CONNECTING TO OTHER EQUIPMENT

The use of high quality interconnect cables to and from your

integrated amplifier is recommended to ensure the best sound

quality (sonic performance).

The sockets carrying messages from your integrated amplifier are

marked L (left) and R (right), for identification. Sockets marked L

on your integrated amplifier should be connected to sockets

marked L on other equipment. All the line inputs (not PHONO)

have the same sensitivity and may be used with equipment other

than that labelled, if you need to do so.

PROCESSOR/TAPE 1 RECORD OUT

Connect this output to the input sockets of your tape deck

(RECORD) or the tape or line input sockets of your AV processor.

PROCESSOR/TAPE 1 PLAY IN

Connect this input to the output sockets of your tape deck

(PLAY) or the tape or line output sockets of your AV processor.

VCR/TAPE 2 RECORD OUT

Connect this output to the input sockets of your tape deck

(RECORD).

VCR/TAPE 2 PLAY IN

Connect this input to the output sockets of your tape deck

(PLAY).

DVD

Connect this input to the audio outputs of a DVD player.

Connect this input to the audio outputs of an Audio-Visual

product such as a VCR, Laserdisc player or Nicam tuner.

TUNER

Connect this input to the audio outputs of your radio tuner.

Connect this input to the audio outputs of your CD player

or DAC (digital to analogue convertor).

AUX

Connect this input to the audio outputs of any unit with a

line level output, eg. tape deck, tuner etc.

Please note:The AUX inputs MUST NOT be used if the

phono module is fitted. When the phono module is fitted

AUX becomes an output carrying the equalised phono

signal at line level.

PHONO OPTION - Please note:The phono inputs are on a

separate plug-in module which your Arcam dealer or

distributor can supply and fit.This module is compatible with

most high output moving coil and moving magnet cartridges

(MM) and low output moving coil cartridges (MC). MM or

MC is selected via an internal switch.Your cartridge type

should be specified when the module is fitted.

For connecting a turntable fitted with a high output moving

coil or a moving magnet (MM) cartridge.

For connecting a turntable fitted with a low output moving

coil (MC) cartridge.

GROUND TERMINAL

For connecting your turntable earth lead (if fitted).

REMOTE CONNECTION

These connections are for use in multi-room installations. In

normal use there is no need to make any connections to

these sockets. If you are biamping with an Arcam power

amplifier see section 'Remote Switching' for details of how to

power both units on/off simultaneously.

GAIN

This switch allows you to change the sensitivity of the

amplifier to match the gain when biamping to external

power amp.The normal position is suitable for use when

biamping with Arcam power amplifiers.

The low gain position is suitable for certain specialist

home theatre systems. Before making any connections

ensure that all equipment is switched off at the mains wall

socket.

PRE/POWER CONNECTIONS

PWR AMP IN - To use your integrated amplifier just as a

power amplifier, connect the output of your pre-amplifier to

the PWR AMP IN sockets.The integrated amplifier's internal

selector switch must be changed to disconnect the pre-amp

stages of the unit. Contact your dealer or Arcam for more

details. Under these circumstances it has exactly the same

specification and performance as an Arcam power amplifier.

PRE-AMP OUT - To use your integrated amplifier as a

preamplifier, connect the PRE-AMP OUT sockets to the

input sockets of your power amplifier. With a power

amplifier of the correct gain (e.g. An Arcam P25)

this allows you to bi-amplify ('bi-amp') suitable loudspeakers,

giving significant improvements in sound quality (see section

on BI-WIRING/ BI-AMPING).

Bi-wiring your speakers

Bi-wiring improves the sound of your system because it divides the

high and low frequency signal currents into separate speaker

cables.This avoids signal distortions arising from the high and low

PHONO OPTION

frequency currents interacting with one another within a single

cable, as in conventionally wired systems.

YOU WILL NEED

Speakers which have four terminals (connection points for

wires) on the back of each one. That's eight in total.

If you have four terminals on each speaker they will be marked HF

(High frequency) and LF (Low Frequency).

Loudspeaker cables

Two pairs of loudspeaker cables per loudspeaker (which may be

joined at the amplifier end if your amplifier only has one pair of

output terminals per channel).

Or, a suitably terminated cable set (group of bound cables,

probably prepared by your dealer) capable of being used for

bi-wiring in one length.

WARNING

Do not make any connections to your amplifier while it is switched

on or connected to the mains supply. Please check all connections

thoroughly, make sure bare wires or cables are not touching the

amplifier in the wrong places (shorts) and you have connected

positive (+) to positive (+) and negative (-) to negative (-) before

attempting to re-connect the mains power supply.

Always ensure that the volume control on your amplifier is set to a

minimum before switching on.

HOW TO BI-WIRE LOUDSPEAKERS

Remove the wire clips or bars which connect the pairs of terminals

together (terminal links) on each of the red and black terminals

on the rear of your loudspeakers.

THIS IS ESSENTIAL OR DAMAGE TO YOUR AMPLIFIERS

MAY RESULT WHICH IS NOT COVERED UNDER

WARRANTY.

Connect the cables as shown in one of the pictures opposite,

dependant on the cables and the number of free amplifier

terminals you have, ensuring correct polarity at all times.

The positive (+) terminals on the right loudspeaker must go to the

positive (+) terminals on the right of the amplifier and the negative

(-) terminals on the right loudspeaker must go to the negative (-)

terminals on the right of the amplifier etc.

RIGHT SPEAKER

If you are using one pair of bi-wireable speakers and another pair

that is not, you should connect your bi-wireable speakers as shown

above, to just one set of the amplifier terminals. This leaves the

second set of terminals to connect the non bi-wireable speakers to.
