Ayre Acoustics AX-7E Stereo Amplifier User Manual


 
Display
The display of the AX-7e may be turned off, if
desired. A single blue light indicates that the
display is turned off. When further commands are
received, either from the front-panel buttons or the
remote control, the display will be activated for a
few seconds to confirm the command, and then turn
off automatically. Pressing the “Display” button
again will turn the display on.
Standby
The Ayre AX-7e 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-7e 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-7e, 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-7e with the touch of a
single button.
