Installation: A65 and A75
Positioning the unit
Place your amplifi er on a level, fi rm 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 fl ow through the ventilation slots.
Connecting to loudspeakers
Your amplifi er is fi tted with loudspeaker terminals to BFA
(British Federation of Audio) standard specifi cation.
BFA loudspeaker terminals
SP1 DIRECT terminals
3
Are switched off when a headphone jack plug is inserted in the headphone socket co on the front of the amplifi er or, by pressing the
MUTE
button on the remote control handset.
SP2 SWITCHED terminals
4
Are switched off when a headphone jack plug is inserted in the headphone socket co on the front of the amplifi er or, by pressing the
MUTE
button on the remote control handset.
If you want to connect speakers for occasional use (perhaps in another room), connect them to these terminals. They can be turned off easily by releasing the front panel switch cn
.
Volume control settings
It is important to realise that the position of the volume control is not an accurate indication of the power delivered to your loudspeakers. The amplifi er will often deliver its full power long before the volume control reaches its maximum position particularly when listening to heavily recorded compact discs.
However the amplifi er also has to be capable of giving full power output from much lower level sources, such as tuners and cassette decks. Using these sources, the volume control setting may be much higher before distortion (audible overload) sets in.
The terminal will accept spade terminals, bare wires or a
BFA plug. BFA plugs are available from your Arcam dealer. To connect a bare wire or spade terminal unscrew the red (or black) part of the loudspeaker terminal fi rst.
Insert the wire or spade terminal and screw it back up.
CAUTION: Do not over tighten the loudspeaker terminals or use a wrench, pliers, etc., as this could cause damage to the terminals which will not be covered under warranty.
Connect the right hand speaker to the terminals on the back of your amplifi er marked R and the left speaker to the terminals marked L.
Connect your loudspeakers so that the red (positive/+) terminal on each loudspeaker is connected to the red (positive/+) terminal on the amplifi er. Your loudspeaker cables may be marked to show polarity (negative/– and positive/+), if not, then the positive terminal can usually be identifi ed by a ridge or coloured marking.
Now connect your loudspeakers’ black (negative/–) terminals to the black (negative/–) terminals on the amplifi er.
Ensure that no stray strands of inner wires are allowed to touch another cable or the amplifi er’s casing. This can cause a short circuit and damage your amplifi er! Two pairs of speakers may be connected at the same time provided each pair is rated between 8 and 16
Ω. If one or both pairs have an impedance of less than 8
Ω, the combined load on the amplifi er falls below
4
Ω and could cause an overload. If so, the overload protection circuit engages and the amplifi er will not work.
Connecting to a power supply
Wrong plug?
Check that the plug supplied with the unit fi ts your supply and that your mains supply voltage agrees with the voltage setting
(120V or 230V) indicated on the rear panel of the unit.
If your mains supply voltage or mains plug is different, consult your Arcam dealer or Arcam Customer Support on +44
(0)1223 203203.
Mains lead
The appliance is normally supplied with a moulded mains plug already fi tted 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.
Plugging in
Push the plug (IEC line socket) of the power cable supplied with the unit into the socket ( ) in the back of the unit. Make sure it is pushed in fi rmly.
Put the plug on the other end of the cable into your power supply socket and switch the socket on.

Wiring your loudspeakers
Connecting to other equipment
All of the input sockets (except
PHONO
) have the same sensitivity and may be used with equipment other than that labelled, if you need to do so.
The use of high quality interconnect cables to and from other hi-fi equipment is recommended to ensure the best sound quality (sonic performance). Ask your Arcam dealer’s advice on cable selection.
AV PROCESSOR/TAPE switch
br
(A75 only)
If you are using the amplifi er with an external processor such as a Dolby Pro Logic or Dolby Digital decoder you should select the AV processor. Connect the left and right audio output sockets of your processor to the corresponding AV/DVD input
8
. Press and hold the
TAPE MONITOR
switch br
for fi ve or more seconds, the amplifi er switches to a fi xed gain. This allows the volume control of your processor to act as a master control and adjust the sound level of the speakers attached to both the A75 and the processor simultaneously. If you then switch back to another input, for example,
CD
, the volume control is switched back in circuit again and the amplifi er functions as normal. You may hear a slight ‘click’ when you switch to another input. This is normal.
WARNING: If the
AV PROCESSOR/TAPE switch is set to
AV PROCESSOR
and the LED is illuminated, do not use the
AV/DVD
socket for any equipment except a processor with its own volume control. Otherwise this could result in a signal being sent to your loudspeakers at high levels which may damage the loudspeakers.
PRE-AMP OUT
5
You will only need to use these sockets if you have a separate power amplifi er. To use your amplifi er as a preamplifi er connect these sockets to the input sockets (
POWER AMP IN
or
PWR AMP IN
) of your power amplifi er. If your power amplifi er is an Arcam P75, P85 or Alpha series you can use it in conjunction with the power amplifi ers in your integrated amplifi er to bi-amplify suitable loudspeakers. See the section ‘Bi-wiring and bi-amping loudspeakers’ for details.
TAPE RECORD OUT

