Handleiding

AC Mains Voltage (115V)

Before Making Any Audio Connections

Always turn off your JCA100 and disconnect the AC cord before making or changing any input, output, or

trigger wire connections. Inserting or removing an input or output cable while the JCA100 and your preamp

are turned on can result in a blast of sound that can damage your loudspeakers.

AC Power Cord

The AC cord supplied with your JCA100 is a high-quality IEC type cord. Please connect it directly to an

AC wall outlet or power conditioner that is always “live.” If possible, plug your JCA100 into the same AC

outlet that your preamplifier is plugged into. If different AC outlets are used for the JCA100 and other

components, (including a TV or video projector) the ground potential may be higher or lower between the

outlets, resulting in audible hum.

Rear Panel Controls & Audio Connections

Always disconnect the AC cord to your JCA100 before making or changing any input, output, or trigger wire

connections. Inserting or removing an input or output cable while the JCA100 is turned on can result in a

blast of sound that can damage your loudspeakers. Make sure there is no strain or tension on any

cables that could cause them to pull loose.

Bias Level Switch

The Bias Level switch offers two bias settings for the output transistors. In its Normal (up) switch position,

the output stage is biased to allow for full Class A operation into 8 ohms. In its Low (down) position, bias idle

current is lowered so that the output stage operates in Class A at low power levels, and Class B at high

power levels. This is known as Class AB operation and will cause the amplifier to run at a lower temperature

compared to the Normal (Class A) position.

With its Bias Level switch set to Normal, the JC A100 will run at a higher temperature and consume more

AC power even when it is idling or playing music at low listening levels. For ultimate sound quality and

performance, we recommend the Normal (up) position. However, the amplifier will run cooler with its Bias

Level switch set to Low(down).

Examples of when to use the Low Bias setting:

• If the JCA100 is getting too hot (if you can’t keep your hand on the heatsink for at least 5 seconds,

it is too hot).

• The JCA100 is installed in a cabinet.

• The JCA100 is installed in a rack without forced air ventilation.

• Another component is placed on top of the JCA100.

• You wish to reduce energy consumption.

• Your room temperature is above 82
