Cautions

1. All operating instructions should be read before using this

equipment.

2. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not open the unit.

There are NO USER REPLACEABLE PARTS INSIDE. Please

refer servicing to a qualified service technician.

3. Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or to a heat source

such as a radiator or stove.

4. This unit should be cleaned only with a damp cloth. Avoid

solvents or other cleaning detergents.

5. When moving this equipment, it should be placed in its original

carton and packaging. This will reduce the risk of damage

during transit.

6. DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

7. DO NOT USE ANY SPRAY CLEANER OR LUBRICANT ON ANY

CONTROLS OR SWITCHES.

Connection

1. Be sure that POWER (1) is in the OFF position. All connections

must be made with all equipment OFF.

2. Before plugging in the power cord, make sure the VOLTAGE

SELECTOR SWITCH (14) is set to the correct voltage.

3. For best sound use only high quality audio cables for your hook

up. Make sure all cables are pushed in securely.

4. Use the LINE IN (11) jacks to attach your input signal to the P-

801. Make sure that you correctly attach the left and right

cables. You can use either RCA or 1/4" connectors.

5. There are two supplied AC OUTLETS (13), one unswitched

(Max. 500W) and one switched (Max. 400W), which allow the

electrical hook up of other units.

6. The P-801 provides two pairs of SPEAKER OUTPUT

TERMINALS (12) to enable you to run two sets of speakers.

You can either use banana plugs or bare speaker wire for your

connections.

7. A GND TERMINAL (9) is provided for grounding the P-801 to

your other equipment.

8. Make sure that the FAN (10) is not obstructed.

Operation

1. POWER ON: Once you have made all source connections to

your P-801, press the POWER (1) button, the power will turn on

and the POWER LED (2) will illuminate GREEN.

2. PROTECTION LED: The PROTECTION LED (3) illuminates

RED when the amplifier overheats or when a shorted load or

DC is detected on the amplifier output. The amplifier will reset

itself when the problem is corrected.

Note: When you first turn on the power, the

PROTECTION LED will illuminate for a few seconds.

This is normal.

3. SPEAKER SELECTION: The P-801 is capable of handling two

sets of speakers. To select, push the proper SPEAKER

BUTTONS (4). You can select either A, B or both A & B.

4. VOLUME CONTROL: You can easily control the output level to

your speakers (the volume) by using the rotary VOLUME

CONTROLS (5, 6). VOLUME CONTROL (5) adjusts the left

channel and VOLUME CONTROL (6) adjusts the right channel.

5. BUILT IN FAN: The P-801 is equipped with a built in FAN (10).

This allows the inside of your unit to be cooled and to prevent

overheating. Never obstruct or disconnect the fan.
