Hi-Fi Tube Sound from DVD Micro Theatre
Why do I need it?
You deserve an immersive sound experience like an audiophile.
The built-in vacuum tube preamplifier enables you to experience the highest quality sound normally you can only find in premium Hi-Fi audio equipment.
Music is dynamic and is played to be heard by human ears. The analogue nature of tube gives a more pleasing sound to the nonlinear human ear-brain hearing system. Tube sound has less distortion than solid-state sound and audiophiles always prefer tubes for their clean, warm and far more detailed and life-like sound.
What is it?
Vacuum tube is not something new, but always a premium.
Before the introduction of transistors, most electronic amplifier used vacuum tubes. By 60s', solid-state amplification became more common, but tube amplifier has retained a loyal following among audiophiles with modern units from companies commanding very high price.
How does it work?
Amplifiers are available based on solid-state (semiconductor) technology or vacuum-tube (valve) technology. Many audiophile systems separate the functions of the preamplifier-which selects audio signals and has a volume control-and the power amplifier, which takes a line-level audio signal and drives the loudspeakers.
Audiophiles find the tube preamplifier product a more faithful and detailed reproduction in comparison to the solid-state preamplifier.

All unnecessary packaging has been omitted. We have tried to make the packaging easy to separate into three materials: cardboard (box), polystyrene foam (buffer) and polyethylene (bags, protective foam sheet).
Your system consists of materials which can be recycled and reused if disassembled by a specialised company. Please observe the local regulations regarding the disposal of packaging materials, exhausted batteries and old equipment.
Installation
- Place the player on a flat, hard, and stable surface.
-
In a cabinet, allow about 10cm (4 inches) of free space all around the player for adequate ventilation.
-
Do not expose your player to extreme temperatures or humidity.
● The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing. - No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.
- No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, shall be placed on the apparatus.

Listen at a moderate volume.
- Using headphones at a high volume can impair your hearing. This product can produce sounds in decibel ranges that may cause hearing loss for a normal person, even for exposure less than a minute. The higher decibel ranges are offered for those that may have already experienced some hearing loss.
● Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of sound. So after prolonged listening, what sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. To guard against this, set your volume to a safe level before your hearing adapts and leave it there.
To establish a safe volume level:
- Set your volume control at a low setting.
- Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, without distortion.
Listen for reasonable periods of time:
● Prolonged exposure to sound, even at normally "safe" levels, can also cause hearing loss.
- Be sure to use your equipment reasonably and take appropriate breaks.
Be sure to observe the following guidelines when using your headphones.
- Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable periods of time.
- Be careful not to adjust the volume as your hearing adapts.
- Do not turn up the volume so high that you can't hear what's around you.
- You should use caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.
- Do not use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle, cycling, skateboarding, etc.; it may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
IMPORTANT!
- The type plate is located at the bottom of the system.
- The voltage selector located at the bottom of this system is preset at 220V-240V from the factory. For countries that operate at 110V-127V, please adjust to 110V-127V before you switch on the system.
