Using the 818

Switching on and off

Reference Audio Core
When not playing, the 818 should be left in the standby
state. This uses a minimal amount of electricity, but
ensures that the components of the 818 operate at
maximum efficiency from the moment you start.
If you are not going to use the 818 for several days
you should switch the unit off completely at the rear
panel, and disconnect it from the AC power supply.
To switch on from standby
• Press Source (front panel), or select a source on
the remote.
If the 818 is part of a Meridian system it will
automatically switch on any other units in the system,
such as the 861 Reference Digital Surround Controller
and Meridian DSP Loudspeakers.
To switch to standby
Press Off (front panel or remote).
•
If you have other Meridian equipment or Meridian DSP
Loudspeakers connected to the 818 these units will
also switch to standby.
