Welcome to Ayre Please send in your warranty registration card so we can stay in contact with you. Your Ayre AX-7 offers a significant advance in the musical performance of high-fidelity equipment. The warmth and immediacy of a live performance are apparent from the first listening.
Connections and Installation The Ayre AX-7 is easy to hook up and use. The following guidelines will ensure that the installation goes smoothly. Location Do not stack the Ayre AX-7 directly with other components, as this may restrict the air flow or induce hum into the audio circuitry.
Inputs When you have a choice, a balanced connection will offer slightly higher sound quality than an unbalanced connection. The Ayre AX-7 offers two pairs of balanced inputs and two pairs of unbalanced inputs. Balanced connections are made via three-pin XLR connectors, while unbalanced connections are made via RCA connectors.
tape outputs are switched on and off at the front panel. Please refer to the section “Controls and Operation” for further information. If a recorder is not installed in your system, the “Moon” input performs exactly like the other unbalanced inputs.
AC Power The best sound quality is normally achieved when the AX-7 is plugged directly into the wall outlet, without using any power strips or power line conditioners.
Controls and Operation At the heart of the Ayre AX-7’s control system is a sophisticated microprocessor. This microprocessor is normally “asleep” and all digital systems are turned off, including the master clock.
low setting. After that, the current volume setting is retained in memory, and will remain constant when changing inputs or when the unit is placed in “Standby”. Input Source Selection The source component may also be selected with the remote control.
Mute Muting and un-muting may also be performed with the remote control. The mute button provides an easy way to temporarily turn the volume of the AX-7 to “zero”. The current volume control setting is retained in memory and appears on the display.
Standby The standby function may also be operated with the remote control. The Ayre AX-7 is very energy-efficient, and only consumes about as much power as a standard light bulb when playing. If you wish to further reduce power consumption when not playing music, the unit may be placed in standby mode.
The chosen input is now programmed for “Processor Pass-Through” operation, disabling the now redundant volume control of the AX-7. When that input is selected, the preamplifier section of the AX-7 is set to unity gain (0 dB), and the volume is controlled directly from the surround-sound processor.
