What is a preout ?

Devialet amplifiers are mainly equipped with inputs, which means that you can connect third-party devices, such as a CD player for example, and thus amplify the received signal and play it on the speakers.

 

It is sometimes necessary to output a signal from the amplifier, to listen to music through headphones for example. We call it pre-amplified output or PreOut and this is configurable via the Devialet configurator.
