NEVER make or break connections to any amplifier when it is switched on. Failure to
observe this precaution could result in damage to the amplifier and your loudspeakers.
M.
Balanced input connectors:
Connect to sources having balanced outputs. If a source has both
balanced and unbalanced outputs, we recommend that the balanced input is used as this will usually
produce superior results.
N.
12V trigger output.
When connected to another device that has a compatible input, switching the
Emperor Integrated amplifier on, will automatically switch this unit from standby mode to on. Switching
the Emperor Integrated amplifier off, will automatically switch this unit back to standby mode. This is most
often used in home theatre systems to control projectors and motorised screens, where, due to their
location, easy access to their power switches may not be available.
O.
Direct In switch:
Puts the amplifier into Direct In mode, isolating the preamplifiers and power amplifier
sections and allowing direct connection to the power amplifiers section. The switch will light up when the
amplifier is in Direct In mode. This will also be indicated in the display.
P.
12V trigger output.
When connected to another device that has a compatible input, switching the
Emperor Integrated amplifier on, will automatically switch this unit from standby mode to on. Switching
the Emperor Integrated amplifier off, will automatically switch this unit back to standby mode.
Q.
Preamplifier section unbalanced outputs:
Provides an output from the preamplifier section allowing
up to two more power amplifiers to be connected so that a tri-amped system may be set-up.
R.
Loudspeaker output terminals
: Connect to your loudspeakers.
S.
Preamplifier section balanced outputs:
Provides an output from the preamplifier section allowing
up to two more power amplifiers to be connected so that the tri-amped system can be set-up.
T.
Power supply label:
Shows which power supply voltage range the unit has been set for.
If this does not cover the voltage of the power supply you plan to use, do not attempt to
use the amplifier and consult your dealer.
U.
Power inlet:
Insert the power cable here.
V.
Power switch:
This is the main power switch. When installing the unit, this should be in the off position
as shown in figure 3.
