Introduction
Welcome to the Primare A30.3 Amplifier! This chapter introduces you to its key
features, and explains how you can take advantage of its impressive power
handling and superb sound in your system.
WELCOME TO THE A30.3 AMPLIFIER
The A30.3 is a modular power amplifier designed as the ideal output stage in
a home theatre or hi-fi system.
Modular design
The A30.3 is designed as three independent blocks, each with a separate
transformer and power supply, for the ultimate in stability and channel
separation.
Generous power handling
Each section of the A30.3 delivers 120 Watts into 8Ω, giving sufficient power
reserves for home cinema or the reproduction of recorded music. An over-
dimensioned heat sink gives excellent thermal dissipation, ensuring that the
A30.3 will remain cool even with prolonged listening at high volume levels.
Superb quality
The A30.3 delivers its power at an outstanding quality level, making it as
suitable for reproducing high quality recorded music as for home cinema.
Remote power on/off
For convenience the A30.3 can be powered on and off via a remote link
cable, avoiding the need to switch it on or off separately from the preamplifier
in the system.
USING THE A30.3 WITH OTHER PRIMARE
PRODUCTS
Although the A30.3 is flexible enough to act as the output stage in virtually
any system, it is ideal for use with other products in the Primare range, such as
the Primare P30 Processor. The A30.3 can be used as a building block in
conjunction with the Primare A30.2 and A30.5 to create modular systems with
any desired number of matched output stages, and one or more A30 Series
amplifiers can be powered on or off remotely from a P30 using the remote link
connections.

POWER CONNECTION
Warning: Before connecting power check that the required supply voltage,
indicated on the back panel, corresponds to your local AC supply. If a
different voltage is stated on the type plate do not connect the amplifier to the
mains power, and seek advice from your dealer.
Connect the mains power using the enclosed mains cable.
Note: Always disconnect the amplifier from the mains power before
connecting or disconnecting any of the cables.
OUTPUTS
Loudspeaker outputs
Connect the loudspeakers for each channel to the corresponding terminals.
The terminals can accept speaker cables terminated with 4mm banana plugs,
spade terminals, or bare wires. To connect bare wires unscrew the terminal,
pass the bare wire through the hole in the terminal bolt, and clamp the wire in
place by screwing the terminal back down.
INPUTS
Connect the A30.3 to each channel of the preamplifier or processor using the
corresponding phono inputs, using high quality phono leads.
REMOTE LINK
To power the A30.3 on and off remotely from a Primare P30 Processor
connect the REMOTE output from the P30 Processor to one of the REMOTE
LINK sockets on the A30.3, using a twin core cable terminated in 3.5mm jack
plugs. The second REMOTE LINK socket can be used to daisy-chain the
remote output to further A30 series amplifiers.
To use the remote link switch the REMOTE SW switch to the down position.
