Getting started
Model A is relatively simple to use and,
provided it is used within its limits, it
requires no special care in everyday
operation.
It is normally operational, and achieves
claimed specifications right from the start,
though it still needs 10 - 15 days of burning
in to perform its best in subjective sonic
terms. Afterwards, it is generally enough to
leave it powered on for half an hour before
critical listening.
It is not harmful if Model A is left constantly
p o w e r e d o n , h o w e v e r g e n e r a l
recommendation to turn such devices off
whenever out of home applies regardless.
Also, it is important not to block opening
holes at the back plate, as they provide air
circulation into and from unit interior, thus
providing proper cooling.
Other than amplifier itself, a packing box
comprises mains cable. This cable is
industry standard one, and its purpose is to
make a unit instantly operable. However to
utilize the most of Model A sonic potential,
use of a higher quality mains cable is highly
recommended.
Connections
No special knowledge is required to
connect Model A into the system.
Mains connector is standard IEC C14 (cable
is supplied, as stated above), and is located
at the back panel.
Input connectors are RCA. Audial offers
several options regarding Model A input. It
can be one or two inputs amplifier, with or
without volume control, and volume
control can be low impedance or standard
one. When using low impedance volume
control, Model A input impedance gets as
low as 750 Ohm, and you should make sure
that your source is able to perform well
with such a load.
Output loudspeaker connectors are binding
posts, and they accept majority of cables,
spades or banana plugs.
Model A does not invert polarity (absolute
phase). Hence with source that also does
not invert polarity the speakers should be
wired in phase, so black to black (ground),
and red to red (live / hot).
Support
Basic use of Audial Model A is simple. It has
two switches (power on/off and input
selector) located at back, and power LED
indicator and volume control knob located
at front plate.
However, due to variety of systems it can be
used in, it is impossible to provide all the
required information on system integration
by user manual. Customers are hence
advised to contact Audial directly in this
regard, whenever it is necessary, by email
info@audialonline.com, or by Audial

Warranty
Audial claims proper working of this
product for two years. Audial is obliged to
correct any malfunction within this period,
at no charge, either by competent repair
service, or by swapping the sold unit with
the new one.
For the units sold directly by Audial, invoice
is also guarantee certificate. Audial
however maintains own data base of
directly sold units, so original buyers
normally will not actually need it. Warranty
is also fully transferrable from original to
subsequent owner(s), however in this case
we will probably ask for the invoice.
