OVERVIEW
The circuitry used in the P3100 is the latest renement of our trans•nova (TRANSconductance Nodal Voltage Amplier, US Patent
4,467,288) circuit. It has been proven to offer sound quality to satisfy the most analytic audiophile or the most demanding professional.
The natural sound and realistic reproduction have made trans•nova ampliers preferred in many critical installations. Since the
pioneering use of lateral MOSFETs in the DH-200 amplier, they have proven extremely fault tolerant even in abusive situations. This
sturdiness enables the amplier to drive reactive speaker loads without the performance and sound penalties imposed by elaborate
protection schemes. Passive cooling with large heatsinks allow for low mechanical noise, and special care was taken to reduce
noise and distortion at every possible stage. The high performance specications of the P3100 means that it is equally at home in a
recording or mastering studio as it is in an audiophile listening room.

INSTALLATION
Location and Mounting
The P3100 power transformer can generate a substantial magnetic eld, so caution
should be exercised in the placement of low level components such as a mixer or
mic preamp to avoid inducing noise in the low level circuitry. The ampliers can also
produce considerable heat in normal operation so the primary consideration when
determining a location for the ampliers is to allow for adequate ventilation. The large
heatsinks provide unrestricted airow, but care must be taken to keep the slots in the
top and bottom cover clear. If the amplier is mounted in an equipment rack, make sure
adjacent equipment does not impede cool air ow.
Connecting the Power
The P3100 operates from a 120 volt, 60Hz AC power line or 230 volt, 50-60Hz AC power line. Connection is made by a 14-gauge, IEC,
grounded line cord. The voltage is preset at the factory for the country where the P3100 is shipped but may be changed on the rear
panel is case the P3100 is operated in another country. Users in Japan should use the P3100 with a 100V to 120V step up transformer
rated at least for 700VA if they wish to obtain the full rated power of the P3100.
For safety considerations only a properly grounded (earthed) receptacle should be used. If a grounded circuit is not available do not
cut or remove off the ground pin. Mounted on the rear panel is the line fuse which interrupts the power to the amplier. If this fuse blows
replace it only with the same type and rating fuse. The correct replacement fuse value is printed on the rear panel of the amplier.
If the new fuse blows, this is an indication of a fault with the amplier. Servicing should be performed only by a qualied technician.
Connecting Inputs
The input jacks are located on the rear of the amplier. XLR input jacks are provided
for balanced line operation and RCA phono jacks for unbalanced sources. An input
select switch is provided on each channel to choose between the XLR balanced
input and the RCA unbalanced input. A ground lift switch is also provided on each
channel should you encounter hum or buzz from ground loops.

(4.12mm OD). To determine the cable gauge required for the distance of cable for your setup please refer to the chart on pg.5. Safety
regulations prohibit the use of dual binding posts and the posts are spaced to disallow this. Before making connections, ensure the
amplier is turned off along with all of the source equipment. This will avoid loud plug-in and connection transients that can damage
more sensitive components such as tweeters.
It is also very important that you do not connect loudspeakers that are below the rated impedance of the P3100. This amplier is
capable of driving loads down to 4 Ohms, but not less. Driving loads below 4 Ohms can lead to overheating and premature part failure.
In bridged mono use, the P3100 should be connected to a speaker with an impedance of 8 Ohms or greater. Under no circumstances
should the output terminals of the P3100 be short-circuited.

Bridged Mono
For systems with high power requirements, the ampliers can be congured for single channel bridged mono operation. To bridge the
amplier, set the rear panel MONO switch to the Mono (In) position. The Channel 1 input and level control is used and the Channel 2
level control must be set to its maximum gain position. The speaker is connected to the RED output binding posts.
When the amplier is bridged the output is oating. Any speaker which requires a common ground from the amplier output
cannot be used in this application.
Since a bridged amplier shares the load between the two channels, each channel will effectively drive half of the load. For
bridged mono operation we recommend using an 8 Ohm load as the minimum impedance. Less than 8 Ohm operation in
bridge mode is outside the operating parameters for the P3100 and should not be done.

