INTRODUCTION
Audio Refinement was conceived to offer the renowned musicality or "sonic signature" of YBA
Electronics by Yves-Bernard ANDRE' in a more affordable range of products. It benefits from the
same design philosophy and attention to minute detail that is the hallmark of YBA.
Thank you for your purchase of the Audio Refinement Pre-5, Pre-Amplifier. It is precisely crafted
innovatively designed and extremely reliable. We appreciate your faith in our products and we
trust that your Pre-5 will reward you with many years of musical pleasure.
Please read the operating instructions before connecting the amplifier to your audio/video system.
DESIGN
An important design goal for Audio Refinement is the control of parasitic vibrations. These mechanical vibrations in the air have a negative effect on the purity of sound. The impact of these
vibrations depends on the size of the amplifier, the internal components and the rigidity of the
construction. The solutions chosen for Audio Refinement include:
The mechanism is designed to be as compact and as rigid as possible. The small physical size of
your Audio Refinement Pre-5 moves the resonant frequencies out of the audio domain.
The amplifier has only 3 feet which is the ideal way to drain vibrations.
The transformer is suspended to reduce the transmission of its vibrations to the rest of the circuitry.
The choice of materials is also an important part of the design of your Audio Refinement Pre-5,
the bottom is made of non-magnetic aluminum, the other parts are brushed and colored
aluminum.
CARE & USE
Ensure that your main AC voltage matches the voltage marked on the rear of the unit and on
the exterior of the shipping carton.
To avoid damage to your amplifier, we recommend that you disconnect the AC during electrical storm or if the unit will be unused for an extended period of time.
Do not handle your AC cord with wet hands. If liquid spills on your amplifier, unplug immediately
and contact your dealer for cleaning instructions.
