855

 

Dual Mono Power Amplifier

 

 

Setting up 

 
 

Place the 855 in the location in which you intend to use it. Do not try to move 
the amplifier when there are cables connected or when it is switched on. 
Connect your other components using high quality interconnects and speaker 
cables. Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables is correct. Now, plug 
your power amplifier into the mains. Before you do this, use a phase finder to 
determine which conductor on your distribution board is live. The live 
conductor should be connected to the pin marked red on the 855's IEC socket. 
 
 

Switching on and off 

 
 

Switch the 855 on with the power switch on the rear of the unit. The 855 is 

 now 

in 

standby

  mode.  The  blue  'on'  LEDs  will  illuminate  briefly.  To  switch 

 

the unit on and off, press the POWER button. When using the  SYSCOM  cable, 

 

the power amplifier will power up at the same time as the preamplifier. 

 

The blue LEDs remain illuminated during normal operation. 

 

SYSCOM 

 

If the 855 is linked to an 800-Series master unit, the latter takes over remote on 
and off switching. Remote switch-on is only possible when the 855 is in 
standby mode. It is also possible for a component in the chain from another 
manufacturer to remotely switch the 855 on and off via a Remote link. The 
switching voltage must be between 5V and 12VDC. 
Lindemann audiotechnik can supply adapter cables upon request.
