PuYn Quick Start 

 

Connect the music source, like a turntable or CD player, to the PuYn's input.  

 

Then connect the PuYn's output to your main stereo device, like an integrated 
amp or ac ve speakers. 

 

The PuYn has three controls: the Standby bu on, the Knob, and the Select 
(arrow) bu on. The Standby turns the PuYn on and oV. The Knob quickly rotates 
through se ngs. The Select bu on chooses the func on or se ng. 

 

With your main system volume adjusted low, turn on the PuYn (allow 4 to 5 sec-
onds a er ini ally plugging in the DC adapter). If using a turntable, you can start 
playing music as the default gain se ng is for typical vinyl usage.  

 

If you are using a CD player or other line output music device,  scroll to the 'Set?' 
control on the PuYn and adjust to the 'CD' preset for the correct ampli®ca on. 
Otherwise you will have a very loud output, as the PuYn ampli®es an otherwise 
already large audio signal. 

 

Always have your system's master volume control adjusted low when changing 
the 'Gain' se ng or loading presets on the PuYn to prevent loud surprises. The 
Standby bu on is also a great emergency mute bu on in an unexpected "loud 
music" event.  

 

Other than some care with gain changes, just have fun with the PuYn.  ou can't 
break anything and can always revert to a default preset with the 'Set?' func on. 
So feel free to experiment.
