Positioning the unit
Place your amplifier on a level, firm surface. Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight or near sources of heat or damp. Ensure adequate ventilation. Do not place the unit in an enclosed space such as a bookcase or cabinet as both of these will impede air flow through the ventilation slots.

Arcam A90 amplifier

+ Right speaker

Connecting to loudspeakers
The red and black terminals on the back of the amplifiers are used to make the connections to the loudspeakers. You can connect one or two pairs of loudspeakers to your amplifier, provided each pair is rated between 816. (If one or both pairs have an impedance of less than 8, the combined load on the amplifier falls below 4 and could cause an overload.) The pair designated speaker 1 (SP1) are connected to the lower set of terminals, while the pair designated speaker 2 (SP2) are connected to the upper set of terminals. To connect one pair of loudspeakers, use the SP1 terminals. When connecting the speaker terminals of the amplifier with the terminals on the speakers, make sure that like polarities are matched (i.e., match + with + (usually red) and with (usually black)). Mismatching of polarities will result in a weak central sound, unclear orientation of the instruments and the sense of direction of the stereo being impaired. There are two options for connecting the speaker cable to the amplifier:

Wiring your loudspeakers

Using spade terminals:
1. 2. 3. Loosen the terminal by turning it anti-clockwise Insert the spade connecter under the terminal. Tighten by turning clockwise.
Connecting to a power supply

Wrong plug?

Check that the plug supplied with the unit fits your supply and that your mains supply voltage agrees with the voltage setting (115V or 230V) indicated on the rear panel of the unit before plugging in.
If your mains supply voltage or mains plug is different, consult your Arcam dealer or Arcam Customer Support on +44 (0)1223 203200. The product must be earthed.

Mains lead

The appliance is normally supplied with a moulded mains plug already fitted to the lead. If for any reason the plug needs to be removed, it must be disposed of immediately and securely, as it is a potential shock hazard when inserted into the mains socket. Should you require a new mains lead, contact your Arcam dealer.
Using bare wire ended leads:
Strip back the insulation on the wire to reveal about 2cm of conductor (the metal inside the cable). 2. If the conductor is stranded, twist the strands together tightly to avoid loose strands making contact with the adjacent terminals or the back panel. 3. Loosen the terminal by turning it anti-clockwise 4. Insert the twisted wire through the hole in the terminal. 5. Tighten by turning clockwise. When making connections with stranded bare ended wires, take great care that no individual strands of wire come into contact with the adjacent terminals or with the back panel. If this should happen, it will cause a short circuit on the output of the amplifier and could damage the amplifier. A90/P1.

Plugging in

Push the plug (IEC line socket) of the power cable supplied with the unit into the socket (POWER INLET) in the back of the unit. Make sure it is pushed in firmly.
Put the plug on the other end of the cable into your power supply socket and switch the socket on.

Standby power

For remote standby operation, the amplifiers control power supply is kept powered up all the time the unit is connected to the mains supply. The front panel power switch powers down all other circuitry. Power consumption in this mode is less than 2W. This means that even though the power switch is off, it may be possible to hear a slight residual hum coming from the mains transformer inside the amplifier. This is perfectly normal. If the unit is to be left unused for an extended period, we recommend that it is disconnected from the mains supply by switching it off at the wall socket.
TRIG OUT AND REMOTE IN (12V in and out) These connections are intended for use in multi-room installations. unit is switched on (i.e., not off or in standby). This signal can be used to switch on automatically power amplifiers (or other equipment) connected to the A90, as they will come on when the A90 is activated. This is useful if the power amplifier is remote from the A90, or otherwise difficult to access. REMOTE IN This allows remote control signals to be received by the A90 if the remote sensor is covered (or otherwise not visible to the remote control). An external sensor is used to receive the signals from the remote control, which are then fed to the A90 (into this input) using a suitable cable. Remote control signals acceptable to the A90 must be in modulated RC5 format, with a voltage level of between 5V and 15V. Note that in normal use there is no need to make any connections to these sockets. If you would like to make use of these features, please contact your dealer for more advice on how to make the connections and on what type of cable to use. English

