Using the Controls
Power
This front panel button will manually switch the AMP Three on or off. A multicolored LED indicates its
power status. To use the Auto On feature, leave this front panel switch in the on position.
Speaker Selector
The AMP Three has two pairs of speaker outputs. Press button A to activate the A outputs. Press button
B to activate the B outputs. Both A and B outputs may be used simultaneously, provided the combined
impedance does not fall below 2 ohms.
Note: Before pressing either of the speaker selector buttons, be sure that the level controls are set at the minimum position.
Input Level Controls
These knobs adjust the incoming signal level and thereby act as volume controls. We recommend that these
be set to max and your signal source (receiver, CD player, preamplifier, etc.) be used to adjust the volume.
