User manual - GOLDMUND MIMESIS 330 ANALOG INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER

Goldmund was founded in 1978 and has ever since been dedicated to the accurate reproduction of sound

and image.

At Goldmund, we strive to lead in the creation, development and manufacture of the industry’s most

advanced technologies, including audio and video systems, home - networking and music distribution.

The guiding principle at Goldmund is to produce a precise sound with the least possible loss of quality

through the different stages. Goldmund will never adopt a technology before it is sufficiently developed to

satisfy the high quality standards we set. This is why Goldmund has often rejected mainstream technologies

and developed its own.

No connection or manipulation must be

done before reading those instructions.

Damage of the amplifier may result if the

following instructions are not consciously

understood and applied.

This high quality amplifier possesses new

technical features such as ultra-high band

width and computer linking which are a

necessity for accurate transcription of analog

messages for todays best complete systems.

Only careful installation and use can

provide the satisfaction you are expecting.

The installation instructions must be carried

out in full and the mentioned precautions

taken to get the expected result and to avoid

impairing the amplifier’s performance.

CHOICE OF AMPLIFIER LOCATION AND COOLING

The GOLDMUND MIMESIS 330 amplifier,as all high quality amplifiers generates a large

amount of heat when driven at high levels and must be vented properly.It is mandatory to

allow a proper cooling of the heat sinks. Do not put temperature sensitive equipment on top

of the amplifier.

3LINE VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENT

Avoltage selector is provided on the backplate of the amplifier.

If your line voltage is not adapted to the voltage indicated on the serial plate of the amplifier,

please consult your local GOLDMUND dealer for internal adjustment.

ATTENTION

On the 220V position, the GOLDMUND mimesis 330 amplifier will function properly for main

line voltage between 190V and 245V. On the 110V position, the main line must deliver

between 95 and 125V. If your main line is usually out of these tolerances, please consult your

GOLDMUND dealer.

Please check the value of the main line fuse. This fuse is located on the back panel of the

amplifier,above the two power cord receptacles.

Use a 5A delayed fuse for 220V and an 8A delayed fuse for 110V.

4CONNECTIONS

Connect the power cord to the back of the amplifier and plug it into the nearest wall plug.

Use only a 3 lugs grounded plug, for safety reasons. To get the best sound from the ampli-

fier, avoid any multiple plug or extension cord.

Connect the speaker cables to the 5-way binding posts on the back panel.

Connect the interconnects from the analog source devices to the line inputs numbered 1

to 5.

For the D/A option, connect the interconnects from the analog source devices to the line

inputs numbered 6 to 8.

ATTENTION

Aresidual High Frequency noise may remain audible in some circumstances if an input is left

open and is selected. This disturbance has no effect on the Amplifier but may be easily

avoided with the application of short-circuiting plugs on all unused inputs.

5AMPLIFIER CONTROLS

Manual Operation

On the front plate of the GOLDMUND MIMESIS 330 amplifier you will find only two POWER

keys.

In the Manual Operation mode, the two POWER keys have to be activated simultaneously

to power the amp on.

This security feature is provided to avoid accidental POWER ON or POWER OFF.

When the two keys are pressed simultaneously, the amp switches on in "Operating" mode

and the center green Led lights on showing the amp is POWERED ON.

If the digital input is used, the yellow Led may flicker, showing there is no lock and the amp

remains muted until a lock is found.

With an analog input, the amp is immediately operational.

By pressing the right key once, the amplifier is put in Mute mode, and the green Led flickers.

By pressing the right key once again, the amplifier returns to "Operating" state.

The amp may be POWERED OFF by pressing the two POWER keys simultaneously at any

time.

5AMPLIFIER CONTROLS

POWER

The MIMESIS 330 Analog Integrated Amplifier is powered on using the switch located on the

back panel. In regular use this switch should be left ON at all times (See Sound Quality

Optimization). The standby function of the remote control should be used to mute the signal

for the safe removal of cabbles.

The Amplifier is powered OFF by switching the back panel switch to the OFF position. A

saftey circuit switches the unit to mute to avoid any diusturbance reaching the speakers.

MUTING

Muting is controlled using the remote control. It can be used to turn the volume down

temporarily without touching or changing the volume control. When returned to normal, the

volume is returned to its level at the point the muting was activated.

VOLUME

Volume may be adjusted manually by turning the volume control knob, or by using the

VOLUME + or - on the remote control.

SELECTOR

Selects one of the eight (if the D/A option is selected, five if not) available inputs for listening.

One step clockwise selects the next input. Selection may also be made using the remote by

pressing the key corresponding to the input on the Analog section of the remote.

OPENING VOLUME MEMORY

This function is only accessible via the remote control. It allows the volume to be

automatically set to the level fixed when the unit is turned ON.

To adjust the level, first play at the desired output level, then press MEMO on the remote.

If at any time during playback you wish to return to this level, just press the RESET button.

6SOUND QUALITY OPTIMIZATION

Warm-up Sonic Effect

If the amplifier has been powered OFF for some time, the optimum sound quality is only

reached after some time. It may take 15 minutes for the amplifier to reach optimum

operating temparature, as the circuits have to warm up to around +55 degrees Celsius (=131

degress Farenheit).

MAINTENANCE

The GOLDMUNDMIMESIS 330 amplifier usually requires no maintenance.

Always turn the power OFF before cleaning your amplifier. Use a clean, soft, damp cloth to

clean the amplifier surface. Dampen the cloth with water or a mild detergent solution.

Avoid abrasive or harsh cleansers (eg. products containing sodium carbonate).
