2.1 Speaker Set-­‐Up and 4.1 Parallel Speaker Configuration

Speaker Configuration

The Rialto 600 has been designed to equalize and improve the performance of all speaker setups. The power of the amplifier combined with the audio performance and quality of AudioControl’s Wolfson-engineered, digital to analog converter (DAC) results in a dramatic improvement in the performance of all speaker set-ups throughout the house.
Shown on the right are just two of the many types of speaker configurations that the Rialto 600 can work with. Additional speaker set-ups can take advantage of the Rialto 600 amplifier’s stability at 4 Ohms powering four speakers. In addition, the Rialto 600 can be used as an incredible Mono amplifier with power ratings up to 400 Watts (see next page).

• 2.1 Speaker Set-up
  The standard set-up for a 2.1 speaker system with two 4 or 8 Ohm speakers plus a powered subwoofer.

• 4.1 Speaker Set Up-8 Ohm Speakers
  The standard set-up where four 8 Ohm speakers are parallel connected into two channels.

Dual Mono & Powered Subwoofer Speaker Set‐Up

Speaker Configuration

• The Rialto 600 has been designed to equalize and improve the performance of all speaker setups. The power of the amplifier combined with the audio performance and quality of AudioControl’s Wolfson-engineered, digital to analog converter (DAC) results in a dramatic improvement in the performance of all speaker set-ups throughout the house.
• This system shows two Rialto 600 amplifiers used in Bridged Mono mode to produce 400 Watts per speaker into 8 Ohms.
• A powered subwoofer is also shown. The Rialto 600 crossover can also be used to reduce the bass playing in the main speakers and let it play in the powered subwoofer instead.
• The left Rialto 600 is the Master unit where all connections and adjustments are made.

Stereo & Single Passive Subwoofer Speaker TV Set­‐Up

Speaker Configuration

• The Rialto 600 has been designed to equalize and improve the performance of all speaker setups. The power of the amplifier combined with the audio performance and quality of AudioControl’s Wolfson-engineered, digital to analog converter (DAC) results in a dramatic improvement in the performance of all speaker set-ups throughout the house.
• This system shows the first (Master) Rialto 600 being used in stereo mode, and the second Rialto 600 being used in Bridged mode to power a passive subwoofe.
• The Rialto 600 crossover can also be used to reduce the bass playing in the main speakers and let it play in the powered subwoofer instead.

DIP Switch Configuration

Note: Dip Switch ‘UP is OFF; Dip Switch ‘Down’ is ON

• BRIDGED- Internally routes left signal of the selected channel to speaker outputs, and right signal of the selected channel to ‘BRIDGED MONO OUT (*). The green ‘Bridged’ LED on the rear panel will light when the Bridged feature is engaged.
• 80Hz LP- Changes the sub output from a full ranged summed mono left/right signal to summed mono 80Hz 18 dB per octave low pass signal. Normally used if a subwoofer does not have a built-in crossover. The green low pass LED on the rear panel will light when this feature is engaged.
• 80Hz HP-Internally applies an 80Hz high pass signal to the left and right channels. Normally used when employing a separate subwoofer where the Rialto 600 plays just the 80Hz high-pass frequency range in the main speakers. Ideal for sound bars and subwoofers.
• SLEEP DEFEAT – Prevents the Rialto 600 from automatically going into standby mode and defeats signal sensing. Obeys IR and R$232 commands and the blue LED on the front panel will remain blue constantly indicating normal operation. For optimal energy savings, this switch should be left in the up (Off) position and the Rialto 600 will detect signal on any of the three inputs and turn on automatically. If no signal is present, the unit will go into standby after two minutes.
• HIGH GAIN-With the high gain switch engaged, the Rialto 600 provides an additional 10dB of gain for use with Analog input 3. This helps analog sources with very low signal output to operate optimally when playing back music including music with quiet passages. HIGH GAIN should not be ‘dipped’ to ‘ON’ when the Rialto 600 is being used as a ‘Link Amplifier.
• ANALOG 3 VOLUME DEFEAT This switch should be engaged when it is desirable to control the volume of channel 3 from an external source only, such as the volume control on an iPod, tablet etc. It should also be used on the right channel when the Rialto 600 is being set up in bridge mode.
• DIGITAL2 VOLUME DEFEAT- This switch should be engaged when it is desirable to control the volume of channel 2 from an external source only, such as the volume control on an iPod, tablet etc. It should also be used on the right channel when the Rialto 600 is being set up in bridge mode.
• DIGITAL 1 VOLUME DEFEAT This switch should be engaged when it is desirable to control the volume of channel 1 from an external source only, such as the volume control on an I tablet etc. It should also be used on the right channel when the Rialto 600 is being set up in bridge mode.

