    Introduction your preamplifier is the control center of your music system, acting as an interface between the sound sources-record players, tape recorders, fm and video tuners-and the power amplifier which drives the loudspeakers. As the focal point of your system, it should be attractive and easy t...

    The dh-110 is provided with accessory rack mount end caps in addition to the standard end caps installed on the unit. These accessory caps extend the width of the front panel to that of a standard 19” rack, with appropriate mounting holes. Installation instructions are detailed later in this manual ...

    Fects that can result from unpowered electronic circuits in the tape decks when they are connected to the recording outputs, it is recommended that tape recorders be switched on when the preamplifier is in use. This is a commonly overlooked cause of less-than-ideal preamplifier performance. Signals ...

    There are three basic rules for success in electronic kit building: 1: read the instructions carefully, and follow them in or- der. 2. Make secure solder connections which are bright and smooth. 3. Check your work carefully after each step. The dh-110 preamplifier is a versatile component with sophi...

    Excess solder may be removed from a connection by heat- ing it and allowing the solder to flow onto the iron, which is then wiped on the sponge. All solder used must be rosin core never use acid core solder or any separate flux in elec- tronic work. Silver solder is also not suitable. If in doubt ab...

    Each socket, the board is marked to indicate the side of the hole on which the center mounting tab should be positioned, so that it will be soldered to the widest part of the circuitry on the back side. Leave the phono plug in the socket while bending and soldering is completed. If you do not bend t...

The wire should not protrude sig- nificantly beyond the front surface of the board to avoid coming in contact with a connector. To assure a good solder connection, bare wire should be visi- ble on the circuit side of the board. Co...

    If a problem arises if neither led lights when you first turn on the power switch, turn the unit off immediately. Check the fuse. Check the polarity of the leds. Check the power transformer wiring for proper connections for your line voltage. Look for a short caused by a stray strand of wire, or for...
