The N
536’s core design principles are its very high open-loop linearity and
extremely high bias current. Because the amplier circuitry was designed
to have such intrinsically high performance, it requires very little feedback to achieve impeccably low distortion and enormously wide bandwidth. Employing unusually high bias current enables superb linearity with wide bandwidth: nearly immune to the effects of parasitic capacitances, the N

536 requires special care during installation to ensure optimal
Unpacking
Caution!
Placement and
Ventilation
DO save all packing materials for possible future shipping needs. DO inspect the amplier for signs of damage during shipment. If damage is
discovered, contact your authorized Mark Levinson dealer for assistance in making appropriate claims. DO locate and remove the accessory bag from the carton. Make sure it contains all of the items listed in the “What’s in the Box” table on the previous page. If not, contact your authorized Mark Levinson dealer.
DO NOT attempt to lift or move the power amplifier without adequate assistance. The shipping weight of the amplifier exceeds what a single person should lift alone. To avoid injury or damage to the unit, at least two people are required to lift or move the amplifier. Knit white gloves with special gripping surfaces on the palms and fingers are included with the amplifier. Wear these gloves when lifting or moving the amplifier.
DO install the power amplier on its own shelf for proper ventilation. DO install the amplier chassis on a solid, at, level surface. DO install the power amplier close to associated components to keep
interconnecting cables as short as possible.
DO select a dry, well-ventilated location out of direct sunlight. DO allow at least 3 to 4 inches (8 to 10cm) of clearance above and on each
side of the amplier for proper heat dissipation. DO allow at least 6 inches (15cm) of clearance behind the amplier so that
the power cord and cables have space to bend without becoming crimped or strained.
DO NOT place the amplier chassis on a thick rug or carpet or cover the amplier with a cloth, as this might prevent proper cooling.
DO NOT obstruct the ventilation holes on the top and bottom of the
chassis or reduce airow through the amplier. DO NOT place the amplier chassis near low-level components.
The power amplier is capable of producing large output currents and hence signicant magnetic elds, which can induce noise in sensitive
components.
DO NOT expose the power amplier to high temperatures, humidity,
steam, smoke, dampness, or excessive dust. Avoid installing near radiators and other heat-producing appliances.
Warning!
4
MAKE SURE all components are properly grounded. Do not defeat the safety purpose of polarized or grounding-type plugs with “ground-lifter” or “cheater” adapters. Doing so may cause dangerous voltage to build up between components, which can result in personal injuries and/or product damage.
Nº536 Series Power Amplifier
Power Requirements
The amplier is congured at the factory for 100, 120, or 230 VAC power operation at 50Hz or 60Hz. Before operating the amplier, ensure that the
power label on the rear panel near the AC input connector indicates the correct operating voltage.
Caution!
Caution!
DO NOT attempt to adjust the operating voltage. Consult a Mark Levinson dealer if the operating voltage is incorrect or must be changed for relocation purposes. Different operating voltages may require the use of different power cords and/or attachment plugs. Contact a Mark Levinson dealer for additional assistance.
This amplier is capable of passing remarkable sound at exceptional power
levels. Depending on listening habits, loudspeaker demands, and the number
of power ampliers present in the system, it is possible that the electrical
service may become the limiting performance factor of your system.
If this case occurs, consider installing a dedicated AC circuit for the system. Contact a licensed electrician for assistance. If more than one AC circuit is providing power to the system, contact a licensed electrician to ensure that all components are operating with the same solid, low-impedance ground reference.
Building regulations and electrical codes differ from location to location, making it impossible to anticipate the requirements of amplifier high-current AC circuits. Contact a local, licensed electrician for further information.

One balanced and one single-ended (unbalanced) connector is available for each audio channel input.
Accepts a signal from a preamplier with balanced outputs via the XLR connector. A small toggle switch selects either the balanced (XLR) or single-
ended (RCA) input connector. Make sure the toggle switch is set to the
position closest to the XLR connector.
The pin assignments are consistent with the standards adopted by the Audio
Engineering Society. Refer to the operating manual of your preamplier
to ensure that the pin assignments of its balanced output connectors correspond to the No-536. If not, wire the cables so that the appropriate output pin connects to the equivalent input pin.

