Classic 5350SE
Designed and manufactured in the United Kingdom
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
Thank you for purchasing the Classic 5350SE. You are now in possession of a State of the Art integrated amplifier. The functions and operation of the Classic 5350SE are very simple. However, the following notes are provided to explain all aspects of its design and use.
MAINS CONNECTION
When unpacking the amplifier please keep the packing material in a safe place for possible future use. In the pack there is a separate mains cable suitable for connecting to the mains supply in the country of use. The IEC socket end of the cable should be firmly inserted into the connector on the rear panel marked "Mains Input".
Remember, do not overload the mains wall socket with too many plugs or adaptors. The high quality performance of the amplifier will be impaired if the electrical supply to it is in poor condition. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician or your dealer.
The "Mains Input" connection is also fitted with a fuse, specifically suited to the supply voltage of the country of use. The correct value is clearly marked on the rear panel next to the Mains Input.
Should it be necessary to replace the fuse, ensure that you use the same type as specified on the rear panel, i.e. 5 x 20mm cartridge type: T 3.15 A surge resisting for 220-240V 50Hz AC,
T 6.3 A surge resisting for 110-120V 60Hz AC T 8A surge resisting for 100V (Japan)
INPUT CONNECTION AND SWITCHING
The rotary selector switch on the left-hand side of the amplifier is used to select and listen to any of the desired inputs. There are six inputs including tape in plus tape out.
As all the line input levels are the same, it is not necessary to use the precise inputs as designated.
You may, for example, plug a CD player into the Tuner input and obtain exactly the same result or performance as the dedicated CD input. However, for added flexibility, the first input on the Classic
5350SE can be used either for vinyl disc or auxiliary line. To connect your turntable, it is necessary to have the optional MM or MC phono plug-in board fitted. Alternatively Creek Audio produces a separate range of phono pre-amplifers. Ask your dealer for full details.
The pre-amp output and the power amp inputs are available through RCA sockets on the rear panel.
For most applications it is necessary to join these two connections to patch the input signal through to the internal power amp. This is the default setting from the factory. However, when used with an external device, such as a sub-woofer or graphic equaliser etc. it may be necessary to separate the pre and power amps. To do this there is a switch placed next to the two sets of sockets, recessed behind the rear panel to avoid accidental use. To join or separate the sockets, it is necessary to push the recessed button with a matchstick or similar device. When joined the button is in the out position.
Switch the amplifier off before making any changes in order to avoid any pops, clicks or other noises.
