Operating Voltage
The RP-1 can be switched between 115V and 230V mains voltage.
In 115V mode the RP-1 requires a mains voltage of 100V-120V at 50-60Hz. In 230V mode the RP-1 requires a mains voltage of 220V-240V at 50-60Hz.
The mains voltage setting for your RP-1 can be changed on the rear selector.
Make sure the rear selector is in the correct position and connect the power input only to the appropiate AC source. The warranty will not cover any damage caused by connecting to the wrong type of AC mains.
The RP-1 has three power modes:
OFF 1.
No circuitry is powered. Please note that some parts of the mains entry section still carry live mains.
STANDBY 2.
The microprocessor is active..
ON 3.
All circuits active.
Unpacking the RP-1
Carefully remove the unit and accessory kit from the carton, visually check for shipping damage. Contact both the shipper and your Lyngdorf Audio representative immediately if the unit bears any sign of damage from mishandeling. All Lyngdorf Audio equipment is carefully inspected before leaving our factory.
Keep shipping carton and packing material for future use or in the unlikely event that the unit needs servicing. If this unit is shipped without the original packaging, dam­age could occur and void the warranty.
Serial Number Registration
Please record the serial number of your RP-1 here for future reference. The serial number is printed on the label on the rear panel. You will need this serial number, should you ever require service for your RP-1.

Introduction
Congratulations on the purchase of your Lyngdorf Audio RP-1 with RoomPerfect™.
This ‘Black Box’ expands your existing music system with the most advanced room correction system on the market. It is implemented in such a way that you will always achieve the perfect result. No com­puter needed, no acoustic knowledge needed, no user input needed. We leave nothing to chance in the fully automated calibration process.
However, for the advanced user there are plenty of challenges since the RP-1 is also a complete ‘Control Centre’ that allows you to build advanced multi-way passive or active speaker systems. This is possible due to the very powerful built-in DSP ‘engine’ which facilitates signal routing, creation of active cross­overs, delay settings etc.
In fact we believe the RP-1 to be a true ‘Black Box’ in the way that it sets new standards for what’s pos­sible to improve sonically in a music system.

Also, it is possible to mix balanced and unbalanced connections - i.e. to connect e.g. the main channel via the balanced output and the line chan­nel via the unbalanced output.
Never connect balanced and unbalanced Line or Main out at the same time. Only connect either balanced or unbalanced for each Main out, Line out.

Connecting the RP-1
The photos used are only meant as visual aids to show the versatility of the RP-1, Lyngdorf Audio doesn’t necessarily carry all other products with the described speci­fi cations in the product assortment.
Connecting to sources and amplifi ers
The RP-1 is very simple to hook up. There are three basic ways to connect the RP-1 to your system.
1. Connect all sources to your preamplifi er and connect it to the RP-1 input. Then connect the RP-1 output signal to a poweramplifi er.
