  • Page 5: Congratulations

    Before setting up your new MOON i-7, we encourage you to please read this manual thoroughly to properly acquaint yourself with its features. We hope you enjoy listening to the MOON i-7 dual-mono integrated amplifier as much as the pride we have taken in creating this fine audio product.

  • Page 6: Introduction

    Installation & Placement The MOON i-7 dual-mono integrated amplifier is very heavy. It requires reasonable ventilation to maintain an optimum and consistent operating temperature. Consequently, it should be placed in a location with empty space around it for proper heat dissipation.

  • Page 7: Front Panel Controls

    MOON i-7 Dual-Mono Integrated Amplifier Front Panel Controls Figure 1: Front panel of MOON i-7 dual-mono Integrated Amplifier The front panel will look similar to Figure 1 (above). The large display window normally indicates the current volume level and, whenever you change the input, it will briefly show the selected input label. On each side of the display window, are two (2) buttons.

  • Page 8: Software Setup

    Note: To change the balance between the left and right channels, please refer to the section “Remote Control Operation”. The “Input +” and “Input -” buttons allow you to choose which input source you wish to listen to. The MOON i-7 dual-mono integrated amplifier has a total of five (5) inputs;...
  • Page 9 MOON i-7 Dual-Mono Integrated Amplifier Software Setup (continued) We will begin by walking through all 5 available options for the “B1” input: To enter the Setup mode, begin by pressing the “Setup” button; “SETUP” will appear in the display window.
  • Page 10 (continued) The MOON i-7 is equipped with a 12 Volt trigger output. When an input is assigned to the 12 Volt trigger, the device connected to the trigger will automatically start-up whenever you switch to that input. The default setting for all five inputs is on.

    Figure 2: Rear panel of MOON i-7 Integrated Amplifier The rear panel of the MOON i-7 dual-mono integrated amplifier will look similar to Figure 2 (above). There are three rows of connectors; the top row contains one pair of heavy duty gold-plated speaker binding posts for each channel to connect to your loudspeakers.

    Operating the i-7 We recommend that you leave your MOON i-7 dual-mono integrated amplifier powered up at all times to maintain optimal performance. In the event that you plan to be away from your home for a few days, powering off the integrated amplifier may not be a bad idea.

  • Page 13: Troubleshooting

    For example, when one conductor is carrying a signal of +10 Volts, the other will be carrying a signal of –10 Volts. When these two inverted signals on a balanced line are output from the MOON i-7, any noise picked up by the interconnect will be eliminated since a differential circuit amplifies only the difference between these two signals: Noise on a balanced interconnect will be equal on both conductors and therefore not be processed.

  • Page 14: Remote Control Operation

    MOON i-7 Dual-Mono Integrated Amplifier Remote Control Operation The MOON i-7 Dual-Mono integrated amplifier uses the ‘FRM-2’ full function, all aluminum remote control (figure 4). It operates on the Philips RC-5 communication protocol and can be used with other MOON components.
