Operation Instructions 
 
 
1. Power Switch 
 
After having connected the input to the preamplifier and the output to the 
speaker,  V100A 
Reference
 
amplifier can be switched on using the power switch 
located on the rear panel. 
If you own a VP100 
Reference
 preamplifier, connect the BNC stand-by cable from 
the preamplifier to an V100A 
Reference
 amplifier BNC input, then connect the 
BNC output of this same block to the BNC input of the other channel amplifier. 
Your stand-by mode can now be activated. 
It is advised not to switch off the V100A 
Reference
, to fully and instantly benefit 
from its maximum musical quality. However, if you are meant to keep away for a 
long time (as for holidays), or in the case of any storm risk, it is considered safe 
to switch the appliance off, with the rest of your Hi-Fi elements. 
 
 2. 
Operations 
 
Stand-by mode is accessible from the remote control of the VP100 
Reference
 pre-
amplifier, or using the stand-by switch at the back. Let this switch on the auto 
position if you own the VP100 
Reference
 preamplifier. Stand-by mode allows to 
reduce dramatically the energy consumption of the appliance. Once awoken 
(disabling the stand-by mode), the amplifier will provide its optimum musical 
quality after only 15 minutes, whereas  the first operation will require more than 
4 hours of warm-up (as will require any main switch-on) to reach this same 
level. An amplifier under stand-by mode has its front LED lighted in RED, while 
GREEN in normal mode. 
 
At first power-on, some light buzzing sound may be heard for about a 
minute within the speakers. This is due to the current initialization 
within the circuits. 
 
The V100A 
Reference
 mono block offers 2 inputs (1 unbalanced RCA and 1 bal-
anced XLR). The choice of the input is made using a switch (2-positions selector) 
at the rear of the appliance. 
The “unbalanced” position correspond to the RCA “Cinch” input. 
The “balanced” position correspond to the XLR input.
