2.1
POWER SUPPLY
The main POWER switch is located on the back panel of the Goldmund Mimesis 22S
power supply. In regular use, this switch should be left permanently ON and the circuits of
the preamplifier activated or deactivated using the STANDBY ON/OFF.
When the POWER switch is switched ON, the preamp will become operative after few
seconds delay to ensure proper stabilization of all the circuitry and avoid any unwanted
noise. After this delay, the output of the preamplifier is connected to the power amplifier.
The preamplifier can be powered off by switching the POWER switch to the OFF position.
A special safety circuit switches the preamp to MUTE to avoid any disturbance reaching
the power amplifier and the speakers, even if the preamplifier is disconnected from the
mains supply by accident. However, to optimize the sound quality of the preamplifier and
ensure the reliability, the M22S should remain powered ON continuously and is only
deactivated using the Standby function.
