MOON i 5.3 Integrated Amplifier

Front Panel Controls

Figure 1: MOON i 5.3 Front panel

The front panel will look similar to Figure 1 (above). The large display window indicates the relative gain setting (ranging

from ‘0’ through ‘50’) for both the left and right channels. As well, whenever you change the selected input source, it’s

number will appear in the window for 3 seconds before reverting back to the gain setting. Immediately to the right of the

display window is a button labeled “Display” which allows you to turn the digital display on and off. The sonic performance of

the MOON i

5.3 integrated amplifier may improve slightly when the display is turned off simply because the power supply has

one less task to perform.

The “Standby/On” button disengages the input section from the rest of the i 5.3’s circuitry and turns off the digital display.

However, when in “Standby” mode all audio circuitry remains powered up to help maintain optimal performance. When

switching back from “Standby” to the “on” mode, both the ‘input’ and gain level settings will be memorized from the previous

listening session. The blue pilot LED will not be illuminated when the i

5.3 is in “Stand by” mode.

The “Input +” and “Input -” buttons allow you to choose which input source you wish to listen to. The MOON i 5.3 integrated

amplifier has five (5) inputs labeled CD, A1, A2, A3, and A4. Assuming that you’re currently listening to a source component

connected to the CD input, pressing the “Input +” selector button allows you to sequentially scroll forward through each of

the possible inputs in the following order: CD, A1, A2, A3 and A4. The “Input -” button allows you to sequentially scroll

backwards through each of the possible inputs in the following order; A4, A3, A2, A1 and CD.

The A4 input can be configured as a ‘pass-through’ which bypasses the i

5.3’s gain control section, allowing you to control the

gain setting via the connected source component’s own volume control – a home theater processor for example. In ‘pass-

through’ mode, adjusting the volume on the i

5.3 will have no effect whatsoever when the A4 input is selected. To put the

A4 input into ‘pass-through’ mode, simply press and hold down the “Mute” button for approximately 5 seconds; you don’t

have to be on the A4 setting to do this. To reconfigure the A4 input to function like the four (4) other inputs, repeat the

aforementioned procedure. As well, powering down the i

5.3 via the rear panel rocker switch will reset the the A4 to the

factory default ‘normal’ mode.

Holding down either the “Input +” or “Input -“ button will allow only a single change of the selected input. You must press

the button again to select the next or previous input.

The “Mute” button reduces the current volume to “0”. Pressing the “Mute” button a second time will reinstate the volume

back to its previous level.
