Welcome to Ayre Your Ayre AX-7e offers a significant advance in the musical performance of high-fidelity equipment. The warmth and immediacy of a live performance are apparent from the first listening. The combination of superb resolution and a natural, relaxed quality will draw you into the music, time and time again.
Connections and Installation The Ayre AX-7e is easy to connect and use. The following guidelines will ensure that the installation goes smoothly. Location Be sure to provide at least three inches (75 mm) of air space above the unit. A good location for your integrated amplifier is in an open-backed cabinet or on a shelf.
while unbalanced connections are made via RCA connectors. When you have a choice, a balanced connection will offer slightly higher sound quality than an unbalanced connection. The FET switches used in the input selector circuitry offer transparent, noise-free switching, with no moving parts.
If a recorder is not installed in your system, the “Moon” input performs exactly like the other unbalanced inputs. If you are connecting a recorder to your system, be sure to connect its outputs to the “Moon” input of the AX-7e. This will prevent the undesired possibility of creating a feedback loop when making a recording.
Controls and Operation The Ayre AX-7e integrated amplifier may be controlled using either the front panel buttons or the included remote control handset. Remote Control The supplied remote control handset can operate both the AX-7e integrated amplifier as well as an Ayre CD player.
metal-film resistors to create a volume control with crystal-clear transparency and no moving parts. The volume control comprises 66 individual levels, each with a step size of 1.0 dB allowing for precise selection of the desired volume setting. The volume level is changed by pressing the black bar above the front-panel display.
Input Source Selection The input selector buttons are located at the right side of the unit. Icons that match the connector labels on the rear panel (Star, Planet, Comet, Moon) are used to denote the inputs. When the unit is first connected to an AC power source, the “Star” input is selected by default.
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.
If you are using a surround-sound processor, connect the front left and front right outputs of the processor to one of the inputs on the AX-7e. Please note that the AX-7e can accept either balanced or unbalanced signals. To activate the “Processor Pass-Through” mode for that input, remove the AC power from the AX-7e for at least 10 seconds.
To clear the “Processor Pass-Through” mode from an input and restore normal operation, remove the AC power from the AX-7e for at least 10 seconds. Then, while pressing the “Mute” button, re-connect the AC power. Break-In 100 to 500 hours of music played through the system will ensure full break-in.
