USER SERVICABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL!
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with dry cloth.
7. Do not block any ventilation openings. The ventilation should not be impeded
by covering the ventilation openings with items such as newspaper, table-
cloths, curtains etc. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
8. Do not install near heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves,
or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. No open flame
sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the apparatus.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding type plug.
A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding
type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or
third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into
your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
MAGNETIC FIELD: !!CAUTION!! Do not locate sensitive high-gain equipment such as preamplifiers or tape decks directly above or below the unit. Because
this amplifier has a high power density, it has a strong magnetic field, which can induce hum into unshielded devices that are located nearby. The field is
strongest just above and below the unit. If an equipment rack is used, we recommend locating the amplifier(s) in the bottom of the rack and the preamplifier
or other sensitive equipment at the top.
EXPLANATION OF
SAFETY SYMBOLS
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user of the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
The lightning flash with the arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the products’ enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude
to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at the
plugs, convenience receptacles, and at the point of exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use attacheements/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or
table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with
the apparatus. When a cart or rack is used, use
caution when moving the cart/apparatus
combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
• WARNING: TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARD, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. THE APPARATUS SHALL NOT

6. Bass and Treble Controls
These controls can adjust bass and treble frequencies +/- 12dB at 100Hz
and 10kHz.
7. Interupting Line Input
This is the secondary input, use MAIN IN for your main input.
INTERRUPTING INPUT can be used if a second source is desired and
takes over when signal is present and has at least a 5mV level.
When there is no signal, or a signal with less than 5mV level, the amp
switches back to MAIN IN after a brief delay.
8. Main Input/Output
MAIN IN should be used as the “primary” or main input for the a mplifier.
Connect your receiver or main source to this input. Main out only plays
whatever is connected to Main In. It will not play the signal from the
Interrupting Input. Use Main out to connect to another Amplifier or to
Powered Sub-woofer.
9. 12V Trigger In/Out
Allows the XMP100 to be powered on by other electronics or to power
on other electronics via a 3.5mm mini phone plug cable.
10. Mode Select Switch
Stereo Mode (4-8 ohms) to Bridge Mode (Speaker A only, 8-ohm
minimum)
BRIDGED MODE
When set to “Bridged” mode, the amplifier is a single channel mono amplifier
BRIDGED MODE- MONO APPLICATION
For bridged mode, playing Right and Left together as mono output, plug
RCA cables in to Right and Left RCA at MAIN input. Set the MODE switch
to BRIDGED and follow the instructions for bridged speaker connection in
the SPEAKERTERMINALS section of this manual.
NOTE: The XMP100 supplies 160W in bridged mode, Please verify that your
speakers are capable of handling such power to avoid possible damage.
11. AUTO ON Select Switch
Power can be turned on and off manually via the switch on the front panel
or automatically by signal sensing. Set it to NORMAL for manual power
on/off. Set to AUTO for signal sensing; the amp will turn on when audio
signal is detected at the inputs. NOTE: The front panel power switch must
be in the ON position (pushed in) for the AUTO ON feature to operate.
12. Speaker Zone A Output
Speaker output terminals for zone A. Minimum impedance: 8 ohm bridged
or 4 ohm stereo.
13. Speaker Zone B Output
Speaker Output Terminal for zone B. Minimum Impedance; 4-ohm Stereo
SPEAKER TERMINALS - STEREO MODE
For stereo output connect the speaker’s positive (red) terminal to the
amplifier’s positive (red) terminal, and the speaker’s negative (black)
terminal to the amplifier’s negative (black) terminal for each Right and Left
speaker.
SPEAKER TERMINALS - BRIDGED MODE
Place the “MODE” switch in the “BRIDGED” position and use both red
terminals to connect to the speaker. Connect the speaker’s positive (red)
terminal to the amplifier’s red (+) terminal noted next to the bridging mark,
and the speaker’s negative (black) terminal to the amplifier’s unmarked
positive (red) terminal.
NOTE: Only Speaker A can be used for bridged Mono as labeled on the
back panel. Do not attempt to Bridge both Speaker A and Speaker B! This
may result in damage to the amplifier. The minimum Impedance for a
single bridged connection is 8 ohm.
NOTE: Use Class 2 wiring for residential in-wall or Class 3 for residential
and most commercial installations for speaker connections.
To wire the output connector: 1. Strip the insulation off each speaker wire
to expose 3/8" (10 mm) of bare conductor. 2. Unscrew the output terminal
binding post several twists, insert each wire into the correct terminal. 3.
Tighten binding post by twisting clock-wise until it is firmly clamping the
speaker wire. Warning: While the amplifier does self-protect under most
improper output conditions, misconfiguration of loudspeaker mode and
incorrect connection of loudspeakers could damage connected loudspeak-
ers and/or amplifier. Please refer installation to a qualified installation
professional, and always check state and local electrical codes when
installing.
NOTE: To prevent sonic degradation in your speaker installation, total
speaker wire resistance should be kept below 0.5 ohms. This table lists
recommended speaker wire gauge versus wire run length.
- 0-80 ft - 16 Gauge 2/4 conductor CL3 Rated
- 81ft to 200 ft - 14 Gauge 2/4 Conductor CL3 Rated
- 200 Plus Ft -12 gauge 2 Conductor CL3 Rated
14. Power Cord
This amplifier is configured for operation at 115V (North America). A fuse
located internally protection from fault conditions. Refer to qualified
service personel should this need to be replaced.

APPLICATIONS
STEREO SETUP
In this configuration, the mode switch is set to “Stereo”. Connect the line out jacks
from a stereo pre-amplifier or source to the MAIN input jacks of your XMP100.
Next connect your speakers tothe terminals marked “Speaker A”observing
proper polarity. Select the “A”speakers using the front panel zone selection
buttons. Connect asecond (optional) pair of speakers tothe terminals marked
“Speaker B”. If you are connecting 4 speakers tothe XMP100 they must be
8 ohm speakers only. Press A and B together to use both zones.
SETUP FOR MULTIPLE SOURCE
In the multiple source set up, adistributed audio system is connected tothe
XMP100 as alocal zone amplifier via the MAIN inputs. Normallythe distributed
audio system will be the audio source for the XMP100 The distributed audio is
then passed on to be used by additional zones or sub zones in the distributed
system via the MAIN outputs.
The audio output of alocal source, such as an MP3 Player, CD, television,
computer, etc., is connected tothe XMP100 via the INTERRUPTING inputs, and
wheneverthe local source is active its signal will take priority over the
distributed audio signal present at MAIN input . However, the distributed audio signal
will still be present at the MAIN input. In this circumstance the audio output of the
local source will be heard via the XMP100. Once the local source is turned
off or muted, the XMP100 will automatically switch back tothe distributed audio
system as an audio source, assuming the local source remains inactive. There
is adelay of up to 6 seconds when switching from INTERRUPTING input back
