BI- BI- BI- BI-WIRING WIRING WIRING WIRING
Bi-wiring uses two pairs of loudspeaker cables for each channel loudspeaker. You will notice that the rear
panel of your Plinius 9100 has two pairs of output terminals for this purpose. When using bi-wires,
always connect positive (+) to positive (+) and the same for the negative (-) terminals.

It is important to achieve good stereo imaging in your listening room. By observing the wiring
instructions above, each power amplifier/loudspeaker combination should be in phase. If you experience
poor stereo image and/or a lack of bass, check that the loudspeaker wiring has been connected correctly.
We recommend that you use one of the easily obtainable ‘test discs’ to help you ensure both phasing and
channel orientation are correct. If in doubt, consult your PLINIUS
PLINIUS PLINIUS PLINIUS dealer for advice.
Naturally it is also important to make sure all the leads carrying signals for the RIGHT channel loudspeaker
are connected to the RIGHT input to the amplifier from your preamplifier or CD player etc. Signals for the
LEFT channel should be wired in a similar fashion.

Now that your Plinius 9100 Integrated Amplifier is configured correctly, the mains cable can be plugged
into the IEC socket on the back of the amplifier. Re-check the speaker cables are connected correctly.
Turn on the power switch on the rear panel. The display LED will pulsate for ten seconds as the internal
microprocessor allows the internal circuitry to stabilise before opening the mute circuit. You can now
enjoy your new Plinius 9100 Integrated Amplifier.

You will find that the Plinius 9100 will become noticeably ‘purer’ in sound after being on for a period of
time. We usually recommend waiting at least 24 hours before expecting the best quality of sound
reproduction from your amplifier. Also, as the Plinius 9100 uses very little power while on, we suggest
leaving the unit turned on so that it will always be at it’s sonic best.
