Page 3

Stereo Setup

In this configuration, the mono switch is set to stereo for stereo operation. Connect the line out jacks from a stereo preamplifier or source to the line in jacks of your Amp100. Next connect your speakers to the terminals marked SPKR A (observing proper polarity: see above). Connect a second (optional) pair of speakers to the terminals marked SPKR B. Select between the A and/or B speakers using the front panel speaker selection buttons.

Mono Setup

In this configuration, the mono switch is set to bridged. Connect the line out from a preamplifier to the right line in of your Amp100. Connect your mono speaker to the terminals of your Amp100, following the example in the diagram in figure 2 (previous page). Use the volume control on the front panel to adjust the volume. Leave the balance set to the center detent or normal position.

Application Setup One

In the application shown above in figure 3, a distributed audio system is connected to the AMP100 as a local zone amplifier via the Line 2 inputs. Normally the distributed audio system will be the audio source for the AMP100.

The distributed audio is then passed on to be used by additional zones or sub zones in the distributed system via the Line 2 outputs.

The Audio output of a local television is connected to the AMP100 via the Line 1 inputs, and whenever the television is active its signal will take priority over the distributed audio signal present at Line 2. However, the distributed audio signal will still be present at Line 2 Out. In this circumstance the audio output of the television will be heard via the AMP100. Once turned off, the AMP100 will automatically switch back the distributed audio system as an audio source, assuming the television is still active.

Application Setup Two

In the application shown above in figure 4, the audio output of a local television is connected to the AMP100 as a local source via the Line 2 inputs. Normally the television will be the audio source for the AMP100.

The audio output of a computer’s sound card is connected to the AMP100 via the Line 1 inputs, and whenever the computer is active its signal will take priority over the television’s audio signal present at Line 2. In this circumstance the audio output of the computer will be heard via the AMP100. Once turned off, the AMP100 will automatically switch to the television as an audio source, assuming the television is still active.
