jack allows you to remotely turn the Ar-
chitect ON and OFF by applying a 12-volt
trigger, should your system design require
this. Do not plug head-phones in this
jack!! You do not have to normally use
this trigger since the Architect is equipped
with Signal Sensing inputs. The amplifier
will turn on once an audio signal is pres-
ent on the RCA inputs and the LED will
turn on.
Main Inputs –
These RCA inputs connect
to your preamplifier’s outputs. Any stan-
dard line level audio signal can be con-
nected to these inputs.
Main Outputs –
These unbalanced RCA
outputs send a buffered audio output to
daisy-chain multiple Architect amplifiers
together.
Auxiliary Input –
This input allows you
to feed a secondary audio source into your
Architect amplifier like the signals from
a bedroom TV, portable audio player, or
such. This input is triggered On by ap-
plying 12-volts to the

Auxiliary Input Trigger –
Hopefully you
read the previous sentence to know what
this 1/8” connector does.
Auxiliary Input Active LED –
This LED
turns Red when you apply +12 volts to the
Aux 12V Trigger Input.
Signal Present –
When an audio signal is
present on the Main or Auxiliary inputs,
this LED will light.
Input Level Controls –
This screwdriver
adjustment controls the input sensitivity
of the Architect amplifier. The sensitivity
is variable from 0 -1 volt. A safe setting is
with the slot at 12 o’clock.
Mono/Stereo –
Pushing in this button will
sum the left and right audio stereo inputs
into a Mono signal. This is particularly
useful when bridging the Architect. See
page 19 for more information. The Red
LED indicator above the switch will light
when this active.
Speaker Outputs
–
These terminal blocks
are designed to make an installer smile.
You can unplug the blocks and connect all
of the speaker wires to them without bal-
ancing the Architect on your lap. This also
