Introduction Thank you for purchasing the Wyred 4 Sound mINT. This compact integrated amplifier is a very versatile unit that will fit well in many systems for years to come. Extensive amounts of time and engineering have been applied to produce remarkable performance and a noteworthy feature set in a chassis smaller than the average DAC. The transparent nature of a Wyred 4 Sound product is able to reproduce your favorite recording with an abundance of detail and clarity.
Two analog inputs (Auxiliary 1 and 2) are side by side on the rear panel. An alternate function of Aux 2 is HT bypass (Home Theater bypass) and is activated via a push switch on the back. When HT is selected, the trigger in becomes one activation point for the HT mode. Aux Out (preamp output) will work very well to incorporate a powered subwoofer. In addition to the pre-out the mINT has a Fixed out that will typically be used to send a signal to a recording device or feed a signal to a second system.
Getting connected CAUTION: Disconnect the power cord or put the power switch in the “off” position before making any connections to your integrated amplifier to minimize the risk of electric shock and possible loudspeaker damage. Power your mINT “on” after all final connections have been made. Each binding post is made of highly ductile “OFC” copper alloy. Both clamping nuts are built out of one piece, and offers excellent grip.
Front panel operation The mINT is very simple to operate from the remote or front panel. A power button with an illuminated ring light is located on the lower right portion of the front panel. When the mINT is plugged in and the rear power switch is in the “on” position the ring light will be green. To turn the unit on press the power button on the front and the ring light will then change to blue. There are 5 input select buttons on the front located on either side of the volume knob.
control. This allows you to use the volume of your processor to adjust the level of your whole system. This is a configuration switch and must be set with the mINT powered completely off! Fixed Out/Main In In cases where your speakers require a active crossover for bi or tri-amping, an integrated amplifier can make things interesting. It can be impossible to insert a active crossover into the signal path of most integrated amps. The flexibility of the mINT doesn’t stop here.
