5 Please take special note of the following precautions before operating your new amplifier: • The Plinius 8100 Integrated Amplifier can deliver in excess of 100 watts into 8 ohms. This amplifier is also capable of a very large peak current delivery.

7 RECORD SELECTOR This rotary switch allows recording of any of the six different inputs available on the back panel. Note that when recording, the source that is being listened to will not be interfered with. For example, it is possible to be listening to the CD input whilst recording from the TUNER input.
8 This panel incorporates all the terminals for connecting the input signals from your CD player, tuner, etc, and the outputs to the loudspeakers and mains supply. Please remember that your Plinius 8100 Integrated Amplifier is a high quality electronic instrument capable of an exceptional level of performance.
9 TAPE OUTPUTS These RCA outputs are situated next to the tape RCA inputs, and are provided to interface to a pair of line level recording devices. The position of the record selector on the front panel determines from which device a recording is being made.
10 PLACEMENT AND VENTILATION Your Plinius 8100 operates at a moderately high temperature, especially when being driven hard. The ideal location is upon a rigid stand, or floor mounted away from direct contact with any temperature sensitive materials or deep pile carpets.
11 It is important that you connect your loudspeakers (outputs) and source components (inputs) to the Plinius 8100 Integrated Amplifier correctly to ensure the amplifier is not damaged, and sounds its best with your system.
12 BI-WIRING Bi-wiring uses two pairs of loudspeaker cables for each channel loudspeaker. You will notice that the rear panel of your Plinius 8100 has two pairs of output terminals for this purpose. When using bi-wires, always connect positive (+) to positive (+) and the same for the negative (-) terminals.
13 REMOTE CONTROL Provided with your Plinius 8100 is a three function remote control. The two buttons at the top of the remote adjust the volume level, and the button below switches the amplifier in and out of mute. Two AAA batteries power the remote, and these are replaced by removing the two posi-drive screws holding the bottom plate in place.
14 MAINS/LINE FUSE A Mains/Line fuse is fitted within the IEC socket on the rear of the amplifier. A small drawer at the bottom of this socket may be removed (after the IEC plug is removed) by levering it out with a flat blade screwdriver. The fuse fitted should be rated at no greater than 5 amps slow blow.
15 Your Plinius 8100 Integrated Amplifier is designed for use with high fidelity loudspeakers. It should not be used to operate with any other type of appliance or equipment. Choice of loudspeakers is one of personal taste, providing the chosen loudspeakers are suitable for use with your amplifier.
