(EN) Step 2: Controls
(1) The POWER switch is used to power up the
A800. The POWER switch should always be in
its "Off" position when you connect the unit
to the mains.
POWER LED lights up as soon as you power up
the A800.
(2) Each channel features a volume control. Use it
to adjust gain on your A800. Both volume
controls should be turned all the way to the
left whenever you power the unit up or down.
If an active signal is present on the input,
turning the volume down will protect your
speakers and your ears from unwanted "pops"
or transients.
(3) The PROT LED lights up whenever the
protective circuitry mutes the speaker output.
Please turn your A800 off immediately
whenever this LED is lit.
(4) The high-precision power indicator gives out
current signal strength.
(5) The CLIP LED lights up when the signal is
distorted. Should distortion occur, reduce the
input level, so that the CLIP LED no longer
lights up.
(6) CHANNEL INPUT 1 (MONO). Connect the
signal source whose output needs to
be amplified.
(7) CHANNEL INPUT 2. These are the inputs for
channel 2.
(8) The STEREO/BRIDGED MONO switch is used
to toggle between the two operating modes
of your A800.
◊
Please power the A800 down using the
POWER switch each time you change the
operating mode. Similarly, only connect/
disconnect speaker connectors if the
A800 has first been powered off!
(9) BINDING POST outputs accept bare wire
connections from speaker cables.
