> Introduction Welcome to the Primare A32 Amplifier! This chapter introduces you to its key features, and explains how you can take advantage of its impressive power handling and superb sound in your system. WELCOME TO THE A32 AMPLIFIER The A32 is a high-power fully-balanced power amplifier which combines no-compromise analogue design, for supremely low noise and distortion, with Comprehensive protection The A32 is fully protected against overheating, shorted speaker terminals, and DC leakage.
> Introduction Burn-in Due to the circuit used in the A32, it requires a significant burn-in period before it will perform at its maximum. USING THE A32 WITH OTHER PRIMARE PRODUCTS Although the A32 is flexible enough to act as the output stage in virtually any system, it is ideal for use with other products in the Primare range, such as the Primare PRE30 Preamplifier and CD31 Compact Disc Player, and one or more A32 amplifiers can be powered on or off remotely from a PRE30 using the remote trigger output.
> Connecting the A32 Amplifier This chapter explains how to connect the A32 to the other components in your system, using the connections on the back panel.

> Connecting the A32 Amplifier POWER CONNECTION Connect the mains power using the enclosed mains cable. Note: Always disconnect the amplifier and the rest of your equipment from the mains power before connecting or disconnecting any of the cables. amplifier to settle down the relays are turned on to connect the loudspeakers to the amplifier outputs. During the start-up sequence the A32 performs a self check, and if a problem is detected the Standby indicator will flash rapidly.
Connecting the A32 Amplifier < RS232 PORT The RS232 port allows the A32 firmware to be upgraded, and can be used to control the A32 using Crestron compatible RS232 codes. For more information contact Primare. 5 §2 Connecting.
