vincent product range. It is the new top model among the tube preamplifiers and combines the advantages of tube amplifiers an transistor

amplifiers. The result of an extensive development effort and rigid component selection is a preamplifier almost unrivalled. In most diverse main amplifier setups it never loses control. High-quality craftsmanship and an outstanding ratio in price/ performance can be taken for granted.

This preamplifier is also the ideal partner for the main amplifier SP-T100 as well as DVD players, CD players, tuners, headphone amplifiers and loudspeakers from the Vincent range. In combination with the HiFi furniture and speaker cables from the range, one can build a perfectly harmonious system.

FRONT VIEW

1. TREBLE

Knob for setting the treble proportions (high frequencies) of the sound. The middle position keeps the high tones unchanged.

2. POWER

This is the main power switch for turning on and off the device. The preamplifier is separated from the mains voltage when switched off and cannot be set into a standby state.

3. BASS

Knob for setting the bass proportions (low frequencies) of the sound. The middle position keeps the bass unchanged.

4. TONE

If deactivated, audio signals bypass the tone control that has been set with the BASS and TREBLE dials.

5. Display window for the tube

6. LOUD: Loudness function

This button activates and deactivates an audio signal correction that adapts the speaker audio signal to the human auditory sensation in the lower volume range.

7. INPUT: Input Selector

This dial allows you to choose one of the six inputs. The LED that is actually lit shows you what input channel has been selected. Additionally these LEDs show that the appliance is switched on.

8. SR: sensor diode for the remote control

9. VOLUME: Volume dial

This is the knob for the adjustment of the main volume level of the system. The LED in this dial is blinking for some seconds while after switching on the tubes are being warmed up or while the preamplifier is muted.

REAR VIEW

10. INPUT: input connectors

Here you find six stereo RCA inputs for the source equipment with analogue stereo (line level) audio output.

11. OUTPUT REC: recording output

If desired, you can connect a recording device like a CD recorder or a tape recorder to this output. The stereo signal of this output is identical to the output signal of the selected audio source at one of the preamplifier INPUTs. As long as the preamplifier is muted (15), the output "OUTPUT REC" does not provide the music signal.

12. OUTPUT: preamplifier outputs

With these two pairs of RCA connectors you can output the preamplified stereo audio signal of the currently selected source to the power amplifier channels. The volume setting, mute status, tone settings as well as the Loudness function have effect on the signal at this output.

13. Fuse: Fuse holder

This small plastic housing holds the fuse. Refer to the security precautions.

14. AC 220-240V: Power Connector

To establish the power supply, connect the plugs of the power cable to the device and to a suitable wall outlet.

REMOTE CONTROL

Point the front of the remote control directly at the front of the appliance, making sure there are no objects between the remote control and the appliance.

The distance between the remote control and the appliance should not be more than 7m as the reliability of the remote control is affected beyond this range.

Make sure that you do not point the remote control at an angle to the appliance, as beyond an angle of ± 30^ to the centre axis the appliance may not respond as well to the remote control.

Change both batteries if the distance at which the remote control can be used effectively decreases.

BATTERIES

Using batteries

Handling batteries incorrectly can cause battery acid to escape or an explosion in extreme cases. The batteries must be correctly inserted taking note of the polarity, which is marked in the inside of the battery compartment.

In order to make full use of the batteries' life, do not mix new and used batteries. Make sure that you insert batteries of the same type.

Some batteries are rechargeable, others are not however. Take note of the precautions and instructions that are included on all batteries.

Remove the batteries if the remote control is not going to be used for a long time.

Under no circumstances must batteries be short-circuited, taken apart or heated up.

For environmental reasons, used batteries should be disposed of in accordance with local environmental regulations and not put with domestic waste.

Only use AAA (LR3) size batteries.

Changing/Inserting batteries:

a) Open and remove the battery compartment lid of the remote control by tugging sharply on the fishplate on the edge of the remote control. The battery compartment lid is held in place magnetically, there is no need to loosen the screws!

b) If necessary, remove used batteries and insert new ones correctly as shown by the diagram in the battery compartment.

c) Put the compartment cover back on and close the battery compartment.