Power indicator
cq
When the amplifi er is switched on, this will initially glow orange.
After a few seconds it will glow green and a slight click may be heard (as the output muting relay disengages). When the indicator glows orange, the speakers are disconnected and an internal protection circuit is working.
If the indicator glows orange during normal use it may be due to an amplifi er output overload. Switch the amplifi er off and wait for 2 to 3 minutes before switching on again.
If the indicator continues to glow orange, switch the unit off, remove all the speaker cables and switch on again.
If the indicator then goes to green when switched on this indicates a problem with the speakers or speaker cables.
Check the speakers and speaker cables for short circuits before reconnecting them. If the indicator continues to glow orange with no speakers connected, contact your Arcam dealer.
Note that the power indicator glows orange when the amplifi er is muted from the remote control.
Remote control receiver
cr
Make sure nothing is standing in front of the remote control receiver, otherwise messages from the remote control handset cannot be received and it will appear not to work!
Recording onto tape
To record from another piece of hi-fi equipment (an input source), e.g. CD, to a tape deck connected to the amplifi er, fi rst select the
CD
input with the input selector bq
. Set your tape deck into its record mode. Press
PLAY
on your CD player.
The CD signal will now be recorded onto your cassette deck.
If your cassette deck is a 3-head type it is possible to monitor the actual recording on the tape. To do this push the
TAPE
button br
in. Switching this button in/out enables you to do an A/B comparison between the source signal and the recorded signal.
Using a remote control
The A65 and A75 offer remote control of the input selection, volume control and mute via the CR-389 remote handset supplied. It may also be possible to operate these functions with other remote control handsets that use the Philips RC-5 protocol.
If the amplifi ers are muted via remote control, the power indicator glows orange. To cancel the mute function, press
MUTE
again or either of the volume up/down buttons on the remote control handset. If you mislay the handset after muting the amplifi er, turn it off with the

Installation: P75 power amplifi er
The P75 power amplifi er can be used in conjunction with the A65 and A75 integrated amplifi ers (or other Arcam amplifi ers) to bi-amplify loudspeakers that have two pairs of input connections (i.e. are bi-wireable). The P75 can also be used with a pre-amplifi er such as the Arcam 9C or an AV processor or amplifi er with
PRE-AMP OUT
sockets.
Loudspeaker connections
Connect up following the instructions for installing the A65 and
A75 integrated amplifi ers (see page 4).
Connecting to other equipment
PWR AMP IN
5
Connect these sockets to your preamplifi er output sockets.
Alternatively, if you are using an integrated amplifi er (as your pre-amp) such as the A65, A75 or Alpha series amplifi ers, connect the
PWR AMP IN
sockets to the
PRE AMP OUT
sockets on those amplifi ers.
MONO LINK
6
The P75 can be adapted to provide two mono loudspeaker outputs from a single input.
Pull out the U-link
8
supplied and use it to connect the
MONO LINK
sockets
6
together.
Utilising one P75 power amplifi er per loudspeaker will enable you to bi-amplify bi-wireable loudspeakers. This is particularly benefi cial for top quality stereo installations with a separate preamplifi er, or for the left, centre and right channel loudspeakers in a fi ve speaker Dolby Pro Logic™ or Dolby Digital™ system.
Contact your Arcam dealer for more detailed information.
DAISY CHAIN
The P75 is capable of driving further P75 amplifi ers (or any other power amplifi er), to drive more speakers (e.g. those in other rooms or tri-amplifi ed speakers etc). Connect the extra power amplifi er inputs to the
MONO LINK
outputs
6
left to left, right to right with suitable high quality phono to phono cables.
Connecting to a power supply
Connect up following the instructions for installing the A65 and
A75 integrated amplifi ers (page 4).
CIM MODULE
7
The CIM (custom install module) is an optional module that enables you to adjust the gain of the left and right channels of the power amplifi er independently and also to switch the power amplifi er on/off remotely, with a 12 volt trigger. The CIM module would normally be used in a multi-room set up. When a CIM module is fi tted into a power amplifi er, the front panel power switch is disabled.
See your Arcam dealer for further information.

Bi-wiring and bi-amping loudspeakers
Before you start
WARNING: Do not make any connections to your amplifi er 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 amplifi er 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 amplifi er is set to minimum before starting these procedures.
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.
You will need:
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 amplifi er end if your amplifi er has only one pair of output terminals per channel). Or, a suitably terminated cable set (a loom, probably prepared by your dealer and capable of being used for bi-wiring in one length).
How to bi-wire loudspeakers
1. Remove the terminal links on the rear of your loudspeakers
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 amplifi cation for the low and high frequency drive units in each loudspeaker enclosure.
Connect the amplifi er to the high frequency (HF) terminals and connect the power amplifi er 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 amplifi ers – one of these would be the A65 or A75 and the other an Arcam power amplifi er (e.g. P75).
Loudspeaker cables – one pair of cables per loudspeaker or a suitably terminated cable set (a loom, probably prepared by your dealer and capable of being used for bi-amping in one length).
Interconnect cables – one pair of high quality interconnect cables.
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 amplifi er may result which is not covered under warranty.
2. Connect the cables as shown in the diagram below, ensuring correct polarity at all times.
3. Use the interconnect cables to connect the AUDIO PRE-
OUT sockets of the A65 or A75 to the corresponding
PWR AMP IN sockets of the power amplifi er.
WARNING: This step is essential or damage to your amplifi er may result which is not covered under warranty.
2. Connect the cables as shown in the diagram below, ensuring correct polarity at all times.
