Installation and wiring

Carefully unpack the unit and store the original packing material carefully. The
carton and packing are specially designed for this unit and will be needed again
if you wish to move the equipment at any time.
If you have to transport the device, it must always be carried or sent in its original
packaging in order to prevent damage and defects.


The device is extremely heavy - caution is required when unpacking and
transporting it. Always lift and transport the device with two persons.
Legal requirements pertaining to the lifting of heavy loads prohibit the transport
of the device by women.
Ensure that you have a firm, secure hold on the device. Do not let it fall. Wear
safety footwear when moving the device. Take care not to stumble. Ensure an
unobstructed area of movement by removing obstacles and possible
hindrances from the route.
Take care when lowering the device! To avoid your fingers being crushed,
ensure that they are not trapped between the device and the support surface.
If the unit gets very cold (e. g. when being transported), condensation may form
inside it. Please do not switch it on until it has had plenty of time to warm up to
room temperature, so that any condensation evaporates completely.
If the device has been in storage, or has not been used for a protracted period
(> two years), it is essential to have it checked by a specialist technician before
re-use.
Before placing the unit on sensitive laquer or wood surfaces please check the
compatibility of the surface and the unit's feet on a non visible point and if
necessary use an underlay. We recommend a surface of stone, glass, metal or
the like.
The unit should be placed on a rigid, level base (See also chapter
“Safety
notes”
). When placing the unit on resonance absorbers or anti-resonant
components make sure that the stability of the unit is not reduced.
The unit should be set up in a well ventilated dry site, out of direct sunlight and
away from radiators.
The unit must not be located close to heat-producing objects or devices, or
anything which is heat-sensitive or highly flammable.
Mains and loudspeaker cables, and also remote control leads must be kept as
far away as possible from signal leads and antenna cables. Never run them
over or under the unit.

 Notes on connections:
A complete connection diagram is shown in 'Appendix A' .

Be sure to push all plugs firmly into their sockets. Loose connections can
cause hum and other unwanted noises.

When you connect the input sockets of the amplifier to the output sockets on
the source devices always connect like to like, i. e. 'R' to 'R' and 'L' to 'L' . If you
fail to heed this then the stereo channels will be reversed.

The device is intended to be connected to mains outlet with protective earth
connector. Please connect it only with the mains cables supplied to properly
installed mains outlets with protective earth connector.

To achieve maximum possible interference rejection the mains plug should
be connected to the mains socket in such a way that phase is connected to
the mains socket contact marked with a dot (

). The phase of the mains
socket can be determined using a special meter. If you are not sure about
this, please ask your specialist dealer.
We recommend the use of the

'POWER THREE' ready-to-use mains lead in
conjunction with the 'POWER BAR' mains distribution panel, which is fitted with a
phase indicator as standard.
When you have completed the wiring of the system please set the volume
control to a very low level before switching the system on.
The screen on the MP 3100 HV should now light up, and the unit should
respond to the controls.
If you encounter problems when setting up and using the amplifier for the first
time please remember that the cause is often simple, and equally simple to
eliminate. Please refer to the section of these instructions entitled
' Trouble
shooting ' .
