ADVANCED MANUAL / TH quattro THESIS The Project The roads travelled to reach “the Sound” have created a conceptual cross-road, where state of the art digital technology and traditional techniques have gone their separate ways. They both have benefits of a different nature, yet are capable of merging together to achieve much higher Sound quality levels. The Thesis amplifiers are born from these considerations.

ADVANCED MANUAL / TH quattro Electronic Crossover Representing a high-end solution, the simplicity and power of the analog system found in the HV venti is thrust forward again in the TH, making use of the amplifiers versatility. The crossover ONLY acts on the amplifier power output, not on the PRE OUT output which is always a bypass. The alignment is a Butterworth type as, when either of the TH amplifiers is set up in a mono configuration, the slope of the filter can be set for 24 dB Oct operation.

ADVANCED MANUAL / TH quattro THESIS ASC (AMPLIFIER STATUS CONTROLLER) The TH amplifiers ASC unit is the operational interface, programmed to control all of the amplifier’s functions. The user can interact with the microprocessor which, without interfering with the sound, will provide control for any possible adjustments. This manual section is especially thought for those who want to get the most of these amplifiers exclusive features.
ADVANCED MANUAL / TH quattro ASC - Amplifier Status Controller Functions Description 2 3 1 Default display 4 2 • MENU: this switch enables the ASC and shows the first available entry. Each time this switch is pushed while the amplifier is normally working, the ASC displays the first available entry, not the last you worked on.
ADVANCED MANUAL / TH quattro ASC - Amplifier Status Controller Setup Amplifier: Main Input The first step to set the amplifier up is to select the main input the TH will use to get the signal. As soon as you turn the amplifier on, the PRE analog input is selected by default. By changing this entry the user can also take advantage of the other operational modes. From next time you turn the TH on, it will use the last selected entry. If another input is used, the DRC is required.
ADVANCED MANUAL / TH quattro Digital Inputs How to adjust the volume control and input selector using a digital source In the following pages you will find examples of how to connect the TH to a system driven by sources using the digital input. In order to use the TH IN OPTICAL digital input and therefore its D/A internal converter the DRC Digital Remote Control MUST be connected to the TH amplifier.
ADVANCED MANUAL / TH quattro Front Panel How to achieve same output volume level using an analog source (with its own volume control) and a digital source Once you have adjusted the system, therefore once the amplifiers input sensitivity has been adjusted, you can adjust the digital sourcet volume level so that when selecting the analog or the digital source no difference in sound is perceptible while listening.

ADVANCED MANUAL / TH quattro ASC - Amplifier Status Controller Setup Amplifier: Amp ID on 4 Ch Mode AMP ID stands for Amplifier IDentification. The AMP ID is a way to identify the task the amplifier performs inside the system. The AMP ID does not affect the electric functioning and does not act on the amplifier electronic crossover. The AMP ID is fundamental to adjust Volume, Balance, Fader as well as Sub Volume when the DRC is connected.

ADVANCED MANUAL / TH quattro ASC - Amplifier Status Controller Setup Amplifier: Amp ID on 2 Ch Mode In this configuration the TH quattro is like a Stereo amplifier. You can assign the AMP ID as a Stereo model.
ADVANCED MANUAL / TH quattro ASC - Amplifier Status Controller Setup Amplifier: Amp ID-Preout The AMP ID can also be assigned to the PRE OUT output. This function is extremely useful in case the TH amplifier is added to a pre-existing system featuring not only TH amplifiers or if you want to add to the TH system a non-TH amplifier. This way you can anyway know the non-TH amplifier function as well as adjust its volume.
ADVANCED MANUAL / TH quattro Front Panel How to adjust the PRE OUT analog output As already said, the AMP ID can also be assigned to the PRE OUT output, but not only to it. Through the AC Net software also the PRE OUT sensitivity can be adjusted to align the gain of the amplifier connected to that output, thus adapting sensitivity according to the system general volume increase and decrease. The procedure to perform this operation is the following: 1- Connect the (non-TH) amplifier to the PRE output.
ADVANCED MANUAL / TH quattro ASC - Amplifier Status Controller Setup Amplifier : X-Over Slope of bridged channels (B) with TH quattro in 3 Ch mode When the amplifier is set in 3 Ch Mode, you can choose the crossover filter slope of the B (bridged) channels. Select 1- 12 dB/oct: in this case, the Low-pass slope switch on the TH-MXR module will not be active.
ADVANCED MANUAL / TH quattro ASC - Amplifier Status Controller DUAL POWER & BIAS CONTROL A revolutionary function called Dual Power was introduced for the first time in the HV venti. Controlling the amplifier’s output power configuration, this function allowed the predetermination of the amplifiers output power and of the grade of the outputs operational class.
