INTRODUCTION

The

AMC

CVT2030

has

been

designed

to

give

superb

sound

quality

and

represents

outstand¬

ing

value

for

money.

The

CVT2030

is

a

hybrid

mosfet

valve

design,

capable

of

giving

superb

sound

reproduction.

The

components

are

all

of

the

highest

quality,

but

there

are

a

few

simple

hints

to

follow

in

order

to

get

the

best

from

your

new

amplifier.

1)

Do

not

stand

any

object

or

other

component

on

the

top.

Whilst

the

2030

is

one

of

the

coolest

running

Class

A

valve

amps

available,

uninterr¬

upted

air

flow

is

most

important.

2)

There

are

two

silent

fans

in

the

base

under

each

pair

of

EL34

valves.

Again,

the

air

space

under

the

amp

must

not

be

restricted

in

any

way.

Never

stand

the

unit

on

a

carpeted

surface

or

anything

soft,

or

on

another

component

which

generates

heat.

3)

The

amplifier

will

sound

best

when

it

is

"warmed

up",

this

can

take

15-20

minutes.

4)

The

valves

should

last

a

very

long

time

but

can

be

changed

easily.

However,

as

there

is

always

some

voltage

present

inside,

even

when

the

unit

is

turned

off,

we

recommend

that

this

is

carried

out

by

your

AMC

dealer,

it

is

only

a

five

minute

job

for

an

engineer.

5)

We

recommend

you

retain

the

original

carton

and

packaging

so

that

it

can

be

repacked

corr¬

ectly

if

it

ever

becomes

necessary

to

transport

the

unit

or

return

for

service.

6)

After

switching

off,

always

let

the

amplifier

cool

down

before

turning

on

again.

INSTALLATION

Your

AMC

amplifier

is

supplied

set

to

work

on

your

local

mains

supply

voltage.

Check

that

your

local

mains

supply

voltage

agrees

with

the

voltage

setting

indicated

on

the

back

panel

of

the

amplifier.

If

not,

please

contact

your

dealer

or

national

distributor

for

details

on

how

to

proceed

further.

The

cores

of

the

mains

lead

are

coloured

in

accordance

with

the

following

code:

Blue

-Neutral

Brown

-Live

Note:

Export

units

for

certain

markets

have

moulded

mains

plugs

fitted

as

standard.

As

the

colours

in

the

mains

lead

may

not

corr¬

espond

with

the

coloured

markings

identifying

the

terminals

in

your

plug,

proceed

as

follows:

The

wire

which

is

coloured

blue

must

be

connected

to

the

terminal

which

is

marked

by

the

letter

N,

or

coloured

black

or

blue.

The

wire

which

is

coloured

brown

must

be

connected

to

the

terminal

which

is

marked

by

the

letter

L,

or

coloured

red

or

brown.

FUSES

If

the

mains

plug

is

fused,

fit

a

3amp

fuse.

Your

AMC

amplifier

contains

fuses

which

are

designed

to

protect

the

amplifier

and

prevent

the

occurrence

of

a

dangerous

fault

condition.

These

should

only

be

inspected

and

replaced

by

a

competent

engineer

using

the

correct

replacement

types.

INPUTS

The

connectors.

The

phono

sockets

on

your

AMC

amplifier

are

marked

"L"

for

left

and

"R"

for

right

channels,

with

the

left

channel

nearest

the

top

of

the

cabinet.

Your

connection

leads

will

have

a

white

or

black

plug

for

left,

and

a

red

plug

for

right.

LOUDSPEAKER

CONNECTIONS

The

loudspeaker

output

terminals

will

accept

4mm

(banana)

plugs,

pin

connectors,

spade

connectors

or

bare

wires.

The

amplifier

has

speaker

outputs

that

will

match

4-8

Ohm

speakers.

Confirm

the

imped¬

ance

of

your

speakers

then

connect

as

follows:

For

8

Ohm

Speakers,

connect

the

negative

(black)

speaker

wire

to

the

"common"

negative

binding

post.

Then

connect

the

positive

(red)

cable

to

the

8

Ohm

red

binding

post.

Repeat

for

the

right

speaker.

For

4

Ohm

speakers,

the

negative

(black)

connections

are

the

same

as

the

8

Ohm,

but

the

positive

or

red

connection

must

be

to

the

4

Ohm

binding

post.

Your

AMC

amplifier

is

capable

of

generating

high

peak

currents,

so

all

connections

must

be

checked

to

avoid

inadvertent

short

circuits,

and

to

ensure

a

good

clean

contact.

UNDER

NO

CIRCUMSTANCES

SHOULD

THE

OUTPUTS

BE

SHORTED

POWER

SWITCH

The

amplifier

is

turned

on

by

depressing

the

power

switch.

The

small

indicator

above

the

switch

will

glow

green.

Before

switching

on,

always

set

the

volume

of

your

Pre

Amp

to

minimum

to

avoid

damage

to

your

loudspeakers.

Note:

Your

AMC

amplifier

will

play

music

within

a

few

minutes

after

being

switched

on.

However

in

common

with

other

audiophile

products,

the

internal

circuits

take

some

time

to

stabilise

fully,

and

the

best

possible

sound

quality

may

not

be

obtained

until

the

amplifier

has

had

some

time

(possibly

an

hour

or

two)

to

warm

up.

CHECK

LIST

Should

you

have

any

difficulty

in

operating

your

amplifier,

switch

off

and

check

the

following
