    • Additional information

    These instructions help you get the best possible sound from your I25.

    Phase

    The phase of the AC supply can make a significant difference to the sound.

    Use the Polarity Pen supplied with the I25 to verify which pin is live on your AC power cable.

    Ensure that the live pin of the AC power cable is connected to the left-hand pin of the power connector, viewed from the back panel:

    Burn-in

    Your Primare will start to sound best after an initial burn-in of approximately 24 hours. 

    You will notice a further smaller improvement in sound quality for at least another 3 days’ playing.

    RS232 and trigger

    The RS232 input allows you to connect the I25 to a controller system. Use a twisted (null modem) cable. For more information contact Primare at info@primare.net or visit www.primare.net.

    The Trigger output allows the I25 to switch on other devices, such as a DD35.

    Using the I25 with a DD35

    Your I25 is an ideal companion to the Primare DD35 CD Transport. For best results link the two products together as follows using the two cables supplied with the I25:

    To connect the trigger cable

    The Trigger cable ensures that the DD35 switches on, or to standby, when you operate the  button on the front panel of the I25.

    • Connect the Trigger cable from the I25 TRIG OUT to the DD35 TRIG IN.

    The following error message on the front panel display indicates an error condition:
