Connecting Loudspeakers There are many different ways of connecting loudspeakers to your SA30 amplifier. The following section describes how to connect the speakers and amplifier for the most common configurations. Single Wiring R L DIGITAL IN NET If each speaker has more than one pair of connecting terminals, use the terminals labelled ‘ or ‘Low Frequency’ on your speakers.
EN Bi-Amping Bi-amping is the separation of the amplification of low and high-frequency signals over two amplifiers. Bi-amping requires the use of two amplifiers per channel. Normally, your SA30 is used to drive the high frequency (treble) speakers, while aNETsecond amplifier (such as the Arcam PA240) is used for the lower (bass) frequencies.
Operation Switching On Selecting An Audio Source Analogue Audio Inputs USB The button switches the unit on and off. The status indicator LED indicates the state of the amplifier: it changes from red to orange then white if mains power is connected and the unit is switched on. Audio sources can be selected either using the front panel or when the remote control, by pressing the required button, labelled as , , , , , , , , , or .
EN ARC/eARC input Connect this to the HDMI video input of your display device. It is compatible with HDMI Enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC) as well as standard Audio Return Channel (ARC). If you have a supported television then sound from the television’s internal tuner (e.g. Freeview, Freesat, DVB-T) will be available using the SA30’s ‘Display’ input. Note: To enable CEC to bring the SA30 out of standby NET STANDBY needs to be set to ON. See “Net Standby” on page EN-21.
Connecting to a Network In order to use the AirPlay and Chromecast built-in functionality of the SA30 you will need to connect it to your home network via a wireless or wired connection. The following sections detail how to do this. Note: Before attempting to setup a wireless connection ensure the supplied wireless antenna is fitted to the antenna socket on the rear of the SA30. Note: When the wired connection is used the wireless connection is automatically disabled.
Dirac Live for Arcam There is a proprietary automatic loudspeaker setup function built into your SA30 from Dirac Research. Using a PC/Mac based application, this attempts to set all the essential speaker settings for all the speakers in your system. It also calculates room equalisation (Room EQ) filter values to remove some of the worst effects of resonant frequencies in the listening room.
Remote Control The remote control is a sophisticated ‘universal’ back lit remote control that can control up to 8 devices. It is preprogrammed for use with the SA30 and Arcam CD and Blu-Ray players. With its extensive library of codes it can also be used with thousands of third party AV components. See the list of codes at the back of this manual Useful information Backlight A backlight comes on for eight seconds whenever a key is pressed. This helps you use the handset in subdued lighting conditions.
EN Device Mode/Source keys As the remote can control your Receiver as well as a range of other equipment: many of the buttons have more than one function depending on the ‘device mode’ selected on the remote control. The Device keys select the source on the SA30 If one of these keys is pressed briefly, a command is transmitted to change the source on the unit. Also the functionality of the remote control changes to operate the selected source device.
BD CD BD/DVD Device Mode AV CD Device Mode The BD Device Mode button selects BD as the source. The CD Device Mode button selects CD as the source. The button is configured to control the BD functions of Arcam BD players, this can be changed (see “Locking/ Unlocking a specific Device Mode” on page EN-23). The button is configured to control the CD functions of Arcam CD players, this can be changed (see “Locking/ Unlocking a specific Device Mode” on page EN-23). Toggles power between standby and on.
EN STB STB Device Mode SAT PVR SAT Device Mode PVR Device Mode The STB Device Mode button selects STB as the source. The SAT Device Mode button selects SAT as the source. The PVR Device Mode button selects PVR as the source. If configured to work with your set top box decoder or similar device, the remote can subsequently control the device. If configured to work with your satellite receiver, the remote can subsequently control the device.
Setup Menu The setup menu allows you to configure various aspects of the SA30 integrated amplifier. Entering Setup Menu To enter the setup menu, press the remote control or front panel. key on the Navigating The Setup Menu The setup menu can be navigated by using the remote control or pressing the front panel keys that correspond to the function shown on the display, as shown below.

Max Net Vol Limits the maximum volume setting the SA30 can be turned up to for streamed content.
Customising the Remote Control Code learning The supplied remote comes with a complete library of pre-programmed codes. After you have set up the remote for your device, you may find that there are one or more functions on your original remote which do not have a place on the keypad. For convenience, the remote offers a Code Learning feature that allows you to copy up to 16 functions from an original remote control onto the remote keypad.
EN Locking/Unlocking a specific Device Mode , and are the Device keys that may be Locked or Unlocked. Lock and Unlock are toggles (they change from Lock to Unlock to Lock, etc.). When you first unpack your remote and insert the batteries, it is able to control certain Arcam components automatically (e.g. BD players, Amplifiers, Tuners and CD Players).
