Welcome
The S119 and S120 network receivers
from Revox combine the latest streaming
technology with an audiophile stereo
output from the high-end range.
When you see the compact construction, it
is easy to forget that there are full-blown
torodial transformers and heavy duty
power supplies at work in the network
receivers, so that if required, up to 240
watts (S120) are available at the speaker
terminals. Combined with the DSP
professional speakers and space
correction, you, in the company of your
Revox speakers, will reach a musical
zenith, which need fear no comparison
with its peers.
For the benefit of audiophile music
lovers, Revox deliberately avoided the
use of fans. So that nonetheless, the
S119/S120 can keep a cool head, even
when the temperatures outside top the
40°C mark, a heat coupler has been
used. This aluminium heat pipe
dissipates the heat away from the
network processor over a gold-plated
coating on a large area of copper. The
heat can then escape from the inside of
the housing through the convection
openings. In this way, we achieve a
processor temperature that is lower by
up to 30°C, which impacts positively on
the processor stability and ensures a
long working life.
In order to keep the operation on a par
with the sophisticated technology, a lot
of time and effort was invested in the
detail of the optional remote control. You
will feel it and see it.
This product innovation from Revox
stands out as a true system for life,
thanks to its legendary robustness and
longevity, which the brand is known for
throughout the world.

Installation - Safety advice
Please follow the instructions in the
User manual supplied.
Do not position the unit close to strong
heat sources or in direct sunlight.
Please take note of the following, if the
receiver is to be installed in a cabinet
or closed shelves. Allow at least 5 cm
of free space around the device, so
that the air can circulate freely and
that there is no build up of heat. Do not
cover openings on the back wall or in
the base of the unit.
It must be ensured that the correction
functioning of the unit's ventilation
openings is not affected by being
covered, e.g. by curtains, newspapers,
table cloths, or similar.
This unit conforms to protection class
2. This means that with this unit, the
ground cable is not connected to the
housing, in order to effectively
eliminate sound-damaging groundloops. With these network receivers
however, Revox uses the ground cable
for the reduction of noise fields. For
this reason, both the supplied cable
and the connection panel are fitted
with a ground cable.
The power plug should be removed
from the socket during longer periods
of non-use, for instance during an
absence.
Unplug the unit from the mains during
storms. Voltage peaks through the
mains power supply caused by
lightning strikes can damage the unit.
There must be easy access to the
power plug so that the unit can be
unplugged at all times.
Lay the power cable such that it
cannot be damaged. The power cable
should not have kinks or be laid over
sharp edges. It should not be walked
on or be exposed to any chemicals.
The last point is valid for the whole
unit. A power cable with damaged
insulation can lead to electric shocks
and represents a fire hazard.
Never pull on the cable when plugging
the unit in or out. Always hold the plug.
Liquids, flammable or other objects
should not be inserted in the unit’s
openings as this can lead to faults, fire
or an electrical shock.
Do not expose the device to splash
water or high levels of humidity. Do not
stand containers filled with liquid, e.g.
flower vases, on the device.
It is only designed for operation in
temperate, non-tropical climates.
Take note of and follow the safety
advice on the following pages.

Safety measures
Read and take note of the following
safety advice for your own safety and to
avoid unnecessary damage to your
equipment. Please keep this safety
advice in a safe place for future
reference.
Avoid locating the unit in a position
which:
- is exposed to direct sunlight
- is directly next to a source of heat
- has poor ventilation
- has a dusty atmosphere
- is unstable
- has high humidity
The guarantee covers the intended
usage of the unit.
High build-ups of dust and humidity
cause creepage current in the unit that
can cause a risk of shocks when
touching the unit or lead to a fire.
If you have moved the unit from a cold to
a warm environment, leave it switched
off for about two hours because of a
possible build up of condensation
dampness.
You should always switch your S119/
S120 off before connecting or
disconnecting other devices or
speakers.
Protect your unit from:
- damp, dripping water and steam
- impacts and mechanical loads
- magnetic and electrical fields
- cold, heat, direct rays of the sun and
severe changes of temperature.
- dust
- accesses to the inside of the device
Do not stand any articles with open
flames, e.g. lit candles on the unit.
Please note
In order to exclude the risk of an electric
shock, do not remove the housing. Only
have repair work carried out by a Revox
specialist dealer.
Volume
Loud music can cause hearing damage.
Avoid extremes of volume, particularly
over longer periods of time.
Supervision
Do not allow children to handle the
equipment without supervision. Do not
allow children in close proximity to the
unit. Do not operate the S119/S120
without supervision. Switch the power
switch off or unplug the unit if you are

