CONNECTING MAINS POWER

Please refer to rear panel view on Page 4. The moulded IEC connector of the supplied mains lead should be plugged into the socket (5) on the rear of the unit first and then plugged into the mains supply. The Mains power switch (8) is on the rear panel of the Power Amplifier. This switch is normally left on. If the unit is likely to be unattended for a long period, switch it off and unplug the mains lead from the wall.

SIGNAL CONNECTIONS

Signal Input connections:

Input socket is high quality gold plated RCA Phono Socket and should be connected to corresponding preamplifier output.

Connecting a Preamplifier:

Connect the Preamplifier Output to the INPUT SIGNAL Sockets (1) on the rear panel of the Caspian Mono Power Amplifier.

Chain Connecting Multiple Amplifiers:

If the preamplifier used does not have sufficient number of pre outs, connect the CHAIN OUT Socket (2) on the rear panel of the first Caspian Power Amplifier to the INPUT SIGNAL Sockets of the second unit, and so on. Several amplifiers can operate together in this way.

Bi-amplifiying with the Caspian Dual Mono Preamplifier:

Connect the PRE 1 OUT Sockets on the rear panel of the Caspian PreaAmplifier to the INPUT SIGNAL Sockets (1) of the first pair of Caspian Mono Amplifiers and the PRE 2 OUT Sockets to the INPUT SIGNAL Sockets (1) of the second pair of Caspian Mono Amplifiers (See diagram on Page 6).

IMPORTANT NOTE: For optimum performance it is recommended to use high quality inter-connect cables such as ROKSAN HDC-02A high definition analogue Cable.

LOUDSPEAKER CONNECTIONS

The loudspeakers are connected to the amplifier via the rear panel binding posts (3) and/or (4). There are two basic types of cable –

Figure 8 cable has two insulated conductors which lie parallel, either side by side, or spaced by insulation.

Overall sheathed cable has both conductors insulated and enclosed in an overall plastic sheath. Carefully remove any overal sheath or split the figure 8 cable to a depth of about 75mm

(3”).

Carefully strip the insulation on each wire to a depth of about 12mm (1/2”) exposing the bare core. If the conductor is stranded, twist the strands together on each conductor. Unscrew the binding post. There is a cross-hole about 5mm from the panel end of the binding post. Insert the bared conductor through the hole and tighten the binding post securely making sure that there are no loose strands or bare ends protruding through the post.

Carefully observe polarity ensuring that the RED (+) speaker terminal is connected to the RED (+) amplifier terminal and the BLACK (-) speaker terminal to the BLACK (-) amplifier

terminal.

When both left and right channels are connected to their respective speakers the amplifiers are ready for use.

IMPORTANT NOTE: For optimum performance it is recommended to use high quality cables such as ROKSAN HDC-02S high definition Loudspeaker Cable. Many speaker cables such as the ROKSAN HDC-02S are directional. Please observe this directionality. DO NOT use speaker cable with conductor size less than 16 AWG (1.6mm Diameter). The Binding posts accept conductor sizes up to 12 AWG.
