Welcome to Ayre Your Ayre V-6xe 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 V-6xe is easy to connect and use. The following guidelines will ensure that the installation goes smoothly. Location Do not stack the Ayre V-6xe directly with other components, as this may restrict the air flow or induce hum into the audio circuitry.
RCA connectors accept signals from unbalanced sources, while the XLR connectors are for balanced sources. A small toggle switch near the input connectors selects either the balanced or unbalanced inputs. When you have a choice, a balanced connection will offer slightly higher sound quality than an unbalanced connection.
Loudspeaker Outputs The heavy-duty output terminals of the Ayre V-6xe work best with speaker cables using spade lugs. The Ayre V-6xe drives the loudspeakers with balanced outputs. Since none of the output terminals are grounded, connecting any of them to ground may result in damage to the amplifier.
Controls and Operation The Ayre V-6xe has a front panel control for normal stand-alone operation. The amplifier may also be controlled via a “trigger” input in a home-theater. Power Switches The master power switch on the rear panel also incorporates a circuit breaker that acts as a resettable fuse.
In the green “Standby” mode the output stage is turned off, while the input circuitry remains powered. This allows the unit to warm up quickly for optimal sonic performance, while reducing the power consumption from 60 watts per installed channel to 20 watts.
Repeating this procedure will revert the unit back to the level-sensitive mode, as indicated by the status LED slowly flashing red (about 1 Hz). In the pulse-sensitive mode, a positive-going pulse edge will toggle the amplifier between the “Standby” and “Operate” states, duplicating the action of the front-panel switch.
Numbers and Specifications Power Output 150 watts per channel continuous into 8 ohms 300 watts per channel continuous into 4 ohms Input Impedance 100 k Ω – unbalanced inputs 200 k Ω – balanced.
10 In Case of Trouble The Ayre V-6xe provides comprehensive protection for both the amplifier and your loudspeakers, including faults that may occur in your source components. Overheating Sensors located on each audio module will shut the amplifier off if the heatsink temperature reaches 175° F (80° C).
Rail Fuses Indicator LEDs on the rear of the unit will glow red when one of the fuses blows. Please refer fuse replacement to a qualified service technician. Internal fuses on the power supply rails of each channel protect the loudspeakers from excessive current, as well as the amplifier from short-circuits.
DC Offset The Ayre V-6xe incorporates a circuit to detect the presence of DC at the output terminals. In this situation, the amplifier reverts to the red “Warm-Up” mode, and power is immediately removed from the output stage.
