Connecting to power, loudspeakers and
other equipment
Follow the installation instructions for the amplifier on pages
4–6.
AUDIO IN
Connect this input to the output sockets of your pre-amplifier or
the
MONO LINK
The power amplifier can be adapted to provide two mono
loudspeaker outputs from a single input. Pull out the link
supplied and use it to connect the
together. Using one power amplifier per loudspeaker will enable
you to bi-amplify bi-wireable loudspeakers.
This is particularly beneficial for top quality stereo installations
with a separate pre-amplifier, or where amplifiers are provided
for the left, centre and right channel loudspeakers in a five
speaker Dolby Pro Logic or Dolby Digital system.
Contact your Arcam dealer for more information.
'Daisy chaining'
The power amplifier can be connected to further power
amplifiers to drive more speakers (e.g. those in other rooms or
tri-amplified speakers, etc).
Connect the extra power amplifier inputs to the
sockets on the power amplifier, left to left, right to right.

Remote switching
By making a connection from the
power amplifier to the
TRIG OUT
you can use the A80 to switch the power amplifier on and off. If
configured in this way, the front panel
(or the
button on the remote control) switches
Power/Standby
both amplifiers on and off together. This facility allows you to
conceal the power amplifier yet still control it.
The connecting cable required is a male 3.5mm to male 3.5mm
jack lead (stereo or mono) and it is possible to connect several
power amplifiers to an A80 by 'daisy chaining' from
one P80 into the
of the next.
REMOTE IN
Signal detect
The P80 power amplifier features a signal-detecting circuit
that automatically switches the unit on when an input signal
is delivered to the amplifier. The unit switches into standby
approximately 12 minutes after the signal source is switched
off.
The signal detect feature is disabled by the supplied blank plug,
or when a connection from the
REMOTE IN
of an A80 is made. Simply remove the blank plug from the
socket if you wish to use this feature.
