About the GamuT DI 150
The DI 150 arises from the wish to combine two high-end audio components into one while compro-
mising neither the quality of design nor the electrical circuits.
Our overall goal was to create the best sounding integrated ampli
fi
er available.
Design considerations
The cabinet is of a rigid construction and uses massive and genuine high grade materials, such as alu-
minium and stainless steel. This does not only contribute to the touch and feel factor, but is essential
for a long-lasting life even in a tough environment.
A GamuT product is built to be used daily and we expect our products to be in the “
fi
eld” for many
years to come.
Under normal circumstances the DI150 should not need inspection or service for quite a while. The
capacitors, for instance, have a promised lifespan of 10 years without degrading.
Electrical circuitry considerations
All components used in the DI 150 are of the highest quality and have been selected through intensive
listing sessions from the PCB itself over the non-magnetic chassis to the WBT output terminals.
The DI 150 is based on following GamuT specialties:
Dual-FET hybrid input buffer
•
Single power MOS-FET output circuit
•
Extremely powerful power supply with high bandwidth and low impedance
•
A unique protection circuit that ensures both the ampli
fi
er and the loudspeakers will survive
•
severe faults, that normally would lead to critical damage to either or both units
Unpacking
Carefully cut open the box with a knife. Remove the cables from the carton and lift up the DI 150
from inside the box. Remove the protective plastic enclosing the ampli
fi
er. Please be careful not to
place the ampli
fi
er on the front panel or bend the various terminals on the backside when doing so.
Please keep the packaging material in a safe place as it might come in handy later.
