AV Bypass
AV Bypass mode allows the output of an AV surround sound processor to be connected and then routed directly to the
output of the CPA3000. The volume control and signal processing are bypassed so that the signal from the AV processor
reaches the power amplifier exactly as if it were connected directly. This has the advantage of allowing the CPA3000 to
remain in an AV system to give the best possible stereo two channel playback whilst still being able to switch to AV
bypass mode to allow the processor to playback multichannel film content.
Connect the front left and right outputs from your AV processor to the inputs on the back of the CPA3000 marked A/V.
Connect to the power amplifier as normal via either the balanced or RCA output on the CPA3000. Press the RESET
button or Bypass on the remote control to activate the bypass option.
Note: The volume control in the CPA3000 will be bypassed so please check before switching on your AV processor that
the volume is turned down. When switching back please check that the volume on the CPA3000 has not inadvertently
been turned up before playing any music.
