Page 5: Precautions
RECAUTIONS Please take special note of the following precautions before operating your new amplifier: The Plinius P10 Power Amplifier can deliver in excess of 200 watts into 8 ohms. This amplifier is • also capable of a very large peak current delivery. - Page 6 – F MPLIFIER EATURES RONT ANEL PLINIUS RONT ANEL AYOUT HOWING ISPLAY DISPLAY LED An LED on the front panel indicates that the power is on. When first switched on, the display LED will pulse for ten seconds - this is an initialisation sequence, after which the LED remains lit during the time the amplifier is powered on.
- Page 7 Mains switch on and off repeatedly. INPUT TERMINALS The input terminals for your Plinius P10 power amplifier are easily accessible at the centre of the rear panel. RCA INPUTS LEFT & RIGHT: These standard RCA terminals are for use with unbalanced signals from...
- Page 8 By connecting a processor with a remote trigger signal to these terminals, the P10 can be put in and out of standby/mute by the processor to which it is connected. When in standby/mute the amplifier draws less current and will operate at minimum temperature. The output relays are also open, disconnecting the loudspeakers.
- Page 9 MAINS POWER CORD IEC SOCKET This connector is where the mains supply cable from your wall connects to the amplifier. You will notice that a fuse holder is mounted within this connection, and it holds a mains fuse to provide surge and overload protection for your amplifier.

(slots in the lid and base) are not covered or restricted in any way. The Plinius P10 design incorporates a very high level of mechanical de-coupling of the input and output. It can however still be influenced by acoustical feedback in the operating environment. The use of acoustic cones, or a suitably spiked amplifier stand or table, may further enhance the performance of this amplifier. -
Page 11: Input/Output Connection
If using single-ended or RCA inputs, connect your preamplifier to the RCA inputs on the back of the Plinius P10. Make sure you connect the red coded cable to the red RIGHT RCA input, and the black (or white) cable to the black LEFT RCA input. Also make sure the RCA connectors are a snug fit and are inserted all the way in. - Page 12 Plinius P10 Power Amplifier. WARM-UP PERIOD You will find that the Plinius P10 will become noticeably ‘purer’ in sound after being on for a period of time. We usually recommend waiting at least 24 hours before expecting the best quality of sound reproduction from your amplifier.

P10 F EATURES FUSE PROTECTION When any rail fuse is damaged one or more fuse warning LED’s will light. These LED’s are located next to the fuse that has blown. To replace the fuse, steady the amplifier, then firmly push in the round fuse cap with your fingers. -
Page 14: Loudspeaker Selection
OUDSPEAKER ELECTION Your Plinius P10 Power Amplifier is designed for use with high fidelity loudspeakers. It should not be used to operate any other type of appliance or equipment. Choice of loudspeakers is one of personal taste, providing the chosen loudspeakers are suitable for use with your amplifier. -
