Amplier Gain Switch (P1)
This switch is to allow the gain of the P1 amplier to be changed to suit your system requirements.
With the switch in, the gain is set to standard ARCAM gain of 31.5dB. This is the normal setting,
which allows the P1 to be used in systems where there are other ARCAM power ampliers (excluding
the Arcam P7).
With the switch out, the gain is set to ‘THX standard gain’. Use this setting if your P1 is to be used in
systems containing ampliers with THX gain (for example, the Arcam P7).
Daisy chaining
Both the P35 and the P1 can be connected to further power ampliers to drive more speakers (e.g.,
those in other rooms, tri-amplied speakers, etc). This technique is called ‘Daisy chaining’.
Connect the AUDIO OUT sockets on the P35/P1 to the pre-amp. input of the next amplier in series, left
to left, right to right.
Remote switching
By making a connection from the TRIG OUT socket of the C31 pre-amp. to the REMOTE IN socket of
your P35/P1, you can use the C31 to switch the power amplier on and off. If congured in this way,
the front panel POWER button of the C31 (or the POWER button on the remote control) switches both
ampliers on and off together. This facility allows you to position your power amplier in a remote
location (such as close to the speaker it is amplifying), yet still control it.
The connecting cable to use is a 3.5mm jack lead, wired as given on page 5. It is possible to connect
several power ampliers to a C31 by ‘daisy chaining’ from the TRIG OUT of one power amplier into the
REMOTE IN of the next.
