•Do not operate the Integrated Amplifier in damp
environment or allow liquids to enter the unit.
•Do not attempt to bypass the mains fuse or replace
the fuse with one of a different specification.
•Do not place the Integrated Amplifier in a position
which restricts cooling airflow around its case.
•Do not use abrasive or solvent based cleaning fluids
on the Integrated Amplifier’s case.
Failure to observe these precautionary measures may
void your warranty.

The Exposure Integrated Amplifier XXXV is fitted
with two sets of 4mm loudspeaker connection
output sockets for bi-wired connection of
loudspeakers. Another pair of speaker wires is
required for this operation for each
loudspeaker.
1. Ensure that the links at the speaker terminals
between the high frequency and the low
frequency are removed on both loudspeakers.
2. Follow the diagram below for connecting a
pair of loudspeakers in bi-wiring mode.
Although the Exposure Integrated Amplifier XXXV is able to drive almost any loudspeaker system, the best results will
most likely be achieved with speakers rated at 8 Ohms. While the Exposure Integrated Amplifier XXXV is compatible
with most types of loudspeaker cables, the type of cables used can influence the subjective performance of your system.
Please ask your Exposure dealer for advice on bi-amping, loudspeaker cable compatibility and how to get the best
from your Exposure Integrated Amplifier XXXV.
Note: Exposure Integrated Amplifier XXXV is internally protected against damage from short circuits. However, no such protection is
infallible, and damage may occur if positive and negative speaker cables are inadvertently connected together.
7
Fit the three M3 x 6mm bolts
that are supplied with the phono
module.
Observe the position of the
plug on the phono module and
carefully plug it in, ensuring that
all of the pins are inserted
correctly into their connectors.
6
Installation of a MC or MM Phono Module
This is best carried out by your dealer. However, if you wish to attempt installation yourself:
Slide the cover back about 2 cm
until it is free to move upwards
to reveal the main circuit board.
42
Remove the mains lead from
the wall and the IEC socket.
Switch off the unit.
Off
1 3
Remove the four cover screws.
Replace the cover and screws.
85
Remove the small jumper board
that is fitted on the right hand
side at the back.
Bi-wiring
Bi-amping of suitable loudspeakers using an
Integrated XXXV and a Dual Mono Power
Amplifier XXVIII provides a useful gain in
subjective performance. The Integrated
Amplifier is used to drive the treble units and
the Power Amplifier is used to drive the bass
units through the loudspeakers split crossover
with the joining links removed.
1. Check your loudspeaker user manual for the
wiring connections.
2. Follow diagram below for connecting a pair
of loudspeakers in bi-amping mode.
