Dear customer,
Thank you for purchasing a Micromega product. This unit provides ease of use
and sonics of the highest quality. Please pay close attention to this instruction
manual, and read it fully before attempting to operate. It is designed to ensure that you

Checking
Check that the carton has no damage. Should you have any doubt about its
condition, please do not hesitate to contact your dealer. Opening the box, you
should find:
• C5 power chord
• Remote control handset and one CR2025 Lithium battery (do not forget to
remove the plastic protection for your battery).
Mains voltage
MyAMP mains power supply is designed to match the following mains voltage and
frequency range : 85-150 Vac / 47-63 Hz, or 180 - 265 Vac / 47-63 Hz. Please
check that the voltage indicated on the label located above the ac inlet of your unit,
matches your home mains voltage. If not, DO NOT PLUG THE AC MAINS CHORD
and get in contact with your dealer. In any case, you will not be able to change
MyAMP ac mains voltage by yourself.
Interconnect cables
Except for the mains power chord, MyAMP is supplied without interconnect cables.
To get the most out of your unit, we strongly recommend to use good quality interconnect cables. MyCABLE offers a range of cables matching perfectly with MyAMP
quality requirements. We offer short cables, especially designed for My products as
well as Loudspeakers cables designed as the perfect complement of MySPEAKER,

Wiring
MyAMP has 3 line level analog inputs AN1, AN2 and AN3, one USB 24/96
digital input, and two 24/192 SPDIF coaxial and optical inputs. Beside, MyAMP is
equipped with an aptX® Bluetooth module with outstanding sonic performance.
A pairing switch located on the back panel of the unit allows connecting many
different Bluetooth devices giving each one the possibility ot listening to its own
music on MyAMP.
A SUB output gives you the possibility to add an active subwoofer to your system
if needed. The RECORD ouput sends the analog signal content, just before the
volume control, to and external device such as a recorder or a processor.
MyAMP has also a trigger input to control the Standby / On status of the unit by a
5 to 12V DC trigger voltage. On the same connector you can also send, from an
external system, RC5 remote control codes to access directly all MyAMP functions.
The TRIG/IR IN connector wiring diagram as well as the list of remote control codes
is available on our web site under MyAMP/Support.
On MyAMP front panel your will nd a 3.5mm headphone socket. When inserting
a headphone jack the loudspeakers are muted and the headphone volume control
setup becomes independent from the loudspeakers one.

MyAMP power ampliers operate in class AB, thus needing a heatsink. MyAMP is
cooled by forced convection, thanks to an extremely quiet fan and a proprietary
extrusion profile designed by Micromega. This profile can be seen on each side of
the unit. Despite the fact that MyAMp is fully protected against abnormal heatsink
temperature rise, it is strongly recommended to allow 10cm minimal free space on
the left and right sides of the unit. This way, the air ow from left to right will not
suffer any constraints.
You can install MyAMP in a closet as long as it is equipped with air input and output
with sufcient surface and a good ventilation to avoid any air temperature rise that
would trigger MyAMP over temperature protection system.
The following diagram gives you an example how to connect different units
to MyAMP.
Powering up
Once having connected all your system units to MyAMP, you can now plug in the
ac line chord supplied with the unit.
MyAMP is now in “Standby” mode indicated by a red led located below the MyAMP
logo on the bottom left hand side of the unit front panel.
MyAMP meets the latest environment energy regulations and requires less than
500mW in “Standby” mode, making unnecessary the use of a power switch,
removing the electrical stress at each turn on and off will lengthen the life of com-
ponents.
The stanby red led is also used as remote control reception indicator.
