FEA TURES AND BENEFITS T he SI-2125 delivers 125 watts per c hannel at 8 Ohms, 200 watts per channel at 4 Ohms and 300 watts bridged at 8 ohms. Y ou’ll get tremendous bass and dynamics from every pair of speakers powered b y an SI-2125. T he audio circuitry of the SI-2125 is constructed using the finest parts av ailable; including 1% metal film r[...]

T he SI-2125 features three turn-on modes: 1. Music Sense 2. External V oltage T rigger 3. Manual T urn-On via the front panel switch. Y ou can configure the SI-2125 to interface with any kind of system and ha ve the unit automatically turn on. T he SI-2125 is equipped with sophisticated protection circuits. In the unlikely event that a problem occ[...]

INST ALLA TION CONSIDERA TIONS Place the SI-2125 on a flat level surface like a table or shelf. It should be placed upright so that its weight rests on the four attached feet. Placing the weight of the amplifier on the rear or front panel for even an instant will result in damage to the amplifier's connectors and controls. T he SI-2125, like a[...]

T he SI-2125 draws more current than a preamplifier’ s switched AC outlet can safely supply . Also, y our preamplifier ma y “thump” at dangerous volumes if the amplifier is already on w hen the preamp turns on. It is usually best to turn the amplifier on only when it is needed. The T urn-On Mode selector switc h gives you three options for tu[...]

T he SI-2125’ s bridged mode switc h allows y ou to create a more powerful amplifier by combining both c hannels into one (8 ohm minumum). In the bridged mode, connect the speakers to the left red positiv e terminal and the right red positiv e terminal. In the bridged mode the right channel’ s red terminal becomes positiv e and the left channel[...]

CA UTION! THE AMPLIFIER MUST BE OFF WHENEVER Y OU MAKE CHANGES T O THE INPUT CONNECTIONS. T he “Cascade A udio Outputs” enable you to connect another amplifier to your preamplifier output. T he connectors are gold-plated RC A phono jacks. Connect them to another amplifier’ s inputs with a standard audio patch cable. T he outputs are not buffe[...]

14 INST ALLA TION STEP Plug the female IEC socket of the supplied AC cord into the IEC receptacle on the r ear of the amplifier . Plug the 2 prong plug into 1 20V 60 Hz wall outlet. CAUTION! T ypically the preamp/r eceiver’ s switched outlet is not rated for a power amplifier . Just like a computer or printer , the SI-2125 has an A C cord whic h [...]

OPERA TION T he front panel switch is a master or “v acation” power switc h. No matter which turn-on mode you ha ve selected, the master power switc h will turn off all circuitry —including the sensing circuitry . If you will not be using the amplifier for an extended period of time, turn the master power switc h “Off” (push button switc [...]
