EVOLUTION 5350 INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

FRONT PANEL

The front panel controls, from left to right, feature a rotary Input selector knob, a group of buttons containing a

Tape monitor switch, Mute and Speaker A/B selection, a display window, volume control knob, headphone socket

and on/off switch.

REAR PANEL

The rear panel, from left to right, features a mains inlet socket with fuse and voltage selector switch. Right channel

A and B speaker output terminals. AV Direct or Power amp Input, Pre-amp and tape outputs. Tape, Aux 2, Tuner, CD

and Aux or Phono Inputs. Ground post. Left channel speaker A and B output terminals.

LOUDSPEAKER CONNECTIONS

The loudspeakers should be connected using a suitable pair of cables designed specifically for audio use. Check with

your dealer for advice. There are two pairs of high quality touch-proof terminals marked A or B so that 2 pairs of

speakers can be connected and selected from the either the front panel or from the Creek SRC3 remote handset, or

one pair of speakers connected using bi-wire cables. The terminals allow for either 4mm plugs or spade lug

connectors. Tighten the terminal fully after fitting the speaker wire. Please consult your dealer for advice if you are

unsure.

It is very important to connect the loudspeakers to the loudspeaker terminals in the correct phase. Cables are

normally polarised with a line or writing on the positive side. If one channel is not connected in the same fashion as

the other, a severe loss of bass performance and a spreading of the stereo image will result. It is also very important

not to short the loudspeaker cables together when the other ends are still connected to the 5350, as permanent

damage can result. If it is necessary to move or change the location of the loudspeakers, make sure that you first

switch off the 5350 from the mains.

VOLUME CONTROL/OPERATION

The volume level can be adjusted either by the control knob situated on the right hand side of the front panel, or

remotely, with the SRC3 remote handset. The volume control is used to alter the relative level of the sound output

from the 5350. It is important to realise that the volume control only acts to reduce, or attenuate, the incoming signal

to the power amplifier stage. The volume level is displayed graphically from 0 - 80 in small steps. 0 represents no

output and 80 represents the maximum. When switching on, the 5350 defaults to a pre-set average level of 30. If you

switch the 5350 off with a higher setting than 30, the amp will turn on again at 30. If you set the level below 30, the

5350 will remember the last setting (provided that the level did not change for 30 seconds prior to turning off) and

return it to the previous level.

The maximum power output of the 5350 is available only if the level of input signal is sufficient to drive it to maximum

power (clipping). The volume control is necessary to adjust the level from one piece of equipment to another. It does

not increase the power of the 5350 and if it is found necessary to have the volume control set to a position which is

considered to be high, before the desired level of volume is obtained, it does not necessarily mean that the 5350 has

to work "flat-out".
