Plinius products are designed and manufactured by Plinius Audio Limited, New Zealand. 2 PLINIUS ANNIVERSARY Introduction Congratulations on your decision to become the proud owner of this Plinius Anniversary Integrated Amplifier. This manual has been prepared to help you understand the operation of your amplifier, and to provide information about its design and the variety of ways it may be used. We have designed and manufactured this amplifier to reproduce your favourite music faithfully and accurately. With a little care and a full understanding of the operating recommendations in this manual, your Plinius Anniversary Integrated Amplifier will provide years of high-quality, trouble-free performance. Please take the time to read this manual thoroughly before using your amplifier. SERIAL NUMBER FINAL TEST CERTIFIED BY INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER 3 Design Philosophy The design of the Anniversary set draws on the aesthetic values of strength and simplicity of the past 30 years and continues our company’s focus on meeting the high standards required to always be at ‘The Heart of Music’. The unique design of the Anniversary set incorporates the current design language of Plinius, with the push buttons on the front panel operating the control system on the integrated amplifier, while maintaining our history in the anodised brushed finishes. The unique subtle blue-silver colouring portraying a titanium strength and the black ultra matt chassis highlighted by Plinius Blue markings, creates a fusion of future and history. The strong full aluminium wrap of the outer skin and cover creates a clean crisp statement of strength, and the simplicity of the control and display layout maintains the interface that is now synonymous to Plinius. The Integrated Amplifier and CD player both now carry a new foot which allows for some height adjustment and to improve resonance qualities. Additional changes to the layout of internal components and changes to the rear panel along with fine tuning of aesthetic detailing, further illustrate our 30 years of striving to create ‘The Heart of Music’.

You may now proceed to lift the unit from the box, Once the unit is removed you can proceed with the removal of the foam end caps. These caps are designed to fit on the front and back of the unit for maximum protection. Retain the packaging for future transportation of this unit. Placement & Ventilation Your Anniversary Integrated Amplifier may operate at a moderately high temperature, especially during extended listening sessions. The ideal location is upon a rigid stand, away from direct contact with any temperature sensitive materials, furniture or deep pile carpets. Ventilation through and around the amplifier should also be kept unimpeded. Please ensure that the heat vents (slots in the base and lid) are not covered or restricted in any way. The Anniversary Integrated Amplifier design incorporates a very high level of mechanical decoupling of the input and output. It can however still be influenced by acoustical feedback in the operating environment. The use of acoustic cones or a suitably spiked amplifier stand or table may further enhance the performance of this preamplifier. Consult your Plinius dealer for further advice if required. INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER 5 Care & Maintenance With simple care and maintenance your Plinius product can be kept looking and operating like new for many years to come. MAINTAINING THE CONNECTORS Exposed connectors such as the RCA connectors will be subject to environmental factors, and over time the surface may degrade. This can be greatly reduced by fitting readily available ‘RCA caps’ to reduce the effects of environmental elements on the RCA connectors. These RCA caps or RCA shorting caps can also provide sonic benefits. Connector cleaning products are also available to clean the RCA and cable connectors and frequent checks and cleaning will help maintain a good signal connection. NOTE: DO NOT use RCA shorting caps on output connectors or power amplifier input connectors. Use RCA shorting caps on unused preamplifier stage input connectors only. Standard RCA shielding caps can be used on any unused input or output connectors. MAINTAINING THE SWITCHES Switches should be maintained by using each various switch setting periodically. Even if a switch or a switch setting is not used, it is a good idea to toggle small switches and turn rotary switches though the full range of the switch several times in succession to keep the contacts active. Performing this simple action will promote longevity of the switch contacts. SURFACE CLEANING From time to time you may wish to clean the surface of your Plinius equipment to remove dust, or any material build up from the atmosphere or on commonly used controls.
