Standby
The standby function may
also be operated with the
remote control.
The Ayre AX-7 is very energy-efficient, and only
consumes about as much power as a standard light
bulb when playing. If you wish to further reduce
power consumption when not playing music, the
unit may be placed in standby mode. In standby
mode, the output stage is turned off and usage of
electricity is minimized.
Processor Pass-Through
When using the Ayre AX-7 in a surround-sound
system for home theater, it is desirable to use the
“Processor Pass-Through” mode. This mode allows
your two-channel music sources to be routed
directly through the AX-7, avoiding the sonic
degradation of most processors, and at the same time
allows the front two channels of the theater system
to integrate with the AX-7 with the touch of a
single button.
If you are using a surround-sound processor, connect
the front left and right outputs of the processor to
one of the inputs on the AX-7. Please note that the
AX-7 can accept either balanced or unbalanced
signals.
To activate the “Processor Pass-Through” mode for
that input, remove the AC power from the AX-7 for
at least 10 seconds. Then, while pressing the input
selector button corresponding to the chosen
surround-sound processor input, re-connect the AC
power.