Note
The RCA connector accepts unbalanced or single-ended signal from
preampliers with RCA outputs. If your preamplier has both RCA and XLR outputs, use the XLR output. Set the toggle switch to the position
closest to the RCA connector.
The No-536 amplier utilizes custom-made, gold-plated, high-current loudspeaker binding posts. The positive binding posts, labeled + (positive), are red; the negative binding posts are black and are labeled – (negative).
Two of each binding post are present on the No-536, enabling bi-wiring for compatible loudspeakers. If your loudspeakers support bi-wiring, connect both red (positive) terminals to the red terminals on the loudspeaker, and connect both black (negative) terminals to the black terminals on the loudspeaker.
If your loudspeakers do not support bi-wiring or you prefer not to employ
this connection conguration, simply connect one of the positive and one
of the negative terminals to the respective loudspeaker terminals. There is
no additional conguration needed to disable bi-wiring output capability.
Banana plugs can also be used to connect the speaker cables to the loudspeaker binding posts. Banana plugs are not available on the 230 VAC model.
Ensure when connecting the loudspeaker that at least one positive and one negative binding post is used. There is NO ground reference.
Caution!
Caution!
Be careful to not short the positive and negative outputs together. Do not short the positive or negative outputs to chassis or any other safety ground. The amplifier must be powered off during installation and whenever input and/or output cables are being connected. This is a balanced amplifier and all binding posts are active at all times. Do not attempt to connect any binding posts to ground.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN the binding posts. The innovative design of these binding posts provides more leverage; hence, high-contact, tight pressure connections are achieved when finger-tightened.
DO NOT FORCE the binding post “wings” over a bent or oversized connector. Doing so may damage the binding post.

Trigger Input and
Output
AC input
Caution!
Network Connection
The rear panel of the amplier has two trigger connectors – one input
and one output. The trigger input can receive a 12V DC signal from a connected component. The trigger output passes through the trigger input
signal, enabling a daisy chain of ampliers to be controlled by a single
trigger signal.
The triggers enable the power amplier to be automatically powered on
or put into Standby mode by the state of other devices in the system. The
trigger output can also affect other power ampliers in the same manner.
Receiving a trigger signal causes the amplier to change its power state. If the amplier is powered on, then 0V on the trigger signal puts the amplier into Standby mode. Conversely, an amplier in Standby mode is
powered on when 12VDC is received on the trigger input.
Provides AC power to the amplier when the supplied power cord is connected from the AC Input connector on the rear panel to an electrical outlet.
Before operating the amplifier, verify that the voltage label near the AC input connector indicates an operating voltage compatible with the voltage level of the electrical outlet you intend to use.
The No-536 connects to your network through an Ethernet cable. When connected, the No-536’s Ethernet connector’s status LED ashes.
RS-232 Connector
Operating States
This connector is provided to enable conguration and control of the amplier from a personal computer equipped with a serial port. Contact
your dealer or installer for information on how to use this feature.
Operation
The amplier is designed for continuous operation and has three operating states:
Off – AC power is disconnected using the rear-panel Power switch or by
removing the power cord from the rear panel.
Standby – This is an energy-saving mode with three options.
Green (Factory Default): This is the lowest-power standby mode
for maximum energy savings. You will experience a longer power-up process from standby. Ethernet and RS-232 are disabled in this mode.
Power Save: Moderate energy-saving standby mode, which enables
wake-up via RS-232 or Ethernet.
Normal: This mode mutes audio outputs, but keeps all of its control
and audio circuits powered. This mode provides the least amount of power conservation but allows the No-536’s audio circuits to remain warmed up to deliver optimal performance at all times.
On – The amplier is fully powered and all outputs are active.
Caution!
