CineNova Grande Power Amplifiers

10

Front and Rear Panel Overview

Front Panel Overview

1.   POWER SWITCH

Powers amplifier ON/OFF. Set this switch to OFF when making 
or breaking connections to the amplifier, or when changing the 
setting  of  the  MODE  switch.  NOTE:  12-Volt  DC  trigger  turns 
ON/OFF  amp  via  another  component  (It  overrides  the  switch 
position)

2

PEAK LED INDICATOR:

.   

The Cinénova-16 is equipped with 16 LED indicators on the front 
panel.  These  LEDs  indicate  the  operating  status  of  each 
corresponding  channel.  If  an  LED  or  all  LEDs  remain  lit 
continuously, the amplifier is clipping and the volume should be 
turned  down  immediately  to  prevent  damage.  If  the  LEDs  are 
simply flickering, the amplifier is close to it’s limits and should not 
be pushed any further.

Rear Panel Overview

Source selection allows you to select between the common 
bus and auxiliary inputs, or the individual channel input. The 
bus option allows a user to use one source input for several 
rooms.

3.   SOURCE SELECTION SWITCH

1.   RCA INPUT

Gold plated RCA individual channel inputs allow you to 
connect different audio sources to each channel. 

2.   LEVEL CONTROLS

Level controls for each channel to adjust volume individually.

4.   REMOTE GAIN CONTROLS FOR EACH CHANNEL

Each room can run by an optional remote gain control designed 
reduce volume in each room.

5

FUSED FAULT INDICATORS

.   

Though we have taken every conceivable precaution to ensure 
long lasting and trouble-free operation, occasionally a unit will 
malfunction.  For  that,  we  have  made  diagnostic  simple:  each 
mono block is equipped with two (10 Amperes) fuses designed to 
protect and monitor the voltage of operating rails (+/-). Each fuse 
carries its own fault LED indicator that illuminates when the fuse 
is burnt.

When one or more of these LEDs is illuminated, this means that 
unit needs maintenance or repair. 

6

OUT PUT BINDING POSTS

.   

Binding post speaker outputs allow users to split wires or use 
banana plugs for easy connections and bridging.

7.   MASTER LEVEL CONTROL

Master level control, when channels are switched to bus.

8

12-VOLT 

.   

DC TRIGGER

Turn ON the amp via 12V DC trigger

9

FUSED AC INPUT

.   

Built in main power fuse

10. 3-PRONG POWER CONNECTION

Easy to use and replaceable power connector.
