Safety instructions
• Please check the packing for any kind of damage upon
reception of the goods. If the packing is damaged, please
contact your dealer before opening it.
• !!!!DANGER!!!! Exposure to high sound pressure levels
may cause permanent hearing loss. Hearing loss induced by
exposure to high sound pressure levels will vary from individual
to individual, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing
when exposed for a sufficient amount of time. Therefore, it is
recommended that all persons exposed to equipment capable
of producing high sound pressure levels, such as this amplifier,
wear sufficient ear protection while installing or operating this
unit.
• Read all documentation before operating your equipment.
• Keep all documentation for future reference.
• Keep the carton and packing material, even if the equipment
has arrived in good condition.
• Should you ever need to send the unit back, please only use the
original factory packing.
• Do not spill water or other liquids on or into the unit.
• Make sure power outlets are conform to the power
requirements listed on the back of the unit.
• Do not use the unit if the electrical power cord is damaged.
• Always operate the unit with the AC ground wire connected to
the electrical system ground.

• Turn the level controls on the amplifiers all the way down
during power-up to prevent speaker damage if there are high
signal levels at the inputs.
• Do not connect the inputs / outputs of amplifiers or consoles
to any other voltage source, such as batteries, mains sources or
power supplies, regardless of whether the amplifier or console
is turned ON or OFF.
• Power down and disconnect units from mains voltage before
making connections.
• Do not use the unit near stoves, heat registers, radiators, or
other heat producing devices.
• Do not operate equipment on a surface or in an environment
which may distort the normal flow of air around the unit. If the
unit is used in an extremely dusty or smoky environment, the
unit should regularly be “blown free” of dust.
• Do not remove the cover. Removing the cover will expose you
to potentially dangerous voltages.
• Do not drive the inputs with a signal level higher than that
which is required to drive equipment to full output.
• Do not run the output of any amplifier back into another input.
• In case of malfunction, this device should be serviced by
qualified service personnel only.

Introduction
Congratulations on your 20th Anniversary Limited Edition Amplifier
purchase. We have done the best we can to assure you pristine
audio quality at the best possible price. By combining analog
amplifier technologies with state of the art 24 bits/192 kHz digital
to analog converters, we have created a stylish high fidelity music
control center in a slim package.
A few headlines: CS8416 digital audio interface receiver and
AD1955 multibit delta sigma decoder chips, OPA2134 operational
amplifiers, CS3310 volume control chip… All high quality
components usually found in high-end gear from exclusive
manufacturers.
With 3 analog input pairs, a high-end phono preamp for MM or
MC pick-up elements and 4 digital inputs, VINCI 2125 will be your
reference amplifier for many years to come.

Operation
1. Power switch: push the switch to power the unit on or off.
2. Infrared control receiver: do not cover this area.
3. VFD display: shows the selected input (e.g. “CD”) and actual
volume setting (e.g. “-12dB”).
4. Volume & Menu knob: in normal mode, turn to the right to
increase the volume, turn to the left to decrease. Push briefly to
switch to the next input: CD, DVD, AUX, PHONO, CO1, CO2,
CO3, OPT. The volume range is from -30dB to +41dB. The
amplifier will memorize the last volume setting if the volume
is lower than +20dB. If the last volume setting is above +20dB
before power off, the amplifier will be set automatically to +20
dB at next power on. If the last setting is below +20dB, the
amplifier will be set to the last known volume level.

Error message on the display: if “PROTECT” appears on the display,
the amplifier will mute the outputs and no sound will be heard. This
can have following reasons:
• The load impedance is lower than 4 ohms, resulting in excessive
power requirements.
• There is a short circuit at the output: the speaker line or the
speaker itself is short circuited.
• There is a foreign voltage present on the speaker line(s).
• The amplifier is overheated.
Power off the amplifier, remove all speaker wires and inputs and
remove the error condition. If the amplifier is overheated, allow it to
cool down first.
If the error persists, consult your dealer for further assistance.