S119/ S120 Front panel
As well as housing the multi-colour
status LED, the front panel of the
receiver also conceals a radio module
(RF) for the bidirectional data traffic with
the optional S208 remote control. The
unit is controlled through the S208
remote control.
Front view of the S119 network receiver
Advice about the installation location
As the radio module is located directly
behind the glass panel on the front of the
unit, the S119/S120 should be installed so
that it is aligned in the direction of the
remote control. This guarantees the
maximum distance for operating use the
S208. Walls and ceilings, particularly
those made out of brick or concrete
(with reinforcement), significantly
reduce the distance.

S208 Remote control
The optional S208 Remote control offers
you the optimum way to control the
S119/S120 network receiver. All
information is displayed clearly on the
TFT colour display, through the bidirectional wireless connection.
Additionally, the control of third-party
devices with an IR Code can be
integrated through a database. The
remote control is configured using the
free-of-charge
S208 EasyCreator
PC
software that can be downloaded from
the Revox homepage.
Initial operation
The remote control battery should be
charged up for at least 3 hours before
you start to use it. Please refer to Page
15 of this User manual for information on
how to do this.
The charger supplied with the remote
control is used to charge the lithium ion
battery in the S208.
The operation of the S119/S120 using the
S208 Remote control is described in the
next chapter. The setting options of the
remote itself, such as the background
colour of the display, are defined in the
S208. On the other hand, the menus and
setting options that affect the network
receiver itself depend on the
corresponding device. As a result, the
description is split between the S208 and
the S119/S120.
One S208 controls several receivers
Up to 24 network receivers can be
controlled with one S208 Remote control.
However, it can only communicate or
have a wireless connection with one
receiver at a time. If a connection to a
second receiver is established (
Select
device
hotkey), the connection to the
first receiver is automatically closed.
Two S208s for one receiver
If you are using several S208 remotes, it
should be noted that one receiver can
only have a wireless connection to one
remote controller at a time. If for
example, there is already a connection
to remote control
1, remote control 2
cannot establish a connection to the
receiver. Remote control
2 can only
establish a connection once remote
control
1 has ended the connection to
the receiver with the
button or has
established a connection to another
receiver.
Lithium battery information
The remote control, with the battery in it,
should not be exposed to sources of
great heat such as the direct rays of the
sun or to fire. Please also read the
information concerning the disposal of
this product in the Appendix at the end
of this User manual.

Charging the battery
The S208 remote control has a
rechargeable lithium ion battery that can
be charged using either the supplied
charger or a mini-USB connection.
Use the charger with the supplied USB
cable and the pluggable power supply.
Insert the S208 vertically in the charger
cradle (Step 1) and then let it slope
backwards (step 2). This ensures that
there is good contact between the 4 gold
contact-connections on the charging
cradle and the remote control.
Alternatively, the charger can also be
connected to the network receiver's
USB output if this is not needed for any
other purpose. In this case, the
pluggable power supply is not required.

Battery care
Keep the number of charging cycles to a
minimum
The working life of a lithium ion battery is
largely determined by the number of
times it is charged, irrespective of
whether it is charged from 90% to 100%
or from 10% to 100%. For this reason, it
makes sense to charge the remote only
once the charge-level display is showing
[Almost empty] or [Empty]. This will
lengthen the working life of the battery
with the same number of charging
cycles.
Store in a cool environment
If possible, don't place or keep the
remote control in warm or hot locations,
e.g. on a window sill or other places that
get hot. At temperatures above 40°C, the
rate of self-discharge increases and
irreversibly shortens the overall working
life and capacity. Particularly if the
remote control is not going to be used
for several weeks, it should be kept in a
cool location with the battery at 50% to
80% charge.
Total discharge protection
The S208 remote control has a total
discharge protection feature that
switches the battery that provides its
power off, as soon as this is completely
discharged either through usage or
through longterm storage. Once the S208
is in this state, it no longer reacts to
button-presses. In this case, the remote
control has to be completely recharged
using the charger or the USB
connection. This takes at least 3 hours.

