Cambridge Audio 550A & 650A

Front panel connections
1. Standby/On
Switches the unit between Standby mode (indicated by dim power LED) and On (indicated by bright
power LED). Standby is an eco power mode where the power consumption is less than one watt. The
unit is designed so that it can be left safely in Standby mode when not in use.
2. Phones
Allows for the connection of headphones with a ¼" jack plug connector. Headphones with an
impedance of between 32 and 600ohms are recommended. When the headphones are connected,
the loudspeaker relay is released switching off the output to the loudspeakers (speakers A and B).
3. Infrared sensor
Receives IR commands from the supplied Azur remote control. A clear, unobstructed line of sight
between the remote control and the sensor is required.
4. Protection
LED flashes to indicate activation of CAP5 protection system. Refer to the CAP5 section of this
manual for more information.
5. Speaker LEDs
Indicator shows the speaker terminals that are selected. The speaker terminals selected are changed
with the remote control.
6. Direct
This control gives the audio signal a more direct path to the power amplifier stage of your amplifier,
bypassing the bass and treble control circuits for the purest possible sound quality.
7. Bass and Treble

These controls allow subtle adjustments to the tonal balance of the sound. In the central position
these controls have no effect. They only modify the sound through your loudspeakers and the Pre-Out
sockets, and do not affect the signals sent through the Tape Out connections.
With a well-produced CD and a good system, the tone controls are unnecessary and can be switched
out by the ‘Direct’ switch. If the musical recording is of poor quality or other factors are affecting the
sound quality, it may be necessary to adjust the tone controls to compensate.
8. Volume
Use to increase or decrease the level of the sound from the outputs of the amplifier. This control
affects the level of the loudspeaker output, the pre-amp output and the headphone output. It does not

affect the Tape Out connections. It is advisable to turn the Volume control fully anti-clockwise before
switching the amplifier on.
9. Balance
This control allows you to adjust the relative output levels of the left and right channels. In the central
position the output from each channel is equal. This control only modifies the sound through your
loudspeakers and the Pre-Out sockets – it does not affect the signals sent through the Tape Out
connections.
10. MP3 Input

This source input allows you to connect a portable audio device such as an MP3 player, plugged into
either the rear panel Phono/RCA input pair (labelled ‘MP3’) or the front panel 3.5mm stereo-jack input
(labelled ‘MP3 In’).
Press the MP3 button on the front panel to select the input, or insert a device into the front panel
socket which automatically selects the input and overrides the rear Phono/RCA sockets.
Note: Whilst plugging a device into the front panel automatically selects the MP3 input, any other
input can still be selected once this has been done. As a result you may, if desired, leave a device
permanently plugged into the front panel.
11. CD, Tuner/DAB, DVD, Aux

Push the appropriate input selection button to select the source component that you wish to listen to.
The signal selected is also fed to the Tape Out sockets so that it may be recorded. The input should
not be changed whilst recording (but the recorded signal can be checked using the tape input Tape
Monitor).
12. Tape Monitor

This control lets you listen to the output signal from a tape recorder or signal processor connected to
the amplifier's Tape In/Rec Out sockets. When Tape Monitor is selected, the source component
chosen by the input selection buttons continues to be routed to the Rec Out sockets for recording or
processing.


