MOON Aurora Multi-Channel Power Amplifier
Operating the Aurora
We recommend that you leave your MOON Aurora Multi-Channel Power 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 amplifier may
not be a bad idea. Once fully “broken-in”, please keep in mind that your Aurora will require several hours of playing time
before it reaches its peak performance after you’ve powered it up again.
Turning on your MOON Aurora for the first time
Prior to turning the amplifier on for the first time, make sure that every cable is properly connected to avoid any problems.
Then, turn on your preamplifier/processor connected to the Aurora. Finally, power up your Aurora in the following manner:
1) Flick the main rocker switch labeled “POWER” to the ‘1’ (on) position
2) Next, momentarily press the push button labeled “Standby” located on the front panel. The amplifier will make
a faint click sound, confirming that everything is in order. The blue LED on the front panel indicates the that the
amplifier is powered up and ready for use.
On and Off Sequence
To avoid having any annoying noises (i.e. “thumps” and “pops”) emanate from your speakers when powering your Aurora on
or off, you should:
1) Always power up your preamp/processor prior to powering up your Aurora
2) Always power down your Aurora prior to your powering down your preamp/processor
Using the 12 Volt Trigger
When the Aurora is off, it can be powered on by either the trigger or the push button. When the Aurora
is on, it can be
powered off by the trigger. It can also be powered off using the push button, but only if the trigger isn’t in «on» mode.
The
“MAIN POWER” switch must
remain in the “on” position (“1”) at all times for the 12 V trigger to function.
Troubleshooting
Your MOON Aurora Multi-Channel amplifier is equipped with a unique self-diagnostic system that will automatically shut itself
down when it detects DC (direct current) from any input. If your Aurora amplifier turns itself off or will not power up, there
may very well be DC present in one (or more) of the amplifier’s inputs coming from one (or more) of your
preamplifier/processor’s outputs. You must determine if there is any DC present. The best way to accomplish this is by first
powering down the Aurora via the main power rocker switch, then disconnecting all inputs to the Aurora leaving only the
speakers connected. Attempt to power up your Aurora again: A successful power up will indicate the presence of DC coming
from your preamplifier/processor or one of your signal sources (i.e. DVD Player).
If your Aurora still doesn’t power up, turn off the main power switch and check the AC fuse. If the fuse appears OK, put it
back in its socket and then try to power up again the usual way. If the fuse is blown, replace it with a fuse of the same
rating, and repeat the above process. At this point, you should be able to power up your Aurora. If not, immediately consult
your dealer for assistance.
