Connect the "playback" leads of your tape
recorder
to
the
phono
sockets
marked
"Tape
in"
on
the
rear
of
your
amplifier
using
phono/phono
leads.
If
your
tape
machine
processing
DIN
outputs,
then
DIN/phono leads, or a DIN/phono adaptor
can
be
used.
If
you
experience
level
matching
problems
when
using
DIN
connectors,
please
consult
your
tape
machine manufacturer.

that
bridge

Check
to

removing
the

you
can
connect
a
signal
processor
such
as
a
surround-sound decoder or an electronic
crossover
in
the
path
between
preamp
and
power
amp.
Connect
a
cable
from
PRE-OUT to the processor's input and a
second cable from the processor's output
to MAIN IN.

LOUDSPEAKERS
Your AMC
amplifier
is
designed
to
drive
loudspeakers
with
a
nominal
impedance
of 4-8 ohms.
However,XIA30
can
only
drive
4
ohm
speakers
by
switching
the
impedance
selector
on
the
rear
panel
of
the
unit
to
the 4 ohm setting.

Connect the negative side(usually black)
of your left hand loudspeaker lead to the
black
terminal
of
the
two
terminals
marked "left" on the rear of your amplifier.
The other side of your
left
hand
speaker
lead (the positive side or red) should be
connected
to
the
red
terminal
marked
"left".
Repeat
this
operation
for
the

so
all
connections
must
be
checked
to
avoid
inadvertent short circuits and to ensure a
good clean contact.
The
AC
Selector
will
be
set
to
the
AC
power
voltage
of
your
country
from
factory. But in case if your XIA30/XIA50 is
not
received
directly
from
factory
or
you
move from one country to the other, the
AC
selector
might
be
set
at
different
voltage. So, before plug power cord into
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD
THE OUTPUTS BE SHORTED TOGETHER.
Such
action
will
damage
output
circuitry
and is not covered by guarantee.
The heat produced by your AMC amplifier
during
normal
operation
is
dissipated
by
an during normal operation is dissipated
by
an
internal
finned
heatsink.
It
is
perfectly
normal
for
your
amplifier
to
becomes quite warm and to radiate heat
when in use, especially if it is run near full
power. However, if it becomes too hot to
touch, switch off at once and contact your
dealer.
It is very important that there is adequate
ventilation for the whole of the amplifier.
Do
not
place
the
unit
on
a
rug
or
other
soft
surface
that
it
could
sink
into,
obstructing the air inlets on its underside,
and
take
care
not
to
obstruct
the
outlet
grille on the top cover.
