4a. OptiOperation® Different System Configurations

In keeping with AMR’s philosophy that ‘no one sound fits all’ the AM-77 is also adaptable to suit virtually any system configuration: able to operate at one end, as a pre-main stereo amplifier and at the other, as a single- channel power amplifier. In pre-main amplifier mode, the AM-77 will use both the pre- and power amplification sections: the AM-77 controls volume level and input selection controls. In power amplification mode, the AM-77 wil require an external, separate pre-amplifier to handle volume and input selection duties.

The following section describes alternative configurations for the AM-77 beyond the factory default: pre-main stereo amplifier setting. With diverse system permutations in mind, the AM-77 has built-in, six OptiOperation® modes to seamlessly integrate it into virtually any audio system configuration:

 

Mode I.

Pre-Main Stereo amplifier mode (default)

 

Mode II.

Pre-Main Monoblock amplifier mode

Six different

Mode III.

Pre-Main Bi-amplifier mode (horizontal biamping)

modes

Mode IV.

Power amplifier Stereo mode

 

Mode V.

Power amplifier Monoblock mode

 

Mode VI.

Power Bi-amplifier mode (horizontal biamping)

Supreme adapt-

The combination of synchronising multiple AM-77s together in practical terms is limited only by room size and

ability

cost. This approach allows for systems at the core, comprising of any number of AM-77s to be constructed to

 

any level of complexity.
