Professional Power 24V

User manual

Dear Clearaudio customer,
Thank you for choosing the Professional Power 24V, a high-quality transformer- based and stabilized 24 Volt DC power supply made in Germany by Clearaudio.

The Professional Power 24V provides improved filtering over the standard power supply, which delivers a much cleaner power source. Cleaner power and increased ‘headroom’ for Clearaudio’s Innovation and Ovation series turntables, thanks to smoother motor performance and extended reserves.

The attractive design and improved listening experience will ensure that the Professional Power 24V is a welcome addition to your home audio system.

We wish you much musical enjoyment with your new Clearaudio Professional Power 24V.

Initial start

Clearaudio has developed special packaging for your Professional Power 24V to ensure safe transportation.
Please keep this original packing, if you need to ship the unit.
Take the device out of the box and set it up at the desired location.
Before connecting the device to the power supply, make sure that the main switch on the back is set to “0” (=OFF).

Connect the device to the mains with the enclosed power cord.
Then connect your turntable and the Professional Power 24V with the built-in power cable instead of the standard plug-in power supply.
Now you can turn the main switch on the back to „I“ (=ON).
The LED light on the front panel of the Professional Power 24V starts to flash for approx. 40 seconds, while the device starts up and the output voltage stabilizes.
When the LED light shines continuously, the device is ready (ON mode) and you can start the turntable.

Operating modes

Standby

The „Standby“ mode is characterized by:

The output is deactivated (the turntable is not supplied with power).
The LED light is off.

ON

The „ON“ mode is characterized by:

The output is activated (the turntable is supplied with power).
The LED light shines continuously.

Dimming the LED

The LED light on the front panel can be darkened or lightened by one level by long-pressing the ON/OFF/Standby button on the front panel.

Turn off

Due to the Professional Power 24V, you can turn off the turntable by pressing the ON / OFF button on the front panel (Standby mode) of the Professional Power 24V. You don’t have to switch off the turntable itself.

You can leave the main switch on the back on, so when you switch the unit on again, the device is immediately ready for use and does not have to start up first.

However, the turntable must be reactivated at the desired speed.

Special instruction

For your own safety, you should inspect regularly the mains voltage lead. If the insolation is damaged, please have it replaced immediately by a specialist!
