AVR100

Connecting to other equipment

Monitor output

Both composite and S-video monitor outputs are provided for

connection to the ‘Video line in’ of your TV, monitor, or projector.

If you have both Composite and S-video inputs connected

to your AVR100 you need only connect the S-VIDEO Monitor

Output to your TV (provided that your TV accepts an S-video

input).

Loudspeaker outputs

Before connecting loudspeakers to your AVR100 you must set

the Impedance switch on the rear to the correct position.

WARNING: Never adjust this switch with the power on

or you will damage the AVR100.

If your loudspeakers are rated at 6Ω or lower set the switch to

the 4–6Ω position. If your loudspeakers are rated higher than

6Ω, set the switch to the 8Ω position.

WARNING: This unit should only be used with

loudspeakers with an impedance rating between 4Ω

and 8Ω.

The AVR100 is ﬁ tted with loudspeaker terminals in line with BFA

(British Federation of Audio) standard speciﬁ cation. The terminal

will accept spades, bare wire or a BFA plug. To connect spades

or bare wires, unscrew the end of the terminal, insert the wire

or spade and screw back up. Ensure that no stray strands of

wire are allowed to touch other cables or the AVR100’s casing

as this can cause a short circuit and damage the ampliﬁ er.

Bi-wiring and Bi-amping loudspeakers

Notes on these techniques are given in the Reference section

of this handbook.

Preampliﬁ er outputs

If you wish to upgrade your system by adding a power ampliﬁ er,

always specify an Arcam unit to ensure matching gain.

The AVR100 has six line-level pre-amp outputs that can be

connected to Arcam external power ampliﬁ ers to bi-amplify

(‘bi-amp’) any of the channels. Alternatively, the AVR100 can be

used solely as a preampliﬁ er.

Depending on how your system is conﬁ gured, the subwoofer

PRE-AMP OUT should be connected using a line level

interconnect, to either:

■ an active subwoofer, or

■ a power ampliﬁ er used to drive a passive subwoofer.

Headphone output

A 1/4” stereo jack socket is provided on the front panel for

headphone listening. Inserting the jack socket automatically

mutes the loudspeaker and pre-amp outputs from the AVR100.

Connecting to a power supply

Wrong plug?

Check that the plug supplied with the unit ﬁ ts your supply and

that your mains supply voltage agrees with the voltage setting

(120V or 230V) indicated on the rear panel of the unit.

If your mains supply voltage or mains plug is different, consult

your Arcam dealer or Arcam Customer Support on +44 (0)1223

203203.

Mains lead

The appliance is normally supplied with a moulded mains plug

already ﬁ tted to the lead. If for any reason the plug needs to

be removed, it must be disposed of immediately and securely,

as it is a potential shock hazard when inserted into the mains

socket. Should you require a new mains lead, contact your

Arcam dealer.

Plugging in

Push the plug (IEC line socket) of the power cable supplied with

the unit into the socket (AC INLET) in the back of the unit. Make

sure it is pushed in ﬁ rmly.

Put the plug on the other end of the cable into your power

supply socket and switch the socket on.

Non-use periods

If the unit is to be left unused for an extended period, we

recommend that you switch the unit off from the front panel

button, rather than use ‘stand by’ mode with the remote control.
