Mark Levinson
Banana plugs can also be used to connect the speaker cables to the
loudspeaker binding posts. Banana plugs are not available on the
230 VAC model.
Caution! DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN the binding posts. The innovative design
of these binding posts provides more leverage; hence,
high-contact, tight pressure connections are achieved when
finger-tightened.
DO NOT FORCE the binding post “wings” over a bent or over-
sized connector. Doing so may damage the binding post.
Trigger Input and
Output
The rear panel of the Nº532 has two trigger connectors – one input
and one output. The trigger input can receive a 3-12V DC signal
from a connected component. The trigger output passes through
the trigger input signal, enabling a daisy-chain of amplifiers to be
controlled by a single trigger signal.
The triggers enable the power amplifier to be automatically powered
on or put into Standby or Power Save mode, by the state of other
devices in the system. The Nº532 can also affect other power
amplifiers in the same manner.
Receiving a trigger signal causes the Nº532 to change its power state.
If the Nº532 is powered on, then 0V on the trigger signal puts the
amplifier into Standby or Power Save mode. Conversely, an
amplifier in Standby mode is powered on when 3-12Vdc is received
on the trigger input.
Power Save Mode
Switch
The Power Save Mode switch on the rear panel enables the
energy-saving mode.
• When set to ON, the amplifier enters the Power Save mode
when the amplifier power is turned on. The Standby button
switches the amplifier between the Power Save and On modes.
• When set to OFF, the amplifier enters Standby mode when the
amplifier power is turned on. The Standby button switches the
amplifier between the Standby and On modes.
When the Power Save mode is active, AC power is only connected
to the low-voltage power supply, communication circuits, and
control circuits. Therefore, nonaudio functions such as ML Net and
Link2 are active, but the audio circuits are NOT powered. This
means that there may be a small delay before the amplifier is fully
operational when taken out of Power Save mode.
