It is normal to listen with the

volume knob advanced farther

than you may be used to with

other equipment.

The volume control offers 1.5 dB steps over most of its

range, allowing you to exactly select the desired listening

level. To maximize its capabilities, it has been designed so

that the volume knob will be between 1 oclock and 3

oclock for a loud playback level in most systems.

When a surround-sound processor is used, it is sometimes

useful to know the unity-gain volume setting. Since the

gain of the Ayre K-3x line-stage is 16 dB when driving a

power amplifier with balanced inputs, unity gain occurs

when the volume control is eight steps below the maximum

setting (see illustration).

Since the tape record selector

(Record) is controlled

separately from the main

input selector (Listen), it is

possible to listen to one source

while recording from another.

The tape record selector (Record) controls which source

component is connected to the tape output jacks. It is

recommended that the tape record selector be switched to

the Off position except when making a recording. This

will isolate the tape decks circuitry from the preamplifier,

providing the highest level of sound quality when listening.

When using the Ayre K-3x

with an unbalanced power

amplifier, note that the

unity-gain volume setting

will now occur when the

volume control is five steps

below the maximum setting.

Unbalanced power amplifiers with single-ended inputs only

utilize one-half of the Ayre K-3xs balanced output signal.

The result is a 6 dB gain reduction, requiring that the

volume control be further advanced for an equivalent

listening level. However, certain systems may have

insufficient gain to produce a satisfying listening level, even

with the volume control turned fully up.

If required, the gain of the line stage can be increased 6 dB

to compensate for this loss. Please contact your authorized

Ayre dealer or the factory for information on this procedure.

(It is not recommended to increase the gain of the Ayre

K-3x when using a balanced amplifier, as the level of the

lowest volume setting may be too loud.)
