Read Me First
Congratulations! You have purchased a remarkable preamplifier. Audiophiles who want to experience the
P-9’s full potential should allow for the break-in period all high-quality audio components require. With
your volume control set to a typical listening level, a 75-hour break-in is recommended, typically achieved
by playing discs. The power amp does not need to be on.
For optimum performance, we suggest placing the P-9’s two boxes next to each other.
WARNING!
Connect the provided 15-pin DC and control cable between the two boxes
before
applying
AC.
WARNING!
Use only a grounded AC power cord. Always turn on the preamp before turning on the
power amp. When powering off, turn off the power amp first.
WARNING!
Do not connect or disconnect the RCA input or output cables when the P-9 is in the ON
position.
WARNING! AC Input
- Every NuForce P-9 is shipped with a specific AC voltage setting: 100VAC,
117VAC, and 230VAC within a tolerance of +/- 10%. The units are not designed for universal AC
application. Note: Nuforce cannot assume responsibility for damage resulting from incompatible AC
voltages.
Installing Batteries in Nuforce P-9 Remote Control
Batteries are not pre-installed with the P-9 because of tighten air-cargo security measures. To install
batteries, remove the only Philips head screw (2
nd
screw from the left as shown below) on the P-9 remote
control and slide out the base plate. Please use a #3 Philips head screwdriver to prevent stripping the
screw.
Quick Set-up Instructions
Connect the 15-Pin Control cable between the Control Box and Audio Box.
Connect a source component (CD player, for example) to Input 1. Connect the Pre-Out RCA or XLR
interconnects to your amplifier’s inputs. Make sure that the On/Off switch is in the
Off
position before
inserting the provided AC cord into the AC wall outlet.
For the P-9’s initial turn-on, be sure to follow these two steps:
