Initial Setup and Power Switch Operation

Pre-Connection Checks

Verify voltage selector matches supply and check/replace fuse (15) if necessary.

Power Switch Functionality

Main power switch (1) is active unless remote switching via A700/A720 is used.

Power Switch Variations by Serial Number

Type 0 units have disabled power switch; Type I units require switch to be pressed for remote operation.

Power Switching Methods

Remote Power Switching

Remote on/off switching via input (13) when connected to REVOX A700/A720.

Manual Power Switching Adaptation

Requires internal wiring modification by a technician for manual control, refer to sections 7.2 and 7.3.

Input Connections and Signal Requirements

5-Pin Input Socket (13)

Connects to control units (A720/A700) for remote operation. Use NWAN-420 cable.

RCA (CINCH) Input Sockets (16/17)

Alternative inputs for source connection. Requires 0.75V for 60W output.

Loudspeaker Outputs and Power Limiting

Speaker Output Connections

Connect speakers to sockets A (12) and B (11). Minimum 4 Ohms per speaker.

Speaker Group Selection

Use buttons 4 (A) and 5 (B) to switch speaker groups on/off.

Output Power Limitation
