ENGLISH

BALANCE - Rotate clockwise or anti-clockwise to

move the position of the stereo image. This may be

necessary if it is not possible to sit centrally between

the speakers. In normal use leave in the central 'click'

position.

SP2 - Selects or defeats the loudspeakers connected

to the terminals marked SP2. The main pair SP1 are

permanently connected.

HEADPHONES SOCKET - Accepts headphones

rated between 8 ohms and 2k ohms fitted with a

6.3mm stereo jack plug. If your headphones are fitted

with a different plug contact your dealer for a suitable

adaptor.

If you wish to listen on headphones only, connect

your speakers to the terminals marked SP2 and

release the SP2 switch to mute the speakers.

■

The headphone socket is always switched on,

irrespective of the position of switch ©.

POWER - Switches the unit on and off.

POWER LED - This will initially glow amber. After a

few seconds it will glow green. When the LED glows

amber, frie speakers are disconnected and an internal

protection circuit is activated.

■

If ttiis LED glows amber during normal use it may be

due to the amplifier overheating or an output overload.

Check the amplifier is properly ventilated. Switch the

amplifier off and wait for 2-3 minutes before switching

on again.

If the LED continues to glow amber, switch the unit off,

remove all the speaker cables and switch on again. If

the LED goes to green on switch on then check the

speaker and speaker cables for short circuits before

reconnecting them. If the LED continues to glow

amber with no speakers connected contact your

Arcam dealer.

OPERATION BY REMOTE CONTROL (ALPHA 8 ONLY)

■

The Alpha 8 amplifier is not supplied with a remote

control handset but is remote ready. The volume up

and down functions can be operated by the remote

control handsets supplied with all Arcam CD players.

It may also be possible to operate this function if your

CD player remote control handset has volume

up/down buttons and uses the Philips RC-5 remote

control protocol.

■

The Alpha 8 amplifier can also be muted by use of the

'MUTE' button on the remote control handsets

supplied with the Alpha 7, 8 and 9 CD players. The

POWER LED will glow amber in this case to indicate

that the amplifier has been muted. Pressing the

'MUTE' button again, or either of the volume up/down

buttons on your remote handset will cancel the MUTE

function.

Section C

ALPHA 8P POWER AMPLIFIER

The Alpha 8P power amplifier can be used in conjunction

with an Alpha 7 or 8 integrated amplifier to bi-amplify

loudspeakers that offer two sets of input connections i.e. are

biwireable.

The Alpha 8P can also be used with a

preamplifier or an AV processor or amplifier with power amp

out sockets.

MAINS CONNECTIONS

Connect up as per instructions for the Alpha 7 and 8

integrated amplifier.

LOUDSPEAKER CONNECTIONS

Connect up as per instructions for Alpha 7 and 8 integrated

amplifier.

CONNECTING TO YOUR SOURCE EQUIPMENT

PWR AMP IN - Connect to your pre-amplifier outputs

or the PREAMP OUT sockets of a Delta 290 or Alpha

7, 8 or 9 amplifier.

MONO LINK- The Alpha 8P can be connected to

provide two mono loudspeaker outputs from a single

input.

Utilising one Alpha 8P per loudspeaker in this manner

will allow bi-amplifying of biwireable loudspeakers.

This is particularly beneficial for top quality stereo

installations with a separate pre-amplifier, or for the

left, centre and right channel loudspeakers in a five

speaker Dolby Pro Logic system. Contact your Arcam

dealer for more detailed information.

■

Daisy Chain

- The Alpha 8P is capable of driving

further Alpha 8P amplifiers (or any other power

amplifier), to drive more speakers (eg. those in other

rooms or tri-amplified speakers etc). Connect the

extra power amplifier inputs to the MONO LINK