BUTTONS OF THE REMOTE CONTROL

15. MUTE

Pressing this button once cuts the signals at the outputs "OUTPUT" (12) and "OUTPUT REC" (11) so that the system's loudspeakers are muted. Pressing it again returns to the original volume.

16. Input selector buttons

Select the input source you want to listen to with these buttons.

17. DIMMER: tube illumination setting

This setting affects the brightness of the illumination of the tube display window (5).

18. VOLUME ▲ and VOLUME ▼

These buttons change the amplifier's volume level for the preamplifier outputs "OUTPUT" (12).

INSTALLATION

Set up the cable links in a sequence as follows. Connect the power cable between device and power supply only after all other connections have been made.

DURING INSTALLATION PLEASE OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING ADVICE:

Protective caps

Prior to the first installation the protective plastic caps must be removed from all the connections

used at the rear of the unit.

RCA connections

Mechanically identical RCA plugs are available for analogue and digital outputs. Make sure that you do not get these connections confused during

installation!

Make sure that you do not mix up the analogue connectors for right and left. The RCA plugs for these are mostly colour coded as follows: red for the right channel, black or white for the left channel.

Contacting the middle pin of the RCA plugs with the outer ring of the RCA chassis jack may lead to damages to the main amplifier if it is switched on! To avoid this hazard, connect or disconnect only in switched-off state and more than one minute after deactivating!

Cable connections

Make sure that all plugs fit tightly. Inadequate connections can cause noise interference, failures and malfunctions.

To make the most of the components' sound potential, only high quality loudspeakers and connecting cables, for example Vincent cables, should be used. Your local stockist will be glad to advise you about this.

CONNECTION OF THE SOURCE EQUIPMENT

Connect the outputs of the source appliances to the inputs "S1"..."S6" (10) of this preamplifier. You can connect up to six devices with analogue RCA stereo high level output such as a CD player in order to provide the audio signals of your input sources to the system. The output sockets on the source equipment are usually indicated by "LINE OUT", "AUDIO OUT" or "FRONT OUT". You will find information about ways to connect source equipment in their operating manuals. All six inputs represent electrically equivalent standard high level inputs with RCA connection. They have an identical function and differ only in name.

General information:

To use a record player you need a so-called phono preamplifier (also called an equaliser preamplifier), which is installed in the signal path between the record player and one of the high-level inputs. Some models of record player already include this preamplifier and can be connected directly. You will find further information in this appliance's operating manual.

The stereo sound of appliances that use output connectors other than RCA (DIN plugs, jack plugs) can often also be used with the aid of adaptors.

CONNECTION OF A RECORDING DEVICE

If you want, you can use the RCA sockets "OUTPUT REC" (11) on the back of the appliance to connect an analogue stereo recording device (e.g. CD recorder, cassette recorder etc.) or another appliance that is intended for receiving the unchanged, fixed stereo output level (line level) from the signal source selected on the amplifier at any given time. The output level is independent from the volume setting. Please note that while the preamplifier is muted (15) the recording output is switched off.

Connect this signal output to the signal input ("LINE IN", "TAPE IN" or "REC IN") on the recording appliance using RCA cables. Please note that some recording equipment can have a slightly detrimental effect on the audio signal quality. Some recording devices have rather low input impedance, which can slightly alter the input signal voltage. For maximal music enjoyment we recommend that you connect to the "REC" terminal only for as long as the recording is actually being made.

CONNECTION OF ONE OR MORE POWER AMPLIFIERS

This preamplifier has two stereo preamplifier outputs with RCA connectors for the main amplifier channels. In this way it is possible to drive four loudspeakers or bi-amp one pair of loudspeakers (e.g. using two stereo main amplifiers). The main amplifiers supply the system's loudspeakers and the loudspeakers are connected to the outputs of these. Instead of each stereo main amplifier shown here you can alternatively use two mono main amplifiers.

