UnitiQute 2 Integrated Amplifier

5 UnitiQute 2 Integrated Amplifier

UnitiQute 2 incorporates a high performance integrated preamplifier and power amplifier

based on established Naim design principles. The preamplifier is able to handle both

analogue and digital audio signals and, in addition to the UnitiQute 2 multi-format radio,

network interface and USB/iPod interface it has two external analogue and five external

digital inputs.

Using the UnitiQute 2 amplifier is simply a matter of selecting the desired input and setting

the listening volume level.

5.1 Selecting Inputs

Inputs can be selected by pressing the handset up (5)

and down (6) keys or one of the handset input selection

keys.

Note: The front panel input is automatically selected as

soon as a plug is inserted.

Pressing handset up (5) and down (6) keys scrolls through

and selects the inputs in the following order:

Analogue, Digital 1, Digital 2, Digital 3, Digital 4, FM (radio),

DAB (radio), iRadio, UPnP™ (Network UPnP™), USB/iPod,

Front (front panel analogue/digital).

Note: These are the default input names. They may be

altered within the UnitiQute 2 set up menus. See Section

4.3. Inputs can also be disabled so that they are hidden

from selection.

Pressing one of the handset input selection keys either

directly selects a single input or scrolls through a group

of inputs. For example, by default, pressing the CD input

selection key selects the Analogue input, while pressing the

radio input selection key scrolls through a group comprising

the FM, DAB and iRadio inputs.

Note: The default input selection key assignments may be

altered within the UnitiQute 2 set up menus. See Section

4.10.2.

Selecting an input will route that input’s audio signal to the

UnitiQute 2 outputs.

UnitiQute 2 will momentarily display input names as they

are selected before displaying input specific information;

iPod track or radio preset for example.

If an input is not operational (for example, no USB memory

stick is attached) when selected, UnitiQute 2 will display a

descriptive alert message.

5.2 Volume Control

UnitiQute 2 volume control is achieved by using the

handset vol– and vol+ keys or by continuously touching

the front panel Naim logo (the first touch increases volume,

the second touch decreases volume). The volume control

affects the speaker, headphone and preamplifier outputs.

Note: Switching off the Logo Mute function (see Section

4.8) will also switch off Logo volume control

The mute function silences the UnitiQute 2 speaker,

headphone, and preamplifier outputs and is engaged or

disengaged by touching the front panel logo or pressing

the handset mute key. Mute is indicated by the display

volume icon flashing.

5.3 Amplifier Display

In normal operation the UnitiQute 2 front panel display

primarily shows information relating to the selected input. It

will change temporarily to show amplifier adjustments such

as volume level and signal mute state as these are made.

5.4 Signal Outputs

In addition to its speaker outputs the UnitiQute 2 integrated

amplifier provides a preamplifier output, a digital output

and a headphone output.

The preamplifier output is designed to enable an upgrade

or additional power amplifier, or an active subwoofer to be

connected. The appropriate output configuration must be

selected through the Speakers setup menu. See Section

4.4.

The digital output enables UnitiQute 2 sources to be

connected to an external digital to analogue converter

or preamplifier with digital inputs. External analogue

sources (front Analogue and rear Analogue inputs) are not

available via the Digital Output. The digital output signal

format can be configured via the Digital Output setup

menu. See Section 4.7

Note: Although the UnitiQute 2 FM radio is fundamentally

an analogue source, the multi-mode radio module digitises

FM signals to make them available via the digital output.

The UnitiQute 2 headphone amplifier is able to drive

most commonly available headphones. Insertion of a

headphone plug will mute the UnitiQute 2 speaker and

preamplifier outputs.

5.5 Amplifier Fault Warnings

In the unlikely event that the UnitiQute 2 power amplifier is

overloaded, exceeds its normal operating temperature or

malfunctions, its output will mute and the display will show

a warning message.