TRIG OUT This output provides a 12V signal whenever the
Connecting to other equipment
The use of high quality interconnect cables to and from your amplifier is recommended to ensure the best sound quality. Sockets marked L (and R) on your amplifier should only be connected to sockets marked L (and R) on other equipment. All the line inputs have the same sensitivity and may be used with equipment other than that labelled, if needed. TAPE1/RECORD OUT Connect these output sockets to the input sockets of your cassette deck (usually labelled RECORD). TAPE1/PLAY IN Connect these input sockets to the output sockets of your cassette deck (usually labelled PLAY). If you do not have a cassette deck you can use this input for other (line level) equipment, such as a CD player, tuner, VCR, etc., but not a turntable. VCR/TAPE2 RECORD OUT These output sockets can be connected to the input sockets of VCR/second recorder (usually labelled RECORD). VCR/TAPE2 PLAY IN Connect these input sockets to the output sockets of your VCR/second recorder (usually labelled PLAY). Alternatively, you can use this input for other (line level) equipment such as a CD player, tuner, etc., but not a turntable. DVD player.
Pre/power amplifier connections
To use your integrated amplifier as a power amplifier, connect the output of your pre-amplifier to the PWR IN sockets.

PWR IN

Press in the PRE/PWR switch on the rear panel to select separate pre-amp/power amp mode. Under these circumstances your A90 has exactly the same specification and performance as a power amplifier (see page 10). To use your integrated amplifier as a preamplifier, connect the PRE OUT sockets to the input sockets of your power amplifier. With a power amplifier of the correct gain (e.g. the P90 power amplifier) you can bi-amplify (bi-amp) suitable loudspeakers, giving significant improvements in sound quality (see page 12).

PRE OUT

bm Connect this input to the audio outputs of a DVD
AV Connect this input to audiovisual equipment such as a VCR, laserdisc player, satellite or Nicam tuner. TUNER Connect this input to the audio outputs of your radio tuner. CD Connect this input to the audio outputs of your CD player or DAC (digital to analogue converter). AUX Connect this input to the audio outputs of any unit with a line level output, e.g. tape deck, tuner etc. NOTE: The AUX inputs must not be used if the phono module is fitted. When this is fitted AUX becomes an output carrying the equalised phono signal at line level. PHONO As standard, phono inputs are blanked. Phono inputs are provided on a separate plug-in module which your Arcam dealer or distributor can supply and fit. This module is compatible with most high output moving coil and moving magnet cartridges (MM) and low output moving coil cartridges (MC). MM or MC is selected via the MM/MC back panel switch. Phono earth terminal For connecting your turntable earth lead (if fitted). Note that this terminal must not be used as a safety earth.

Source selectors

These buttons select the source connected to the corresponding input. A light above the relevant button indicates which input is currently selected and it will also usually be shown on the display.
This socket accepts headphones with an impedance rating between 8 and 2k, fitted with a 1/4-inch stereo jack plug. If you wish to listen on headphones only, use the SP1 and SP2 buttons (if necessary) to mute the speakers. The headphone socket is always active.
This input is similar to the other line level inputs on the amplifier and may be used with a VCR or a second recording unit (e.g. cassette deck).

Remote control receiver

The remote controls infrared receiver is positioned to the left of the RECORD button. Ensure the receiver is in a clear line of sight from the remote control to allow signals to be received.

and headphones connected to the amplifier, and of the pre-amp output (PRE OUT). when used in conjunction with the SELECT and ENTER buttons, to customise amplifier settings (see page 8).

Recording

English A90/PWith the Arcam A90 it is possible to listen to and record from one source, or to listen to one source while recording another. Both sets of tape sockets are identical in sensitivity and suitable for use with almost any type of recorder (cassette, CDR, MD, VCR, reel-to-reel, etc.). The record signal is sent to both the TAPE and VCR output sockets.

