MOON i.5 Integrated Amplifier Congratulations! Thank you for selecting the MOON i.5 Integrated Amplifier as a part of your music/cinema system. This component has been designed to offer state-of-the-art high-end performance in an elegant package, while retaining all the sonic hallmarks on which Simaudio has made its reputation. We have spared no effort to ensure that it is amongst the finest two-channel Integrated Amplifiers available in its class.
MOON i.5 Integrated Amplifier Introduction Your MOON i.5 integrated amplifier incorporates many significant design features to achieve its “world class” level of performance.
MOON i.5 Integrated Amplifier Front Panel Controls Figure 1: MOON i.5 Front panel The front panel will look similar to Figure 1 (above). On the lower left side you will find 9 push buttons with an indicator LED directly above each one. The remote control sensor is located directly to the left of the “Standby” button and it should never be blocked or remote control operation may be compromised. The “Standby” button disengages the input section from the rest of the i.5’s circuitry.
MOON i.5 Integrated Amplifier Rear Panel Connections Figure 2: MOON i.5 Rear panel The rear panel will look similar to Figure 2 (above). There are five (5) pairs of single-ended inputs on RCA connectors labeled CD, DVD, TUNER. VIDEO and AUX The left channel inputs are located on top and the corresponding right channel inputs are located directly below. The MOON i.
MOON i.5 Integrated Amplifier Operating the i.5 We recommend that you leave your MOON i.5 Integrated Amplifier powered up at all times to maintain optimal performance. In the event that you plan to be away from your home for a few days, powering off the Integrated Amplifier may not be a bad idea. Once fully “broken-in”, please keep in mind that your i.5 will require several hours of playing time before it reaches its peak performance after you’ve powered it up again.
MOON i.5 Integrated Amplifier Remote Control Operation The MOON i.5 Integrated Amplifier uses the ‘CRM-2’ full-function remote control (figure 3). It operates on the Philips RC-5 communication protocol and is can be used with other Simaudio MOON components. The ‘CRM-2’ remote uses two AA batteries (included). To install them, simply slide the back plate off in the direction of the arrow; insert the batteries in the correct direction and then replace the back plate.
