A35.2 Stereo Amplifier User Guide10
These instructions help you get the best possible sound
from your A35.2.
Phase
The phase of the AC supply can make a significant
difference to the sound.
Use the Polarity Pen supplied with the A35.2 to verify
which pin is live on your AC power cable.
Ensure that the live pin of the AC power cable is
connected to the left-hand pin of the power connector,
viewed from the back panel:
Live
Burn-in
Your Primare will start to sound best after an initial burn-in
of approximately 24 hours.
You will notice a further smaller improvement in sound
quality for at least another 3 days’ playing.
RS232
The RS232 input allows you to connect the A35.2 to a
controller system. Use a twisted (null modem) cable. For
more information contact Primare at [e-mail] or
visit www.primare.net.
Trigger
For convenience the A35.2 can be powered on and off
via a remote link cable, avoiding the need to switch it on
or off separately from the preamplifier in the system.
To power the A35.2 on and off remotely from a Primare
processor or preamplifier connect the TRIG OUT signal
from the processor/preamplifier to the TRIG IN socket on
the A35.2, using a twin core cable terminated in 3.5mm
jack plugs.
The TRIG OUT socket can be used to daisy-chain the
remote output to further A35 series amplifiers.
Sense
The A35.2 includes an Auto Sense feature that will put
the amplifier into standby if no signal is received for 20
minutes. The amplifier will automatically come out of
standby if an input is sensed.
To enable Auto Sense
Switch the SENSE switch to the ON position.l
Bridged mode
The A35.2 can be used in Bridged Mode, to give twice
the output power to a single loudspeaker.
To configure the A35.2 in Bridged Mode
Switch off the A35.2 using the switch on the back
panel.
Switch the OUTPUT switch to the BRIDGED position.
Connect the input signal to the L RCA or XLR input.
Switch the INPUT switch to RCA or XLR according to
which input you are using.
Connect the loudspeaker between the RIGHT + and
LEFT – speaker terminals.
Connect the supplied shorting link between the
RIGHT – and LEFT + speaker terminals:

Optionally switch the GAIN switch to the +6dB
position to give a higher output.
The A35.2 will now operate in Bridged Mode.
