Features

Thank you for purchasing an M-801e Mirage Multi-Zone Amplifier. Please read this manual thoroughly before making
connections and plugging in the device. Following the instructions in this manual will enable you to obtain optimum
performance and listening enjoyment from your new Multi-Zone Amplifier. Please retain this manual for future reference.
Multi-Zone, Multi-Source Switching
The M-801e amplifier has six separate
amplifiers and two separate pre-amplifiers,
providing 8 independent zones with
integrated control. There are 12 input
sources comprising the following:
• Sources 1 – 8 are either Analog Stereo, or
Coax Digital Audio (PCM) Digital Coax has
priority if both are connected.
• Sources 9 - 12 are either Coax (PCM) or
Optical Digital Audio (TOSLINK) Only one
connection is permitted to each source.
• Sources 1 -12 have a programmable delay:
up to 600ms - 5ms steps.
eAudioCast
Six separate amplifiers independent yet
integrated control. Multiple remote sources
may be assigned, originating from a
connected eSeries amplifiers and streamers.
Amplifier Physical Stacking for
Zone Expansion
Additional zones may be added by physically
linking amplifiers in a stack through the Digital
Coax connections.Use sources 1-12 Digital Coax
outputs for connection to the Digital Coax
inputs of additional Autonomic amplifier(s).
As an alternative to physically linking
amplifiers together, eSeries amplifiers support
adding zones over Ethernet via Autonomic's
proprietary eAudioCast technology.
Pre-amplifiers and Outputs
Each zone has bass, treble, balance and
loudness control. These are accessed
from the front panel or Mirage Web
Interface. A feature called "Maximum
Volume limiting", is useful for protecting
connected speakers. It may be applied to
both amplifier and preamplifier outputs.
Amplifier Power, Protection,
and Clipping Indicators
55 Watts into 8 ohm loads, and 75 Watts into
4 ohm loads with < 1% THD. The amplifiers
are protected against output shorts, and
have algorithms that prevent hard clipping
when the zone amplifiers are overdriven.
Thermal Control
There are two progressive
levels of thermal control:
• The amplifier volume is reduced 20dB.
• The amplifiers are shutdown until the tem-
perature reduces below the first level.
Care should be taken to ensure
adequate ventilation. See "Important
Safety Instructions" on page 2.
Real Time Clock
The
M-801e
amplifier is equipped with a real
time clock. The clock automatically compensates
for daylight saving time if configured to do so.
The clock continues to operate typically > 48
hours without power (more than enough to keep
the time current during lengthy power outages).
IR Emitter Ports
There are 10 Buffered IR emitter Ports.
Ports 1 – 8 have IR routing, and are intended
to control specific input source components.
Two IR ports 9 & 10 are the sum of
all IR sources and control the "All"
zone source components.
Ethernet and IR Control
The
M-801e
amplifier may be controlled
and monitored via Ethernet. An
amplifier may receive IR directly from
the front panel receiver. There are zone
specific IR commands and also a set of
global IR commands. The commands are:
• ON
• OFF
• Standby (toggling)
• Mute
• Volume Up
• Volume Down
5
• Source Selects
• Discrete Audio Source Selects
• On with Source Specific commands
Amplifier Zone ON Status – "Amp-On"
Each zone has AMP-ON status: 12VDC OUT on
the rear panel connector: (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8).
Discrete Audio Selection
Audio selection may be independent. There
are IR Discrete control commands available.
Zone Linking
A zone may be programmed to be linked
with other zones. Zone linking ties the source
selection together. Optionally, it may also be
configured to tie the zone group's volume and
power. In your specific listening area(s) it may
be advantageous to have different volume
control but the same source, or the same volume
with separate power control. Zone linking
is setup via the amplifier's web interface.
96 Zones
There are 96 zones of possible control. On an
M-801e
amplifier each zone must be different,
however in a multiple amplifier stack, same
zone amplifiers are possible
(they simply mimic every parameter).
Power Failure Restoration
After an AC power outage the
amplifier restores its settings to the ore-
interrupted state. All internal settings are
stored in non-volatile memory, except the clock
that runs for at least 48 hours on stored power.
Restore Defaults
M-801e
The M-801e amplifier may be set to the default
settings. Restoring defaults clears all memory
and resets the zone allocations to zones 1 – 8.
It will also reset any custom zone and source
names to default (Zone 1 and S1, for example).
Firmware Upgradable
The
M-801e
latest operational firmware. See

M-801e
amplifier may be updated with the
for support.
