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

• 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.