Rear panel connections
1. Power On/Off
Switches the unit on and off. This switch is a master on/off control that, when switched off, overrides
the Standby/On button on the front of the unit and that on the remote control.
2. ACԛpower socket
Once you have completed all connections to the amplifier, plug the AC power cable into an
appropriate mains socket and turn the unit on. Your amplifier is now ready for use.
3. Loudspeaker terminals
Two sets of loudspeaker terminals are available, A (main loudspeaker terminals, top row) and B
(secondary switchable loudspeaker terminals, bottom row). Connect the wires from your left channel
loudspeaker to the LEFT positive and negative terminals, and the wires from the right channel
loudspeaker to the RIGHT positive and negative terminals.
In each case, the red terminal is the positive output and the black terminal is the negative output.
Care should be taken to ensure no stray strands of wire are shorting speaker outputs together. Please
ensure that the loudspeaker terminals have been tightened adequately to provide a good electrical
connection. It is possible for the sound quality to be affected if the screw terminals are loose.
The use of A and B speakers affords you an easy and inexpensive way to create a simple multi-room
system.
Note: When using two pairs of speakers, use speakers with a nominal impedance of 8ohms.
4. IR (Infrared) Emitter In
Allows modulated IR commands from multi-room systems or IR repeater systems to be received by
the amplifier. Commands received here are not looped out of the Control Bus. Refer to the ‘Custom
Installation’ section for more information.
5. Control Bus
In Allows un-modulated commands from multi-room systems or other components to be
received by the unit.
Out Loop out for control bus commands to another unit.
6. Pre-Out
Connect these sockets to the inputs on an external power amplifier(s), such as Cambridge Audio’s
840W model, or an active subwoofer, etc.
7. Tape In
Connect to a tape deck or to the analogue output sockets on a MiniDisc, portable digital music player

or CD recorder using an interconnect cable from the recorder's Line Out sockets to the amplifier's
Tape In sockets.
The Tape Input circuit of the 550A/650A is a ‘monitor’ type, different from the other five inputs. For the
five normal inputs, the source selected for listening to will also be sent out of the Rec 1/Rec 2 outputs
for recording. The source currently being listened to and (optionally) recorded is then shown on the
front panel by a corresponding blue LED.
However, when the Tape Mon Input is selected the Tape Mon LED will also illuminate, indicating that
the Tape Monitor Input is now being listened to with a different source being sent out of the
Rec1/Rec2 outputs for recording. The recording source is shown by the first LED and can be changed
by pressing the other source buttons. To switch Tape Monitor off, simply press the Tape Mon button
again, toggling this function off.
This feature is most useful when using three-head analogue cassette decks which allow the signal
being recorded to be played back live off tape (via a third head) whilst it is simultaneously recorded. It
is then possible, by toggling the Tape Monitor input on and off, to compare directly in real time the
original and recorded signal so that adjustments to the recording parameters of the tape machine can
be made. (Consult the manual of your three-head analogue cassette deck for full details.)
8. Record Out 1/2

These two identical output sockets can be connected to a tape deck or to the analogue Record In
sockets on a MiniDisc or CD recorder.
9. Aux, DVD, Tuner/DAB, CD, MP3

These inputs are suitable for any 'line level' source equipment such as DVD players, DAB or FM/AM
tuners, CD players, MP3 players, etc.
Note: These inputs are for analogue audio signals only. They should not be connected to the digital
output of a CD player or any other digital device.
Connecting a turntable
If it is desired to connect a turntable without a built-in phono stage, an external phono stage such as
our 540P or 640P models should be used. Contact your Cambridge Audio dealer for more details.
Note: A very few turntables have built-in phono stages, in which case it is not necessary to use a
separate phono stage amplifier. If you’re unsure, please consult your turntable user manual.
Connections
When designing our amplifiers we include features that allow you to connect your system in various
ways. The inclusion of features such as Pre-Out and Speaker B connections mean that you can
flexibly configure your system depending on your requirements.
Basic connection
The diagram below shows the basic connection of your amplifier to a CD player and a pair of
loudspeakers.

Tape connection
The diagram below shows how to connect the amplifier to a tape recorder or other source with a
record and monitor connection. Please note that either of the tape loop outputs can be used (as they
are both the same signal in parallel).
Speaker Bԛconnections
The Speaker B connections on the back of the amplifier allow for a second set of speakers to be used
(i.e. speakers located in another room). The Speaker A/B button on the remote control allows the two
sets of speakers to be toggled on and off. Refer to the Remote Control section of this manual for more
information on the Speaker A/B operation.
Set either A or B, or both A and B may be selected for use.

Note: When using two pairs of speakers, use speakers with a nominal impedance of 8 ohms each.

Pre-Out connections
The Pre-Out sockets are for connecting to the input sockets of a power amplifier, such as Cambridge
Audio’s 840W model, or active subwoofer. The diagram below shows how to connect the amplifier to
an active subwoofer via the Line In inputs on the subwoofer.
