Reference Series User’s Manual
Resulting from continued extensive development design, the twin MOSFET
amplifiers provide the engine to power the perfectly matched ultra long throw
woofers. The power supply has been designed to provide the requirements of Instant High
Current incorporated in all Reference Series. We use Double Insulated Toroidal transformers
designed specifically for this audio application. To aid this the capacitors used are large bucket
type with a ripple current of 10 Amps each and selected because of their high temperature and
minimal loss characteristics. The transistors used are the Lateral Metal Oxide Semiconductor
Field Effect type and specifically designed for this audio application.
Amplifier
D.A.M.P. (Digitally Accurate MicroProcessor)
Digitally Accurate Microprocessor controlled crossover circuit (D.A.M.P.). Your
“Reference Series” has the ultimate in sophisticated crossover circuits. Twin Digitally Accurate
Microprocessor controlled crossover circuits (D.A.M.P.), incorporate twin digital displays so that
the upper response limit can be set in musically accurate variable increments between 20hz and
120hz. An LFE bypass facility is activated at above 120hz of the LFE controls (Lro) selectable
parameter with a fixed 200hz roll off. All functions are controlled and monitored via microproces-
sor. This development has enabled the complete and highly accurate settings to become part of
user pre-set memories which will enable the user to store desired settings for different music
sources and or music genre’s. The control of all these functions can be made even more flexible
by the use of Smart Remote. For the best user experience we suggest making full use of the
Smart Remote feature. (See next page for details)
Crossover
D.I.P. (Dynamic Intelligent Protection)
This circuit monitors the output and the input of the amplifier and ensures that no clipping occurs.
Additionally the microprocessor monitors all thermal activity and ensures that the amplifier output
stages remain within safe working area specifications. This is a complex and highly integrated
circuit which continually monitors specific areas and makes the appropriate action should the
need arise.
Sleep (auto power off)
This circuit monitors the inputs and wakens the circuits from sleep when a signal is present.
Depending on the stored setting for the APO menu item the circuits will fall into sleep mode when
lower signal levels are present for the set time. Settings are: 1 - 5 - 10 - 20 - and 30 mins. Sleep
and wake-up can also be activated by external trigger from other equipment. Additionally using
the remote, either Smart Remote App power button or ir remote sleep button will activate sleep.
NOTE:
If the unit is placed into sleep manually by using the remote sleep button then it will remain in
sleep mode indefinitely until brought back to active service by pressing the sleep button on the
remote once again. Please be aware that the Auto On feature is not active under these circum-
stances. Auto on will only activate a wake state when the unit has been placed in sleep by APO.
Note:1 Store Your Settings!
Be sure to store your settings as you make adjustments so that they can be recalled in the future.
By doing this you can save settings which are best suited for your own tastes of music or movie
content.
Resetting Factory Default Data:
Should you wish to reset the system back to factory default state then turn the power off and
hold down the DATA button and power up. All settings will be returned back to Factory Default.
