OPERATION
7
Operating this component is a simple procedure. Each unit is designed for long term stability in
virtually any home operating situation. However, if the unit is operated outside the parameters
outlined in this owner's manual, damage may result. Please read this manual carefully before
putting your new component into operation.

SWITCHING ON
POWER button
• Press once to turn the power “ON”.
• Press again to set to the "OFF" position and turn the power off. The amplifier will enter
into Standby and the blue LED will light.
POWER ON indicator
• The backlit etched Crystal 3D logo lights when the power amplifier is turned ON.
STANDBY indicator
• The indicator lights when the power amplifier is switched to standby mode.
BREAKING-IN
• The CAA 1 requires at least 100 hours of continuous operation after it is first turned on
to sound its best. This gives the materials in various circuit components a chance to
"form" so audio signals achieve greater definition, smoothness and transparency.
Although the unit will sound spectacular when you first operate it, you will find it
worthwhile to listen again after a few days and you'll discover details in your music you
may not have noticed were there.