To connect one pair of loudspeakers you will need two main amplifier channels, for example one stereo main amplifier. Connect both sockets named "1" in the field "OUTPUT" (12) with the RCA input sockets of the main amplifier channels (often marked as "INPUT" or "POWER AMP IN"). Please pay attention not to interchange right with left channels. The letters "R" and "L" indicate the correct correlation. You may further use the SA-T1 preamplifier output marked with "2" for a headphone amplifier.

You can as well use both stereo outputs at the same time, giving way for up to 4 main amplifier channels to supply their loudspeaker. For that all you need to do is connect all remaining stereo outputs (12) with additional main amplifier channel inputs.

The fact that this amplifier is equipped with two RCA stereo preamplifier outputs enables you to bi-wire your loudspeakers using adequate speakers and one or more additional main amplifiers. Your HiFi specialist will advise you on this.

Check that the electricity supply to your home is appropriate to the device. The required voltage and frequency can be read on the back of the device beside the socket for the mains. If the electricity supply is appropriate, push the inlet connector of the supplied mains cable firmly into socket for the mains on the back of the device (14). Connect the other end of the mains cable to a mains socket.

OPERATING THE APPLIANCE

Operation	Button(s)	Description
Switch on and off	POWER (2)	The preamplifier is switched on and off using this button at the front panel. It has no standby option. When switched off the device is internally separated from the AC power. As a precaution, after switching on, the volume setting of the preamplifier should be reduced. After switching on, the device needs up to 30 seconds before it is ready to operate. Meanwhile, the LED in the speaker's knob (9) will be blinking. During power-on mode, one of the LED for the input selection will be lighted.
Select an input	INPUT (7)Input keys (16)	At the front panel: If you turn the dial “INPUT”, you select one of the devices connected to the inputs on the back of the SA-T1 (10) for playback. Using the remote control: A short touch on the button for the desired input channel (e.g. “S1”) changes to the playback of the audio source connected there.The LED associated to the selected input channel will be illuminated at the front of the appliance. Before switching over the input channel, the volume (9)(18) should be turned down as a precaution!
Change the volume	VOLUME (9)VOLUME▲ /▼ (18)	At the front panel: Turn the knob “VOLUME” clockwise to turn up the volume and counter-clockwise to turn it down.Using the remote control: Press and hold the button “VOLUME▲” to raise its value. Use “VOLUME▼” to lower the volume level.The volume setting does never influence the signal at the output “OUTPUT REC” (11).
Mute the preamplifier output	MUTE (15)	The MUTE function can only be activated or deactivated with the remote control. It switches off the preamplifier outputs “OUTPUT” (12) and the recording output “OUTPUT REC” (11). The LED in the volume knob will be blinding during mute mode. Pressing the MUTE button again restores the volume to its original setting.
Change the treble proportions of the sound	TREBLE (1)	With the “TREBLE” control dial on the front of the device you affect the proportion of higher frequencies in the sound. Turning it in clockwise direction increases the treble intensity and moving it in anticlockwise direction reduces it. In the middle setting the treble proportions of the input signals remain unchanged. The adjustment of the treble control only has an effect if the button “TONE” (4) has been pressed. The signal of the output “OUTPUT REC” (11) is independent of this.
Change the bass proportions of the sound	BASS (3)	With the “BASS” control dial on the front of the device you affect the proportion of lower frequencies in the sound. Turning it in clockwise direction increases the bass intensity and moving it in anticlockwise direction reduces it. In the middle setting the bass proportions of the input signals remain unchanged. The adjustment of the bass control only has an effect if the button “TONE” (4) has been pressed. The signal of the output “OUTPUT REC” (11) is independent of this.

