Setting up the amplifier This chapter provides you with information on the amplifier regarding installation, hookups and settings.
Installing the amplifier
7 inches (177.8 mm) minimum
2 inches (50.8 mm) minimum
When you mount the amplifier, note the following: Place the amplifier on a flat and level surface. When installing it in a cabinet, make sure the back of
the cabinet is open to allow adequate ventilation, prevent heat buildup, and prolong the life of the unit.
Place a board under the amplifier if it is located on a carpet to allow adequate ventilation on the bottom.
Make sure the weight is equally distributed on each of its four feet.
Do not place anything on the top of the amplifier that might block the ventilation holes and cause malfunction.
Do not place anything on the front or rear panel that might damage the amplifiers control buttons and connectors.
Use caution when placing the unit on surfaces that have been specially treated (with wax, oil, polish, etc.) as staining or discoloration of the surface may result.
Leave at least 3 inches (76.2 mm) on each side for ventilation.

Before hooking up the amplifier, be sure the power cord is unplugged. Refer to the illustration below for the connector locations.
IR REMOTE IR IN jack (A) Plug the output from an IR receiver into the IR REMOTE IR IN jack of the amplifier. You can then operate the amplifier by using any IR-based control system.
Tip Make sure that you match the IR ID switches with the correct code table (page 12).
IR REMOTE IR OUT jack (A) Connect this output to any IR input to pass codes to another device. Use only a 3.5 mm monaural mini plug as shown below.
Tip Plug a 3.5 mm monaural mini plug from the IR REMOTE IR OUT jack to the IR REMOTE IR IN jack of the another TA-MR2ES amplifier. Make sure that you match the IR ID switches on the amplifier with the codes set programmed into the controller.
Hooking up the Amplifier
12V TRIGGER IN jack (B) Hook up the 12V TRIGGER IN jack of the amplifier with an integrated AV system to allow the AV system to activate the amplifier. Use a 3.5 mm monaural mini plug cable.
12V TRIGGER OUT jack (B) Hook up the 12V TRIGGER OUT jack of the amplifier to any 12-volt triggered device. Use a 3.5 mm monaural mini plug cable.
AUDIO IN jack (C) Hook up the audio output of the multi-room system to the AUDIO IN jack of the amplifier. Use RCA audio cables.
AUDIO OUT jack (C) Hook up the AUDIO OUT jack of the amplifier audio input to any component or to another TA-MR2ES amplifier. Use RCA audio cables.
SPEAKERS terminals (D) Hook up the speaker cables to the SPEAKERS terminals. Leave the AC power cord unplugged when you hook up speaker cables.
AC IN jack (E) Connect the supplied AC power cord to the AC IN jack.
Caution Make sure you connect the 3.5 mm monaural mini plug cable to the correct jack on the amplifier. Otherwise, it may cause a malfunction. For example, if you want to connect the mini plug cable to the IR REMOTE IR IN jack, make sure you do not connect it to the 12V TRIGGER IN jack.

Selecting the method to activate the amplifier
There are three methods to activate the amplifier. Select the turn-on method by setting AUTO POWER SELECTOR as follows:
12V TRIGGER When there is no voltage detected at the trigger input, the amplifier remains off. When the sensing circuitry detects voltage, the amplifier will turn on. When the sensing circuitry detects no voltage, the amplifier turns off instantly.
IR IN When the amplifier detects the appropriate POWER ON IR code through the IR REMOTE IR IN, the amplifier will power on. When the amplifier detects the POWER OFF IR code, the amplifier turns off instantly.
AUDIO SENSING When there is only a small amount or no audio signal detected at either the left or right input, the amplifier remains off. However, the sensing circuitry is always on. When the sensing circuitry detects sufficient audio signal present at any of the audio inputs, the amplifier will be turned on automatically. The sensing circuitry will wait for around three minutes after the audio signal stops to turn the amplifier off.
Tip Be sure to press POWER to turn on the power after completing all the settings for the amplifier. Otherwise, the amplifier cannot be activated.

Operating the amplifier This chapter provides you with information on amplifier operation.
Adjusting the maximum volume level
You can control the maximum volume level to avoid damaging your speakers by adjusting the variable attenuator screws behind the cover lid on the front panel.
1 Remove the cover lid. For details, refer page 6.
2 Insert a screw driver into the ATTENUATOR L or ATTENUATOR R screws to adjust the maximum output level of the amplifier to match your system. To increase the volume, turn the screw driver clockwise and to reduce the volume, turn counter- clockwise. To adjust to maximum or minimum, turn the screw driver fully.
3 Place the cover lid back to its original position.
Tips You may adjust the left and right output level independantly. The default setting for the variable attenuator is set to
minimum.

Other Information This chapter provides you with additional information that will help you understand and maintain your system.
Precautions
On safety Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet, unplug
the amplifier and have it checked by a qualified service technician before operating it any further.
The unit is not disconnected from the AC power source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.
On power sources Before operating the unit, check that the operating voltage of
the unit is identical to that of your local power supply. The operating voltage is indicated on the nameplate on the back of the unit.
If you are not going to use the unit for a long time, be sure to disconnect it from the AC power source. To disconnect the lead, grasp the plug itself; never pull the cord.
On placement Place the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to
prevent heat build-up in the amplifier. Do not place the unit on a soft surface such as a rug that might
block the ventilation holes on the bottom. Do not place the unit in a location near heat sources, or in a
place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, or mechanical shock.
On adjusting the volume Do not turn up the maximum volume level by adjusting the
ATTENUATOR L/R on the front panel too high while listening to very low input levels. If you do, the speakers may be damaged when high volume source is played.
On cleaning Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a soft cloth slightly
moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent, such as alcohol or benzine.
If you have any questions or problems concerning the amplifier, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

Troubleshooting
If you experience any of the following difficulties while using the amplifier, use this troubleshooting guide to help you to remedy the problem. Should any problem persist, consult your nearest Sony dealer.
There is no sound, or only a very low-level sound is heard. , Check that the amplifier is turned on. , Check that the speakers are connected correctly
and securely. , Press MUTING to check the muting status. , Check to see if the protection circuit on the
amplifier has been activated because of a short circuit (the IN USE indicator flashes red). Turn off the amplifier, eliminate the short-circuit problem and turn the power on again.
, Adjust the ATTENUATOR on the amplifier and the volume on the learned remote.
, If all steps above cannot remedy the problem, clear the amplifiers memory (page 15).
The left and right sounds are unbalanced or reversed. , Check that the speakers and components are
connected correctly and securely. , Adjust the ATTENUATOR L and R on the front
panel behind the cover lid.
There is severe hum or noise. , Check that the speakers are connected securely. , Check that the connecting cords are away from a
transformer or motor, and at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from a TV set or fluorescent light.
,Move your TV away from the audio components. , The plugs and jacks are dirty. Wipe them with a
cloth slightly moistened with alcohol.
The IR Remote Control does not function. , Point the Remote Control at the remote sensor
on the IR receiver. , Remove any obstacles in the path between the
Remote Control and the IR receiver. , Replace both batteries in the Remote Control with
new ones, if they are weak. , Check that you have selected the correct function
on the Remote Control. ,Make sure the IR code setting is correct. ,Make sure the IR ID TEST switch is set to OFF.
The POWER switch is on but the IN USE indicator does not light up when AUTO POWER SELECTOR is set to IR IN. , Clear the amplifiers memory (page 15).
