Power On and Off
Press the POWER switch to ON, the Red LED above the
STANDBY/ON Push-button lights to indicate the MA2275
is in Standby Mode. To
Switch On the MA2275
press the STANDBY/
ON Push-button on the
Front Panel or the
POWER Push-button on
the Remote Control.
The title TUBE WARMUP will illuminate on the Front
Panel (located to the right of the STANDBY/ON Push-but-
ton) with the Audio Outputs muted until the tubes reach
operating temperature. Refer to figures 9 and 10.
Notes: 1. For normal
operation, switch the
MA2275 On and Off
with the Standby/On
Push-button. If the
Tube Integrated
Amplifier is not going
to be used for an
extended period of
time, turn Off all AC
Power with the
Power Switch on the
Front Panel.
2. The amount of time
required for Tube
Warmup is dependant
upon the temperature
of the Tubes inside
the MA2275 when the
STANDBY/ON Push-
button is depressed.
3. If there is an
interruption of AC
Power to the MA2275
while it is On, the
internal circuitry will
sense this condition
and will
automatically switch
the MA2275 back On
when AC Power is
restored.
Input Source Selection
Select the desired Source with
the INPUT Selector Control

Bass and Treble Controls
Adjust the BASS and TREBLE controls to suit your listen-
ing preferences. The Bass or Treble intensity can be in-
creased with clockwise rotation and decreased with coun-
terclockwise rotation.
Meter Mode Selection
Rotate the Meter Mode Switch to select the meter opera-
tion mode you desire. Refer to figure 11 and 12.
Lights Off - Meter lights are turned off and the meter will
continue to indicate
the power output.
Watts- The meters respond to
all the musical infor-
mation being pro-
duced by the ampli-
fier. They indicate to
an accuracy of at least
95% of the power
output with only a
single cycle of a 2000Hz tone burst.
Hold - The meter pointer is locked to the highest
power peak in a sequence of peaks. It is elec-
tronically held to this power level until a
higher power peak passes through the ampli-
fier. The meter pointer will then rise to the
newer higher indication. If no further power
peaks are reached, the meter pointer will very
slowly return to its rest position or lower
power level. The decay rate is approximately
6dB per minute.
Balance Control
Adjust the BALANCE Control as needed to achieve ap-
proximately equal listening volume levels in each Loud-
speaker. Rotate the BALANCE Control clockwise to em-
phasize the Right Channel by reducing the volume level of
the Left Channel. Rotate the BALANCE Control counter-
clockwise to de-emphasize the Right Channel until equal
Balance of both Channels is achieved.