OPERATING THE APPLIANCE

Operation	Button(s)	Description
Switch off tone control (BASS/TREBLE)	TONE (4)	If the sound is not to be changed, it is recommended that you switch off the sound control (BASS, TREBLE) with this button on the front of the device. When this button is pressed, the sound processing settings in the tone controllers (1)[3) come into play. If the button is not pressed, the two sound controllers in the preamplifier are bypassed and the signals from the source are not changed in terms of their frequency levels.
Switch the audio signal correction for low volume on and off	LOUD (6)	This function is operated from the front panel. It is a feature of audio amplifiers that permits the user to strengthen low and high frequencies compared with middle frequencies at the touch of a button. It thereby corrects the impression of volume at low volume. In an audio system, when the volume is small, low and high frequency ranges are insufficient because of the characteristic of human auditory sensation. This function should only be used at low volume. It has no effect on the signal of the output “OUTPUT REC” (11).
Change the brightness of the tube window illumination	DIMMER (17)	The display window for the visible tube (5) can be illuminated with one of four brightness settings, if that is desired. Initially the brightness setting is at maximum. By repeatedly pressing “DIMMER” all illumination levels are available. After switching off the preamplifier the brightness setting is saved until you use the device again.

TIPS

Burn in/ Warm up

Your audio components need a certain time period until they reach maximum performance. The duration of this "warm up" time is very different for the various elements of your audio system. Higher and homogeneous sound quality is achieved while keeping the device switched on.

Your audio specialist dealer has enough experience to give you more information.

Net frequency noise

Some audio source devices may in combination with the amplifier cause a humming noise at power line frequency audible from your speakers. Usually, its volume varies with the volume setting of the amplifier. This is no sign of a defect or fault of your audio products but has to be eliminated. Generally, every wall-powered device connected to the ground wire of the power plug can cause this problem when connected to the amplifier.

Experience shows that this problem is mainly caused by antenna-connected components (as TV-sets or Tuners), personal computers, electrostatic loudspeakers, subwoofer, record players or headpho

ne amplifiers that are connected to the audio inputs of the amplifier. Another possible reason for humming noise is electromagnetic interference of other components' power supplies with pick-up systems of record players (change the place of the record player for a test).

In most electric devices the ground potentials of all signals are connected to each other at one central point, where they have one common connection. If the device uses the protective conductor of the wall outlet, the corresponding wire of the line cord is connected intractably to the metal housing of the device. This is mostly the point where the central grounding point is attached to. By doing this the housing is able to shield all signals from external radiated noise. Some main amplifiers are equipped with a "Ground Lift" switch. If it is activated, ground potential of the chassis and the protective ground wire are being separated from the central signal ground point. The protective ground wire keeps its function. Sometimes this helps prevent noise caused by errors in grounding.

If the problem occurs and cannot be solved by yourself your audio specialist dealer will help you.

GLOSSARY

Audio Sources/Source devices

These are the components of your HiFi system and all other appliances, whose sound you want to hear over the system and are thus connected to the pre-amplifier, amplifier or receiver. This includes CD players, DVD players, FM tuners, cassette players, DAT recorders, personal computers, record players, portable audio devices and many more.

Input sensitivity

Term for the smallest average (RMS) input voltage which causes the maximum output power at the maximum volume setting on the amplifier. Examples: 100mV to 500mV (Millivolts) on line level inputs, 2mV to 5mV on the phono MM input or 0.1mV to 0.5mV on the phono MC input.

dB Level

This is a way of describing any physical quantity; it is a common measurement for signal voltages and the volume. It is given in decibels (dB). Alternating signal voltages below 1V (RMS) are described as "line level" voltages, which are suitable as music signals for amplifier inputs. Inputs on amplifiers (mostly represented by RCA sockets), which are designed for signals on the CD player, tape recorder, DVD player etc. are also referred to as "line level inputs". Those signal inputs must not be confused with inputs that accept preamplified signals.

RCA

RCA is the American name for a type of coaxial connectors and sockets, originally the abbreviation for "Radio Corporation of America", the name of a United States company. Both the plug and cable consist of a rod-shaped inner lead and a cylindrical-shaped outer lead. This enables a mono audio signal or a video signal to be transmitted. Compared to the XLR plug connector, this type of connection is also called "unbalanced signal connection".

Dynamics

The volume difference between the quietest and the loudest sounds possible in audio signals, without distortion or transition to noise.
