Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the dbx 566 vacuum tube compressor. The 566 combines world-renowned
dbx compression with the latest in vacuum tube technology.
The dbx 566Õs compression section incorporates the features that have made dbx the standard for high
quality audio compression: Over Easyª compression curve, PeakPlusª limiting and the advanced
dbx V1ª VCA module that ensures high system performance. Precision 1% resistors are used
throughout the audio path to ensure performance stability and low noise. To ensure years of trouble-
free operation, each dbx 566 must pass a rigorous set of performance tests and a 24-hour burn-in peri-
od before it is shipped from the factory.
We recommend that you take a moment to read through this operation manual. It provides valuable
information that will assist you in setting up and operating your dbx 566.
