SPHINX Project Ten Service Manual

3 The Sphinx Project Ten design The Sphinx Project Ten was designed for the ever- increasing group of quality-conscious audiophiles. We are very proud of the tradition connected with the SPHINX name, especially concerning audio quality perfection. This service manual will help you to optimally service and repair the Sphinx Project Ten Integrated Stereo Amplifier This integrated high-end stereo amplifier is of exceptional quality. With exception of the balanced input section, it is of discrete design throughout (no IC's are used). The pre-amp section is built around Dual FET's and the amplifier is DC-coupled from input to output. The two mono power amps (each channel is totally independent) use special power transistors with a power bandwidth of over 20 MHz, a very fast slew rate and an unsurpassed phase linearity over the power bandwidth. The amplifiers are therefore very stable and can effortlessly drive every type and format of loudspeaker (even the most complex ones such as electrostatic and magnetostatic...) at maximum quality. All internal audio cabling is Siltech pure silver and the amp outputs are sent to the loudspeaker connectors via heavy duty, completely sealed gold- plated relays. To obtain the maximum quality from this integrated amp it is necessary for it to be properly aligned and to be used with top quality audio components, preferably other Sphinx components. 1. UNPACKING Before leaving the factory every Project Ten is subjected to stringent and extensive technical and exterior quality inspection. This ensures the user many years of high quality audio from a perfect- looking product. We recommend owners to ship the Project Ten in its original carton. After unpacking the Project Ten we therefore recommend you carefully check it for any transport damage. If you find any damage and the product has not been shipped in the original carton the ensuring repair costs will not be covered by the warranty. 2. SPHINX WARRANTY CARD To be entitled to any warranty repairs the owner must have send the filled out warranty card to Sphinx or a distributor where it has been registered. Other regulations may apply in your specific country: when in doubt, please consult the proper authorities. 3. CONTACTING THE MANUFACTURER In case of any problem not covered in this manual or if you have other questions you may contact the Sphinx International Service Department in The Netherlands (local time: GMT +1h) during office hours at the following numbers: Telephone (+31) 35 602 0302 Fax (+31) 35 602 2806 E-mail [email protected] It is always very helpful and efficient if you have all relevant information about the specific product and the problem ready. Please also refer to the User Manual of the Project Ten for information about functions not described in this manual.

7 Operation The Sphinx Remote is used for several different models and can therefore transmit different control codes, depending on which model has been selected with the select buttons (1.). Important: Always press the PRE-AMP button before you send a command (even if you only have one Sphinx component). If not it is possible that although the Remote will send a signal (LED blinks) nothing happens because the transmitted signal is not 'recognised' by the component. Indoors the Remote may be used up to a distance of 7 meter, provided there is no strong sunlight in the room and if you aim the Remote at the component. Always aim the Remote straight at the front panel of the component, the maximum offset angle is 30°. Selecting without switching Suppose for instance that you would like to select the Tuner to Radio 4 without interrupting the CD playback. In that case you momentarily depress (not longer than 0.5 sec) the 'TUNER' button and the '4' button. The same procedure is used for the other system components How to operate the Remote Control with the different Sphinx components will be explained in the corresponding User Manual of each component. Batteries The four batteries have a life span of approx. one year during normal use, but shorter when used more intensely. Replacement batteries: 1.5 V, model penlight or AAA . You may also use rechargeable 1.5 V batteries. Note: Position the new batteries exactly as shown in the illustration at the bottom of the battery compartment, otherwise the Remote will not function! Encountering problems...