RECORD

To record the currently selected source, press RECORD until the display shows RECORD SOURCE. After a few seconds the display reverts to showing the volume level and you are ready to record. To listen to one source while recording another, press RECORD again until the display shows RECORD followed by the name of an input (e.g. AUX, CD, TUNER, etc.). Now press the source selector button on the front panel for the source you wish to record. Your selection is shown on the display for a few seconds, after which it reverts to showing the volume level and you are ready to record. The RECORD button can also be used as a second zone selector, sending a source signal at line level to a second amplifier operating in another room. If you need help with this, contact your Arcam dealer or Arcam customer support.

Tape-to-tape copying (dubbing)
You can perform tape dubbing from VCR to TAPE, but not from TAPE to VCR. For example, to copy from a cassette recorder connected to the VCR socket to a cassette recorder connected to the TAPE 1 socket, first use the RECORD button as explained above and select RECORD VCR. This routes the VCR signal to the TAPE output. Set the cassette recorder connected to the TAPE socket into its record mode and the other to playback mode to start dubbing.
To play back the recording from a cassette deck attached to the TAPE 1 input, press TAPE. TAPE 1 is shown on the display. Selecting this input overrides the other source selectors. It is also possible to monitor a recording while it is being made, provided your cassette deck is a 3-head type. To do this, press TAPE. Switching this button in/out allows an A/B comparison between the source signal and the recorded signal.

Tone Control Global or Per source. This specifies the scope of changes for Bass and Treble tone settings. The default setting is Global which affects all inputs equally. Per source allows you to set tone controls for individual inputs: once set, the amplifier remembers tone settings for each input. Processor Mode This mode enables you to adjust the gain of the amplifier. The amplifier can then be used to drive the front left and right speakers in a surround sound system when fed from a separate processor. You can then control the volume of the entire system using the processor, feeding the sound into the TAPE input. Set the gain to match the amplifiers that drive your other loudspeakers.
Welcome message You can change the power on Welcome message from Arcam INTEGRATED AMP to display your name, postcode, etc. When customising the message, use the UP and DOWN buttons to select the cursor position and the Control knob to change the letter.

Remote switching

By making a connection from the REMOTE IN socket of the P90 power amplifier to the TRIG OUT socket of the A90 integrated amplifier, you can use the A90 to switch the power amplifier on and off. If configured in this way, the front panel POWER button of the A90 (or the POWER/STANDBY button on the remote control) switches both amplifiers on and off together. This facility allows you to conceal the power amplifier yet still control it. The connecting cable required is a 3.5mm to 3.5mm jack lead (stereo or mono) and it is possible to connect several power amplifiers to an A90 by daisy chaining from TRIG OUT of one P90 into the REMOTE IN of the next.
amplifier or the PRE OUT sockets of an integrated amplifier.
MONO LINK The power amplifier can be adapted to provide
two mono loudspeaker outputs from a single input. Pull out the link supplied and use it to connect the L and R AUDIO OUT sockets together. Using one power amplifier per loudspeaker will enable you to bi-amplify bi-wireable loudspeakers. This is particularly beneficial for top quality stereo installations with a separate pre-amplifier, or where amplifiers are provided for the left, centre and right channel loudspeakers in a five speaker Dolby Pro Logic or Dolby Digital system. Contact your Arcam dealer for more information. Daisy chaining The power amplifier can be connected to further power amplifiers to drive more speakers (e.g. those in other rooms or tri-amplified speakers, etc). Connect the extra power amplifier inputs to the AUDIO OUT sockets on the power amplifier, left to left, right to right.

Three channel option

The power amplifier can be upgraded from stereo to three channels by adding a Third Channel Module: in this case, the model is designated P90/3. The module offers extra loudspeaker terminals together with a third set of AUDIO IN and OUT phono sockets and converts the P90 into a 3 x 90W (RMS per channel into 8) amplifier suitable for Home Cinema or multi-channel audio use. Contact your Arcam dealer for further details.

