2) Nut driver for output connectors Please report any damage or missing parts to your dealer immediately. Place the OMEGA at or near its final set-up position, allowing 8 inches at the rear for tightening the speaker output connectors. The power transformers in the OMEGA are located at the front-center of the unit. Ideally, a few feet should separate this area from components which potentially could pick up hum. -
Page 5: General Connections
Stereo output connections are marked above the connectors. Switch stereo/mono switch to STEREO position. (The OMEGA is preset at the factory for STEREO.) Use only high quality interconnect and loudspeaker cables, and make all connections tight. - Page 6 Correct output phase MONO connections are marked below the connectors. Repeat the above MONO settings and connections on the second OMEGA to be used for the other channel. Please remember that the negative output connection of a bridged amplifier is NOT a ground.
- Page 7 OMEGA ISSUE 2 DEC ‘98 MONO OPERATION As stated above, either the regular or balanced inputs can be used in stereo or mono. Connect a single interconnect, either regular or balanced, to the left channel input of each amplifier. See the "Mono" section above for complete details. NOTE: Neither the Stereo-Mono switch nor the switch will operate while the amplifier is turned on.

Page 8: Connections For Regular And Balanced Inputs
OMEGA ISSUE 2 DEC ‘98 CONNECTIONS FOR REGULAR OR BALANCED INPUTS: The CLASSÉ OMEGA power amplifier is equipped with both regular and balanced inputs. Either one may be used . The balanced inputs must be SEPARATELY, BUT NOT SIMULTANEOUSLY connected to a preamplifier which has balanced main outputs. Balanced interconnects with "XLR"... - Page 9 For use with balanced preamplifiers other than Classé, the wiring of the 3-pin connectors must be matched to that of the CLASSÉ OMEGA which is wired as follows: PIN 1: SHIELD (Should be connected only at the preamplifier end of the cable) PIN 2: POSITIVE (NON-INVERTED) SIGNAL, “HOT”...

Page 10: Protection Circuit
OMEGA ISSUE 2 DEC ‘98 PROTECTION CIRCUIT A special circuit in the Classé OMEGA continuously monitors the output audio signal to detect output overload, clipping or DC content. In addition, each channel has two front end supply voltage fuses, located on the front end voltage regulation board, to protect the input circuitry from damage due to overload. -
Page 11: Ir In And Out
OMEGA ISSUE 2 DEC ‘98 IR OUT and IN: The OMEGA may also be turned on and off using our SSP-50 Surround Sound Processor, utilising the IR OUT and IN jacks. Several amplifiers may be turned on automatically in sequence or all at once, depending upon the configuration of the jumper settings in the amplifier. - Page 12 OMEGA ISSUE 2 DEC ‘98 CLASSÉ AUDIO 5070 François Cusson Lachine, Quebec Canada H8T 1B3 Telephone: 514 636 63 84 Fax: 514 636 14 28 -12-...