9 7. GENERAL CHECKLIST Before you test or service the Project Ten please check the following items. They will give information about the current status of the amplifier. Protection modes The Project Ten has one protection mode. Short Circuit If the Left or Right output is shorted, fuse Z1 or Z2 will blow respectively. Standby mode The Project Ten will switch to Standby Mode if the: • Standby button on the front panel or • Standby button on the Remote is pressed. In this Mode the following will happen: • The output relay is switched off. • The Control Output will be activated (red light). • The bias current for the Left and Right amplifiers is reduced to 0 mA thus greatly decreasing the operating temperature. Necessary Equipment To properly service the Project Ten you need some specific measurement equipment and use a specific set-up. For the correct measurement set-up and hook-up please refer to the drawing titled “Connection Connection diagram… at pages 14 and 15. � 2x millivolt-meter (Ri >1 MΩ) � 2x non-inductive load resistor 8 Ω / 100 Watt � 1x harmonic distortion analyser (internal distortion <0.0005%, measured without filters) � 1x 2-channel oscilloscope (minimum bandwidth >60 MHz) � 1x connection unit / switch box (to connect scope, resistors and amp outputs to distortion analyser) � 2x shorting connector (for balanced pre-amp inputs) � 2x balanced cable set (to connect distortion analyser to Project Ten)

10 8. ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES The Project Ten is an integrated amplifier, meaning the pre-amp and power amp sections are combined into one cabinet. The Project Ten only has two parameters for each channel (so four in total) that might need adjustment: - Bias: to set the bias current and bias voltage of the amplifier for normal use. - Offset: to set the DC-offset voltage of the output. These adjustments might be necessary when the amplifier has been used for a period of time (and settings have changed due to ageing) or when a part of the Project Ten have been replaced. Attention: When re-adjusting any setting please ensure that there is no loudspeaker connected to the output! Otherwise the loudspeaker may be seriously damaged. Attention: The amplifier is able to generate high output voltages of over + or -40 V. Please be very careful during the adjustments! The Project Ten is a two channel amplifier. After removing the top cover plate you will see the Left and Right Channels clearly marked. The power transistors are mounted underneath the heatsinks. Bias With this procedure you set the proper bias level for the power transistors. This ensures their Class A operation at low power levels. Connect the amplifier according to the drawing “Connection Diagram Bias Adjustment” (page 14). The input of the amplifier must be shorted (by way of the MUTE function of the oscillator). • Switch the amplifier ON and wait until it has reached the proper working temperature (this takes an hour). • Set the millivolt-meter to the DC-range. • Place the two measuring clips of the meter across one of the emitter resistors Left: R267, R271, R273, R277 Right: R467, R471, R473, R477 (refer to schematic in Pj10main.PDF). These resistors are positioned to the left of the power supply condensers. • The level for each should be 40 mV DC (±2 mV). If not: adjust potmeter P202 (Left) or potmeter P402 (Right) until the level is 40 mV. • Switch the oscillator on and set it to 1 kHz and a level of 0 dBu. • Check the distortion with a THD analyser: it should be conform the specified values (0.01% IHF-A @ 1 – 20 kHz @ 80 W into 8 ohm). • If this is correct the procedure is finished. • You may now switch off the amplifier or continue with another adjustment procedure.

SPHINX Project Ten Service Manual

11 Offset The Offset adjustment procedure minimises the DC offset value of the amplifier output. This DC offset is important when capacitive loads are used, such as electrostatic loudspeakers. These loudspeakers often use a very low-impedance step-up transformer. The amplifier ‘sees’ this load as a short for the DC voltage. Connect the amplifier according to the drawing “Connection Diagram Offset Adjustment” (page 15). The input of the amplifier must be shorted (by way of the MUTE function of the oscillator).. • Switch the amplifier ON and wait until it has reached the proper working temperature (this takes an hour). • Set the millivolt-meter to the DC-range. • Place the measurement clips of the meter over the output terminal. • The level should not exceed +5 or -5 mV DC. If not: adjust potmeter P201 (Left) or P401 (Right) until the level is within this range. • Switch the oscillator on and set it to 1 kHz and a level of 0 dBu. • Check the distortion with a THD analyser: it should be conform the specified values (0.01% IHF-A @ 1 - 20 kHz). • If this is correct the procedure is finished. • You may now switch off the amplifier or continue with another adjustment procedure. Attention: Do not connect speakers on the Project 10 when adjusting the offset. Please be careful during the adjustments!
