  • Page 3 This Integrated Amplifier is designed and manufactured to the highest specification and rigorously tested to reward you with many years of listening pleasure. Your K3 Integrated Amplifier is an integral part of your system. Its correct installation, set-up and operation will have a significant influence on the performance of the entire hi-fi installation.
  • Page 4 Cautions AC Mains Supply Your K3 Integrated Amplifier is set to operate from a fixed supply voltage which is marked on a label next to the mains input plug. Before connecting the mains lead please check that your mains supply corresponds to the label as below: 230V Products: Voltage Range 220V – 240V...
  • Page 5: General Cautions

    Please read the safety instructions and follow all guidance. Location Your K3 Integrated Amplifier should be located in a well ventilated area and kept away from sources of heat, dust and humidity and from direct sunlight. The integrated Amplifier may be positioned either as a free standing unit or along side another audio/video product.

  • Page 8: Connecting Mains Power

    Signal Connections There are 6 Inputs (18 -24) on your K3 Integrated Amplifier. Except for PHONO input (19) all other inputs are line level and will accept virtually all currently available source components. The PHONO input is factory set for Moving Magnet Cartridges to accommodate record players fitted with MM phono cartridges.

    RED (+) speaker terminal is connected to the RED (+) amplifier terminal and the BLACK (-) speaker terminal to the BLACK (-) Page 9 Roksan Audio ROK-1217 V2.3 c/o Monitor Audio Ltd, 24 Brook Road, Rayleigh, Essex, SS6 7XJ April 2018 www.roksan.co.uk | info@roksan.co.uk | +44 (0)1268 740580...
  • Page 10 If the system loudspeakers utilise more than one drive unit with individual input terminals, for example a Tweeter and Woofer, then the loudspeakers performance should benefit from bi-amping by use of the addition of a K3 Power Amplifier. Dedicating one amplifier to the Tweeter and another to the Woofer isolates them from each other, hence reducing distortion and increasing reserved power.
  • Page 11: Operation

    (going on a short break, holidays etc.) the mains power should be switched OFF and the power cord disconnected from the mains power input. When switched ON, your K3 integrated amplifier’s MODE indicator illumination will change to RED and the last selected input will be selected.
  • Page 12: Volume Control

    You are now ready to stream music to the K3 from the paired device. If your device is aptX compatible and contains high resolution audio files, then these will be streamed in the original high quality bit rate through the K3.
  • Page 13 If the amplifier output current exceeds its safe operating range (very low loudspeaker impedance and/or very high volume level) the protective circuitry of the K3 will take the amp into Protection mode. If subsequently lowered or the loudspeakers changed, the amplifier can be brought out of the Protection state to resume as normal.
  • Page 14: Troubleshooting

    Troubleshooting If you suspect that your ROKSAN K3 Integrated Amplifier is not operating properly, you should check all the connections carefully. Pay particular attention to speaker phasing and channel connections. Phono plugs should be fully inserted - a frequent cause of problems is due to the phono plug surrounds not making proper contact.