brightness and adjusts the background
lighting accordingly.
The brighter the background lighting
selection, the shorter the battery life.
Background colour
Five colours are available as background
colour:
Dark grey / Walnut / Blue / Red /
Moss green.
On the one hand, this gives
you the option of choosing a colour that
matches your personal preference but it
also makes it easier to differentiate
between them, if several remotes are
being used.
Hotkeys
Four hotkeys are available per
Zone/Room that can have network
receivers or IR devices assigned to them
from the list of available devices.
Network receivers are integrated into
this list by being paired with the S208. IR
devices are integrated through the S208

Start Pairing
Background information to pairing
A fixed communication must be created
for the bidirectional wireless connection
between the S208 remote control and
the network receiver, in order that they
can communicate securely with each
other again after a restart or power
outage. This is also necessary because
there may be several network receivers
and remote controls in one system. The
exchange of information for the purpose
of uniquely identifying the devices is
called Pairing. An S208 remote control
can be deployed for the control of
several network receivers and as a
result can also be paired with several
network receivers.
Pairing process
To prepare for the pairing of an S208 and
and S119/S120, switch the network
receiver off at the power switch and
wait until the status LED on the front
panel has gone out. If you now switch
the receiver back on, the LED flashes
green for about 10 seconds. During
this time, you have the chance to start
the pairing process [Start Pairing], using
the OK button. Once a network receiver
is recognised, its name appears in the
S208 display. Now the name and the
preferred hotkeys can be selected. This
completes the pairing process.

First contact
Various connections have to be made
before setting up your S119/S120 for the
first time.
Speakers and outputs
Use cables with sufficient cross section
profile to connect your speakers to the
S119/S120.
The Revox recommendation:
Length 0 - 5 m: min. 2.5 mm
2
/ AWG 13
Length 5 - 10 m: min. 4.0 mm
2
/ AWG 11
Each speaker must have an impedance
of at least 4Ω. You must ensure that all
the cable strands are located correctly
in the speaker connection terminal and
that no individual strand is touching
another connector or has contact with
the S119/S120 housing.
Fully-insulated banana plugs provide an
elegant solution for making speaker
connections. The screw connectors
must be fully tightened to ensure a
secure contact.
Ensure correct polarity when connecting
the cables in order to ensure perfect
stage sound reproduction. Crossed
polarity doesn't cause any damage to
the speaker or the amplifier, but it leads
to an imprecise and somewhat diffused
sound picture that is weak in the bass
ranges.
Power cable
Only use the power cable supplied by
Revox. It must also be ensured that the
voltage value printed on the type plate
corresponds to the available mains
voltage. If required, the S119/S120 can
be reconfigured for a different mains
voltage. This should however only be
done by an authorised specialist dealer.
LAN/WLAN network connection
The S119/S120 network receiver is
designed for network-based functions,
such as playing Internet radio or as a
streaming client for your music library
that is located on a network hard drive.
The receiver needs access to your
network for these functions. This can be
done preferably through a wired LAN
connection, using the supplied RJ45
network cable or wirelessly through a
WLAN.
The reason for preferring a wired LAN
connection to a WLAN connection is its
reduced susceptibility to failures and the
option of being able to transmit highresolution audio formats (≥ 96 kHz)
without any interruptions. If a LAN
connection is used, the WLAN function
is switched off. In this case, the supplied
WLAN antenna is not needed. The
wireless connection to the S208 remote
control is done through the radio module
integrated in the glass front panel, which
is independent of the WLAN.

Your network
The following description for the cabling
and the setup of the S119/S120 makes
the assumption that there is a
functioning network with router available
and that the network is operational.
If you have any questions about the
setup and configuration of your network
or Internet access, please refer to your
System administrator or an IT specialist
of your choosing.
WLAN Wireless communication
An access point is required for the
wireless communication between the
S119/S120 and the router. This can be an
external unit or it can be integrated in
the WLAN router.
Internet Radio
If you want to use the S119/S120 to
receive Internet radio, there must be a
broadband Internet access to the router.
Setting up the Internet access may
involve further costs. The management
and use of the Revox Internet Radio
Portal is free-of-charge and already
included in the purchase price.
