3.7 Connect to AC Mains
Connect your amplifier to the AC mains power source
(power outlet) with the supplied AC power cordset.
First, connect the IEC end of the cordset to the IEC
connector on the amplifier; then, plug the other end of
the cordset to the AC mains.
WARNING: The third prong of this connector
(ground) is an important safety feature. Do not
attempt to disable this ground connec tion by
using an adapter or other methods.
Amplifiers don’t create energy. The AC mains volt age
and current must be sufficient to deliver the power you
expect. If the AC line voltage varies out of an acceptable
range, the amplifier’s power supply turns off and the
blue Power LED flashes. The amplifier will turn back on
when the AC line voltage returns to safe operating
levels. Figure 3.10 pro vides voltage limits for all
amplifier AC voltage con figurations. Also, the amplifier
must be run within the specified mains frequency
requirements (indi cated on the amplifier’s back panel
label). If you are unsure of the output voltage of your
AC mains, please consult your electrician.

3.8 Startup Procedure
Use the following procedure when first turning on
your amplifier:
1. Turn down the level of your audio source.
2. Turn down the level controls of the amplifier.
3. Turn on the “Power” switch. The Power
indica tor should glow.
4. Turn up the level of your audio source to an
optimum level.
5. Turn up the Level controls on the amplifier until
the desired loudness or power level is achieved.
6. Turn down the level of your audio source to its
normal range.
If you ever need to make any wiring or installation
changes, don’t forget to disconnect the power cord.
For help with determining your system’s optimum
gain structure (signal levels) please refer to the
