Frequently Asked Questions - AMP210 AudioSource

How do I connect speakers to the AMP210?

Use speaker wire with banana plugs or bare wire. Connect to the Speaker A or B terminals on the back, observing polarity (+/-). Ensure the impedance is 4-16 ohms.

Can I use the AMP210 with a turntable?

Yes, the AMP210 has a dedicated phono input for moving magnet (MM) cartridges. Connect your turntable ground wire to the ground screw.

How do I set the clock?

Press and hold the 'Clock' button. Use the 'Tuning Up/Down' buttons to set the hour, press 'Clock' again, then set minutes. Press 'Clock' to confirm.

Why is there no sound from the speakers?

Check that the speakers are properly connected, the source is selected, the volume is turned up, and the mute function is off. Also verify the speaker impedance is within range.

How do I program radio presets?

Tune to the desired station, then press and hold the 'Memory' button. Use the number pad or 'Preset Up/Down' to select a number, then press 'Memory' again to save.

What is the maximum power output?

The AMP210 delivers 100 watts per channel into 8 ohms, 20Hz-20kHz, with 0.08% total harmonic distortion.

Can I connect a subwoofer?

Yes, use the 'Subwoofer Pre-Out' RCA jack to connect an active subwoofer. The subwoofer output is independently adjustable via the menu.

How do I reset the AMP210 to factory settings?

Press and hold the 'Power' button for 10 seconds while the unit is on, until 'Reset' appears on the display. Confirm by pressing 'Enter'.

Does the remote control require line of sight?

Yes, the remote uses infrared (IR) signals. Point it directly at the receiver’s IR sensor within 23 feet (7 meters) and a 30-degree angle.

What maintenance does the AMP210 need?

What products go with the AudioSource AMP Series?

Any Program Source or Speaker You Want to Attain Peak Performance With!

The most exciting feature of the AMP series is the flexibility these products have to connect into any audio system: new or already installed, large or small, high-tech or traditional. This versatility comes from the expansive feature set built into all the AudioSource AMP products. Connect to other AudioSource products, such as the EQ 200, or powered subwoofers PSW 110 and PSW 112. Or connect to any receiver, MP3 player, TV, PC, Satellite Radio, Tape Deck, Phono... or any other source.

1. Use the High Level (Speaker Level) inputs on the AMP210/AMP310 to upgrade a zone that has speakers installed already
2. Save energy costs with the Auto-on or 12V Trigger-On feature
3. Add the ultimate gaming experience to a room using the auto-override feature of the AMP series by plugging in the audio out jack of any gaming console to the Line 1 inputs.
4. Add an MP3 player to a distributed audio system that automatically interrupts the regular program material just by pushing "Play"
5. A powered subwoofer connects to the AMP by plugging the Line 2 output of the amplifier, or amplified speaker outputs to the subwoofer.

These are all easily planned upgrades that will keep your customers coming back for future upgrades and more audio excitement.

The primary line level input and output for a single source connection.

1. Delay Time

Allows for a 3-15 second delay to be set and accommodate the source connected to the Line 1 input.

1. Master Level Controls

Provides independent adjustment of Left and Right channel maximum level.

1. Mode Select Switch

Switches the amplifier from Stereo mode to Bridged Mono mode

1. 12V Trigger

Allows the amplifier to be powered on by other electronics or to power on other electronics via a 3.5mm mini phone plug cable.

1. Power Mode

Set it to Normal for manual power on/off. Set to Auto-On for signal sensing. Set to Trigger when using 12V trigger for on/off.

1. Right Channel Speaker Output

Right channel terminals for speaker outputs A and B.

1. Left Channel Speaker Output

Left channel terminals for speaker outputs A and B.

1. Mains Power Inlet & Fuse Holder

Accepts IEC type line cord. A fuse located in integrated holder provides safety protection from fault conditions: replace fuse with one of same type and rating only.

1. Mains Voltage Selector

Voltage selection switch is preset to 115V (USA). For use in areas which require 230V contact your dealer. Fuse must be of type and rating marked on amplifier for use at local mains voltage.
