Basic instructions
Quick starting guide
Make sure that the device is not plugged into the mains beforemakinganyconnections. Itisalso recommendedtoturn off or disconnect all other devices associated while making connections to the product.
Connect the speakers to the speaker terminals on the back and the sources of the corresponding input jacks on the back.
IMPORTANT: Make sure you have set the voltage selector to suit your country: INPUT VOLTAGE: AC110 (USA) and AC230
(EUROPE).
Connect the power cord to the connector on the one hand AC Mains product and the other to a wall outlet. Turn the POWER switch on the ON position (I).
If the unit is equipped with a standby, then press the STANDBY button to turn it on.
Press the input selector for the source you want to hear.

WARNING: Besuretoturnoffthepoweronyourproductbefore making any connections. Similarly it is best to cut the power of other devices you want to connect to your amplifier.
Connections to the stereo system
ANTENNAS (Connecting the AM and FM antennas)
FM indoor antenna: Connect the included FM antenna connector on the rear panel, deploy it and tune your favorite station. Fix the antenna to a suitable location such as a window frame or wall that gives the best reception and secure it.
FM outdoor antenna: In an area where FM signals are weak, it may be necessary to use an outdoor FM antenna. Use a three-element outdoor antenna (commercially available), or a five-element antenna in a area where radio signals are particularly weak, and use a 75 Ω coaxial cable to connect it.
Note: Disconnect the indoor FM antenna when using an outdoor antenna.
AM antenna: UseinternalorexternalAMantennaandconnect there to one of the two terminals at the rear of the unit.
When using an outdoor antenna, always connect a grounding wire to the GND terminal. Leave the internal antenna connectedevenwhenalsousingaconnectedoutdoorantenna.
OUTPUTS (OUTPUT - RCA)
REC
It allows to retrieve the selected amplifier to «source» level audio signal that is independent of the level volume control. This output is traditionally used to connect the amplifier to a recording device.
LINE
It allows to retrieve the selected audio amplifier in proportion to the level of volume control signal. This output is mainly used to connect an additional power block to perform a «bi-amplification».
OPTIONAL BOARD POWER
Thisconnectorisdesignedtoaccommodatethepowercableto an external card such as the EX-PHONO-2X card.
For connecting the optional phono card, use the stereo power cable supplied with the card and a stereo RCA cable to connect the card to the EX-712.2 to the AUX INPUT.

WIRELESS ANTENNA
This connector is for receiving a WIRELESS antenna. The supplied antenna is mounted directly to the back of the unit. The WIRELESS range is limited to few meters (depending on the nature of the obstacles located between the EX712.2’s antenna and your WIRELESS source).
It is possible to obtain an optional "WIRELESS long-range" antenna. It consists of a cable to shifting the antenna. Moreover, this antenna is larger.
LARGE / SMALL SPEAKER OUTPUT - (High Pass Filter)
This switch allows you to enable or disable an high pass filter to use all the power of the amplification on trebles frequencies which is useful if you have a subwoofer connected to the SUB output of the EX-712.2.
Thus, when the SMALL position is activated, the EX-712.2 let pass only the high frequencies (trebles).
DIGITAL INPUTS
Your stereo system has a built-in digital-to-analog converter. Thereforeitispossibletoconnectadigitalsource(suchasmost modern television screens).
To ensure compatibility with all existing types of digital terminals, the EX-712.2 has an "optical" socket and a "coaxial). However this entry is unique and it is possible to connect one device at a time.
The entry "optical" take precedence over the entry "coaxial" in case you have wired both.
LOUDSEPAKER TERMINALS
Connect the speaker to the terminals marked RIGHT "+ R" and "R -" ensuring that "R +" is connected to the "+" terminal of the enclosure and "R -" is connected to the terminal "- "the same enclosure. Connect the LEFT speaker to the terminals marked "L +" and "L -" by doing the same.
Make sure that no wires are not insulated can bypass the speakeroutputs.Makesurethatthespeakerterminalsaretight enough to ensure a good electrical connection. If the terminal screwsarenottightenough,thesoundqualitymaybeaffected.
Useonlydedicatedwiretothespeaker(asectionof1.5mm²or more is recommended especially if the cable length is greater than 3m).
Important Note: Check the impedance of your speakers. When using a pair of speakers, you can use speakers with an impedance of between 4 and 8 ohms.
INPUT VOLTAGE
IMPORTANT: Before turning on your amplifier, check that you have positioned the voltage selector based on your geographic location: AC110V (USA, etc ...) and AC230V (EU, etc ...). Also be sure to use a fuse appropriate for the selected voltage sector.
Example position voltage selector:
|
|
|
|
|
|
220V for Europe |
|
110V for USA |
fuse T2AL/230V |
|
fuse T4AL/110V |
AC MAIN INPUT
Onceallconnectionstothestereosystem,plugthepowercable into an outlet and turn the unit on. Your EX-712.2 is now ready for use.
POWER - ON (I) / OFF (0) BUTTON
This switch allows shutdown or operation of the amplifier.
SUBWOOFER OUTPUT
Connect this output to your active subwoofer.
Note: Depending on your speakers, set SPEAKER OUTPUT
SMALL ( ) to optimize the frequency management of your 2.1 system. Then low frequencies will only be sent to your subwoofer and high frequencies to your speakers.
