P ow er Control Connections The Citation 5.1 amplifier features a built-in system that will automatically turn on the amplifier when another device in the system is switched on.
If this is the only remote controlled amplifier in the system, no further connections are needed. If multiple r emote controlled amplifiers are used, connect the “R emote DC OUT” jack on one amplifier to the “Remote DC IN” on the next unit in the system.
Channel Configurations The Citation 5.1 may be used in a variety of configurations. Consult your dealer or installer for advice on which may be best for your system and listening requirements. Four-Channel Operation In multi-channel use such as a home theater system, the four channels may be allocated in a variety of ways.
S ystem Connections Note: When making connections between any source components or proces- sors or preamplifiers and the Citation 5.1, or when making any connections to speakers, be certain that both the input device and the amplifier are turned off.
I nput and B ridging Connections The R CA jacks and bridging switches on the unit’ s rear panel are used to connect your surround processor or pr eamplifier to the amplifier , as well as to select the channel configuration.
Four-Channel Operation: U sing high quality interconnect cables, connect one output of your processor to an amplifier input channel. There is no special priority as to which specific channel (i.e. left, right, center , etc.) is connected to which amplifier channel when all four channels are used individually .
T o bridge the two channels, put the switch between the two input connectors in the “Bridged ” position with the toggle switch pointing down. In this configuration, connections to the speakers receiving the normal po wer feed from the unbridged channels should be made to the connectors for Channels One and T wo in the normal fashion.
F or two-channel use, make cer tain that BO TH bridging switches are engaged by switching them down, to the “bridged ” position. In the bridged mode, the connections to your speakers should be made using only the top row of binding post connections.
S peaker W ire P reparation and Connection Once the proper hookup has been selected using the previous section, make the physical connection using the following instructions.
icons next to each pair of terminal posts will guide you to the correct connections. When the connections are made, twist the cap back so that the connection is secured, but do not o vertighten or use tools, as this may break the delicate wire strands and decrease system performance.
Operation Operation of the Citation 5.1 is simple. There are no contr ols to adjust once the installation is complete. After all connections have been made to the amplifier ’ s inputs and speaker termi- nals, connect the AC po wer cord to the socket on the r ear panel.
For Automatic Operation: Make certain that all connections to the Citation Controller or P rocessor , and to any other Citation power amplifiers in the system hav e been correctly made as shown on pages 13 through 16.

Input/Output Protection U nder some conditions, such as a shor ted speaker wire, DC voltage on an input connection or thermal overload, the Citation 5.1 will place itself in a “ protect” mode to prevent damage to your speakers. When this happens the power indicator will turn red and no signal will be hear d.