Switches the unit on and off. The light indicates the status of the amplifier. When you switch your amplifier on, the light glows amber for a few seconds, during which time the speakers are disconnected. The light changes to green when the amplifier is ready for use. A red light means the amplifier is in standby mode. The power light may flash if a fault has occurred, with the colour of the flashing light indicating the nature of the fault:

These buttons allow you to select and deselect the main (SP1) and secondary (SP2) sets of speakers attached to your amplifier. An indicator light shows which set of speakers are currently selected. NOTE: If both lights are out the amplifier will appear not to work, as all speakers are switched off.

Except for a thermal fault, if one of the above faults is detected by your amplifier the unit waits for six seconds before checking to see if the fault has cleared. If the fault clears within six seconds, then the unit continues operation; otherwise the unit shuts itself down. In the case of a thermal fault, the unit waits until its sensor temperature lowers before resuming operation. If the amplifier has shut itself down, you should unplug the amplifier and leave it for a few minutes before reconnecting. If the fault cannot be cleared, unplug your amplifier and contact your Arcam dealer.

Bi-wiring and bi-amping loudspeakers

Before you start

WARNING: Do not make any connections to your amplifier while it is switched on or connected to the mains supply. Before switching on please check all connections thoroughly, making sure bare wires or cables are not touching the amplifier in the wrong places (which could cause short circuits) and you have connected positive (+) to positive and negative () to negative. Always ensure that the volume control on your amplifier is set to minimum before starting these procedures.

Bi-amping your system

The performance of your system can be further enhanced over that achieved with bi-wiring, by extending the principle one stage further to include separate amplification for the low and high frequency drive units in each loudspeaker enclosure. Connect the integrated amplifier to the high frequency (HF) terminals and connect the power amplifier to the low frequency (LF) terminals.

You will need:

Speakers with four input terminals each (as with bi-wiring): these will be marked HF (High Frequency) and LF (Low Frequency). Two amplifiers one of these would be the A90 and the other an Arcam power amplifier (e.g. P90). Loudspeaker cables two pairs of cables per loudspeaker or a suitably terminated cable set. Interconnect cables one pair of high quality interconnect cables.

Bi-wiring your loudspeakers
Bi-wiring improves the sound of your system because it divides the high and low frequency signal currents into separate speaker cables. This avoids signal distortions arising from the high and low frequency currents interacting with one another within a single cable, as in conventionally wired systems.
How to set up a bi-amped system
1. Remove the terminal links on the rear of your loudspeakers. WARNING: This step is essential or damage to your amplifier may result which is not covered under warranty. 2. 3. Connect the cables as shown in the diagram below, ensuring correct polarity at all times. Use the interconnect cables to connect the PRE OUT sockets of the A90 to the corresponding AUDIO IN sockets of the power amplifier.
Speakers with four input terminals each: these will be marked HF (High Frequency) and LF (Low Frequency). Loudspeaker cables two pairs of cables per loudspeaker (which may be joined at the amplifier end if your amplifier has only one pair of output terminals per channel), or a suitably terminated cable set.

Service information
Before returning your amplifier for service, please check the following:
With two pairs of low impedance speakers connected,
overloads are more likely. Overloading the amplifier may cause it to shut down because of overheating. Note that because of the high output voltage from a CD player, it is possible to drive the A90 at full power even though the volume is not set at maximum.
Sound cuts out for no reason
If the temperature of the internal heatsink rises above a safe level, then a thermal cutout inside the amplifier will operate. The power indicator on the front panel flashes and the protection system temporarily removes the power to the speakers. The system resets itself as the heatsink cools down.
Amplifier does not switch back on
The A90 and P90 amplifiers have a protection mechanism which is activated if you switch the unit on immediately after turning it off. If this mechanism activates, wait 30 seconds then try again.
