INTRODUCTION THANK YOU!... for choosing the Manley 50 Watt Monoblock Amplifiers. Designed around the concept that less is more, the Manley 50 Watt Monoblock Amplifiers use only the best available components, with the shortest and cleanest signal path possible, and with the use of our own milling equipment we can provide you with an amplifier that looks as good as it sounds. We have developed a magnetics winding department right here at Manley Labs where we design and wind the audio transformers.
MAINS CONNECTIONS Your amplifier has been factory set to the correct mains voltage for your country. The voltage setting is marked on the serial badge, located on the rear panel. Check that this complies with your local supply. Export units for certain markets have a moulded mains plug fitted to comply with local requirements. If your unit does not have a plug fitted the colored wires should be connected to the appropriate plug terminals in accordance with the following code.
CONNECTING YOUR AMPLIFIER Setting up your amplifier is rather easy. 1. Connect all source components (turntable, CD, Tuner, Tape DAT, etc.) to your preamplifier. 2. Connect the interconnects from the output of the preamplifier or switching center to the RCA input on the top rear of the amplifier. 3. Connect the hot or "+" speaker cable to the red binding post and the common or "-" speaker cable to the black binding post (See diagram 2).
BIAS PROCEDURES The Manley 50 Watt Amplfier is a fixed bias system that requires very little attention. If you wish to adjust or check the bias, complete the following steps. For this procedure you will need a multimeter to read millivolts (less than 2 volt range) and a small flat screwdriver. 1. Looking at the front section of the top plate of the amplifier, you can see 4 red tip jacks and 1 black tip jack.
OPERATIONAL NOTES SWITCHING ON The power switch is located on the lower left hand corner of the front panel. Push the top of the rocker switch (1) to turn on the amplifier and the bottom of the rocker to turn off the amplifier. The LED on the right side of the front panel will illuminate indicating that the amplifier is operating. Do not turn on and off the amplifier in rapid succession. RUNNING It is not recommended that you leave your amplifier permanently switched on.
