Connect your amplifi er 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 amplifi er; then, plug the other end of 
the cordset to the AC mains. 

Amplifi ers don’t create energy. The AC mains volt age 
and current must be suffi cient to deliver the power you 
expect. If the AC line voltage varies out of an acceptable 
range, the amplifi er’s power supply turns off and the 
blue Power LED fl ashes. The amplifi er will turn back on 
when the AC line voltage returns to safe operating 
levels. Figure 3.10 pro vides voltage limits for all 
amplifi er AC voltage con fi gurations. Also, the amplifi er 
must be run within the specifi ed mains frequency 
requirements (indi cated on the amplifi er’s back panel 
label). If you are unsure of the output voltage of your 
AC mains, please consult your electrician.

Use the following procedure when fi rst turning on 
your amplifi er:

1.  Turn down the level of your audio source. 

2.  Turn down the level controls of the amplifi er.

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 amplifi er 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.
