3 Refer to the operating manual of your balanced-output line-level source to verify that the pin assignments of its output connector correspond to the N º 28. If not, wire the cable so that the appropriate output pin connects to the equivalent input pin. Note: If you won't be using the N º 28's balanced inputs and need more single-ended[...]

4 Unpacking and placement Unpack your N º 28 Preamplifier and keep all packing materials for future transport. Locate and remove all accessory items from the cartons. Carefully inspect the product for damage and flaws. If you find any, see your Mark Levinson dealer immediately. Place the N º 28 as close as possible to the source equipment, thus k[...]

5 V olt age se lec ti on The PLS-228 is factory-set (internally) for 100V, 120V, 200V, 220V, or 240V AC mains operation @ 50 or 60Hz. Make sure that the label on the bottom of the PLS-228 indicates the correct AC operating voltage for your location.

6 Set-up and installation The N º 28 incorporates RCA-type and XLR-type connectors for audio signal input and output. The Madrigal-designed RCA-type connectors used for single-ended audio interconnection are a great improvement over ordinary RCA- type connectors. The gold-plated XLR-type connectors employed are of European design, and are made to [...]

7 The high-gain and low-gain phono options offer internally selectable cartridge loading via four single-pole miniature rocker switches, one for each channel. The high-gain and low-gain options have been factory-adjusted at 825 Ω and 47K Ω , respectively. If you wish to change the factory-adjusted cartridge loading, see "Making the interna[...]

8 If you wish to vary the input capacitance of the phono option to obtain the optimal value for a particular cartridge, a capacitor may also be inserted into the optional load terminals (see "Terminating the optional load" and "Making the internal adjustments"). Because the inherent input capacitance (all switches off) is in par[...]

9 Be sure all associated equipment is disconnected from the AC mains. After making all signal connections and internal adjustments, connect the ten-pin DC cable from the rear panel of the PLS-228 to the connector on the rear panel of the N º 28. Connect the AC cord to the male IEC connector on the rear panel of the PLS-228, then connect the AC cor[...]

10 Car e an d m ai n t e n an c e To remove dust from the cabinet of the N º 28, use a feather duster. To remove dirt and fingerprints, we recommend isopropyl alcohol and a soft cloth.[...]

11 Specifications The correlation between published specifications and sonic quality is unreliable. A list of numbers reveals virtually nothing. All technical measurements must be subject to qualitative as well as quantitative interpretation. Measurements of the N º 28 yield excellent results by any standards. However, only those specifications th[...]
