RECOMMENDATIONS TO OBTAIN THE BEST RESULTS

1. WARM-UP SONIC EFFECT:

If the preamplifier has been left un-powered for some time, the optimum sound quality may only be at-

tained after 6 TO 24 hours. The critical circuits have to warm up to around +55 degrees Celsius (+131

degrees Fahrenheit) before achieving their optimal performances. This is why WADAX recommends

that the PRE1 is always powered on.

2. Use WORD CLOCK SYNC for your transport, if available.

3. Use SPDIF sources (BNC, RCA) for best results. USB performance heavily depends on the data

source due to low quality signal resampling applied by the Operating Systems of most computers. For

this and other reasons WADAX does not reccommend using USB as a top quality data source.

4. Absolute phase: From firmware version 2.16, the absolute phase can be toggled with the Wadax key on the re-

mote for quick A/B evaluation. The Wadax key is the key to the right of ‘9’. Recorded music sound best when inverted

because they were recorded this way. It is a good listening practice to find best results inverting absolute polarity.