OPERATION
Power Switch
The POWER switch is located on the front panel of the amplier. A front panel IDLE LED indicates when the amplier is active.
Standard practice is to turn the amplier on last and off rst when switching components to prevent sending damaging transients to
the speakers.
There is a time-delayed “soft start” in the P3100 that mutes the sound for several seconds after startup. In the case of an entire
recording system being turned on at the same time with a power bar this should eliminate any loud thump. On turnoff, there is a sense
circuit that will mute the P3100 fairly quickly but when an entire system is shut off at the same time as from a power bar being turned
off, if any prior equipment thumps badly on turnoff, a small amount of this may pass through to the speakers. Therefore, in the case
of turning the system on or off with a power bar, the level controls should be turned to minimum before switching on and again just
before switching off.
Level Control
The input sensitivity for each channel can be adjusted individually using the level controls on the front panel. The gain control on an
amplier is usually set fully clockwise to its maximum sensitivity. The level controls on the P3100 are not meant to be volume controls.
They are meant to be trim controls. That is, they are normally set to maximum level and are moved counter-clockwise to make
corrections for any imbalances in rooms that may not be symmetrical.
Short Circuit Protection
Due to the self-protecting properties of the output power MOSFETs, there is no need for sonically degrading voltage and current
limiting circuits. To protect the amplier from problems which may occur in the speaker line the P3100 includes a FaultSafe™ overload
detection circuit. In the event of a short in the speaker load or cables, the speaker detection circuit will shut down that channel and light
the front panel FAULT indicator. If this happens, correct the fault and turn the amplier off, then back on to reset.
LED Indicators
Amplier operation is monitored via the front panel with four status LEDs as well as 9 meter LEDs for each channel. These indicators
can be used for system troubleshooting in case of aberrant behavior. The LEDS from the outermost to the centermost are:
Heat Indicates when the thermal protection circuit has shut down the amplier. This occurs when the heatsink temperature
exceeds 90°C (194°F). This will also illuminate the FAULT LED. When the amplier cools down below 80°C (176°F) the amplier
will restart.
Fault Indicates when the output overload monitor detects a potentially damaging short and shuts down amplier operation. This
also lights when the P3100 has a thermal shutdown or when driven too far into clipping for too long. After clearing the fault,
restore normal function by turning the amplier off, then on again.
Idle Indicates the amplier is powered on and the internal low voltage power supply is operating properly.
Meter LEDs Monitors the amplier output and gives an approximate indication of amplier power output.
Clip These are the LEDs closest to the power switch. They light when the drive signal voltage exceeds the maximum for linear
operation of the output MOSFETs.
Warm Up
While the P3100 may be used with no ill effects whatsoever as soon as it comes out of muting, in order to achieve the best sonic
performance from the amplier, we recommend letting it warm up for 1 hour before beginning any critical listening. The amplier may
not deliver its full potential sound quality before this time has passed.
Cleaning and Maintenance
There is no requirement for regular maintenance on the electrical components of the amplier. If the outer case becomes soiled, lightly
spraying a soft cloth with an ammonia-based cleaner should remove any grime. In the event of regular overheating, the P3100 should
be brought to a professional service technician for cleaning and testing of the internal components.

FAQ
Do I need to allow the P3100 to warm up before using?
The P3100 will work immediately when turned on, however it will sound best after it has reached thermal stability. This may take up
to one hour.
Will disconnecting the speakers when the amplier is powered up damage the amp?
Although you may not damage the amplier, you can damage other components such as loudspeakers when connecting and
disconnecting the speaker terminals. Thus, it is always best practice to turn the amp off when making connections.
Is the Haer P3100 specied in RMS or peak power?
All Haer amps are specied in RMS power which describes the average output of the amplier when run for a period of time. Peak
power is an instantaneous measurement that describes the maximum rail to rail voltage the amp can produce with a minimum level
of distortion.
What is the difference between a MOSFET and bipolar transistor?
The main advantage of the MOSFET over a typical bipolar transistor is that it is much more efcient at managing and producing
gain, thus requiring gain stages to produce the same output. Lateral MOSFETs were developed specically for audio. Although more
expensive, these are employed in the Haer P3100.
What is the difference between a class AB and class D amplier?
Class AB ampliers employ a traditional approach to the amplication with transistors and large power transformers to produce the
output. Class D ampliers employ digital switching to amplify the signal. Class D ampliers are preferred in live concert touring and
for commercial installations due to the light weight and high efciency. Class A and AB ampliers are preferred by recording engineers
and audiophiles for their sonic quality.
What is damping factor and what can I do to maximize it?
The damping factor is best described as the amplier’s ability to control the speaker excursion. A higher damping factor will result in
a tighter sounding bass. To maximize the damping, it is best to use thick, heavy gauge speaker cables, particularly when driving long
cables.
What speaker cable gauge should I use with my speakers?
As a rule, the thicker the better. For speakers that are within 2 meters (6’) of the amplier, no less than 14 gauge cables should be
used. 12 gauge or even 10 gauge wires made from stranded copper are preferred as these will transfer power more efciently without
loss.
Will using the balanced inputs sound better than using the unbalanced inputs?
No. The balanced inputs are there for convenience. Internally, the amplier signal path is unbalanced.
Does the P3100 get hot to the touch?
No. It will get warm, but not hot.
Can I stack multiple ampliers on top of each other without fear of overheating?
You can, but allow at least one rack space between amps to prevent overheating.
Can I still mount the P3100 in a rack if there’s no room for free space above or below the amplier?
Yes, The P3100 can be mounted in tight quarters, but care must be taken to ensure adequate ventilation is provided. Circulating fans
should be considered if there is no room to leave free space next to the P3100.
