Ayre V-1x, Owner'S Manual

Page: 8 / 16

Should the AC line voltage drop below 80% of normal
(brown-out), the unit will revert to “Warm-Up” mode and
the indicator light will glow red. After the voltage returns
to normal, the initial warm-up cycle will begin again.
The Ayre V-1x also incorporates a sensor to detect the
presence of DC at the output terminals. In this case, the
amplifier reverts to “Warm-Up” mode, the indicator light
glows red, and power is immediately removed from the
output stage. If the fault is still present when the front
panel switch is pressed to “Operate” after the warm-up cycle
is completed, the unit will immediately revert to the
“Warm-Up” mode again.
Remote Control
The remote control included with the Ayre V-1x has four
buttons. The single button on the left side of the hand-held
transmitter will select the “Standby” and “Operate” modes
on the amplifier, duplicating the action of the front-panel
switch. The three buttons on the right side of the remote
control will operate an Ayre preamplifier.
Break-In
100 to 500 hours of music
played through the system will
assure full break-in.
Due to the manufacturing processes used for the wires and
capacitors, a break-in period is necessary for the amplifier to
reach its full sonic potential.
