1. Introduction
Welcome to AER. Thank you for purchasing the
DOMINO.
Based on our Compact/Bingo acoustic system we
have developed the DOMINO, a 100-watt system,
that combines the excellent tone of the Compact
with increased power and higher efficiency. The
DOMINO is - of course - dynamically controlled and
equipped with: two parallel power-amplifiers, two
8“ twin-cone loudspeakers, 4 channels with mute
option and a new 32bit digital AER-effect with 16
presets.
To obtain maximum enjoyment from your amplifier
please read this manual carefully before using your
DOMINO.

2. Precautionary Measures
When you use your DOMINO, always take basic
safety precautions to reduce to a minimum the
risk of injury by fire or by electric shock.
Read all the directions in these operating instructions and make sure that you understand them.
Pay attention to all warnings, instructions and
supplementary text written on the DOMINO.
Always use a grounded mains connection with the
appropriate supply voltage. If you are uncertain
whether the connection is grounded, have a qualified expert check it.
Use the same type and value to replace a broken
fuse. Never try to repair it
Do not let your DOMINO come into contact with
water and never touch the amplifier if you have wet
hands. . Always operate your DOMINO in a place
where no one can trip over the cables causing injury
to themselves or damage to the cables. Do not
operate your DOMINO near devices with strong
electromagnetic fields such as large mains transformers, generators, neon lights etc. Do not lay the
signal cable parallel to power lines.
Do insure that your DOMINO is switched off before
plugging in the power cable to the mains.
Before cleaning your DOMINO, unplug it from the
mains supply. Use a damp cloth to clean it. Do not
use cleaning agents, and be careful that no liquid
finds its way into the amp.
There are no parts within your DOMINO that can be
serviced by the user. Refer all repairs and servicing
to an agent authorised by AER. Any unauthorised
repair or servicing will void the two year warranty!
Keep these operating instructions in a safe place.