Adjusting AudioControl AccuBASSTM

AccuBASSM Bass Level Adjustment

AudioControl’s AccuBASST circuit is designed to help recover the bass that goes missing in compressed music files or when volume is increased and the bass frequencies roll away. AudioControl’s AccuBASST can be adjusted using the Rialto 600’s RTR-1 remote control to give your system great bass at all volume levels and add back in an incredible-sounding richness to your music.

1. Engage AccuBASS by pressing on the AccuBASS button on the RTR-1 remote control.
2. Start playing some dynamic bass-rich music and adjust the amount of AccuBASS using the left and right arrow symbols to adjust and maintain bass dynamics in your music.
3. You will hear bass and richness being restored to the music as you increase the level of AccuBASS as well as hearing and experiencing the richness of the audio steadily improve as bass frequencies are restored to the music.
4. Continue to fine-tune the AccuBASST level on your Rialto 600 to adjust to your personal preferences.
5. You’re done! You will have smooth, seamless bass and richness to your music and you can even adjust the AccuBass level to give a little (or a lot!) of extra boost to the bass if you like more bass in your music. It’s your music your way and the way the artist intended it to be heard!

Troubleshooting & Service

No Sound

• Check the unit is plugged in and power LED is Blue. When the LED is dim red, the unit is in standby and it is bright red when it is in protection.
• Check all cables are securely connected.
• Check the source unit is on and playing.
• Check the speaker connections are secure.
• Check the correct source input has been selected (LED).
• Check that the ‘Headphone’ LED is off.

In Protection
The amplifier in the Rialto 600 will protect itself if it experiences an unusually large power surge, overheats or experiences a short. This is a circuit that protects the Rialto 600 and speakers. Turn down the volume and the Rialto 600 will normally resume playing after a short period of time. A flashing red LED on the front of the unit indicates that the Rialto 600 is operating at its ‘Current Limit’ and in danger of going into protection. In this situation you may have too many speakers attached, you are driving the amplifier too hard or speaker impedance is below 4 Ohms and you may need to reduce the load.

Signal Sensing

• If the unit does not sense an input signal, it will switch to standby mode after approximately 2 minutes of silence. It will turn back on again as soon as an input signal is detected.
• During quiet passages, or lengthy silent spaces in music or a TV program, the Rialto 600 may believe that the audio signal has stopped and may go into standby mode.

Warranty – The Good Small Print!

Our Warranty
People are confused by warranties! Lots of fine print. Months of waiting around. Well, fear no more AudioControl is here. This warranty is designed to make you rave about AudioControl. It’s a warranty that looks out for our customers, plus helps you resist the temptation to have your friend, “who is good with electronics”, try to repair your AudioControl product. So go ahead, read this warranty, then register the information at www.audiocontrol.com /product-registration.
“Conditional” doesn’t mean anything ominous. The Federal Trade Commission tells all manufacturers to use the term to indicate that certain conditions have to be met before they’ll honor the warranty. If you meet all of these conditions, we will warrant all materials and workmanship on the Rialto 600 for five (5) years from the date you bought it, and we will fix or replace it, at our option, during that time.

Here are the conditional conditions:

1. You need to register your purchase of the Rialto 600 with us by going to the AudioControl website www.audiocontrol.com and then go to the warranty registration page and follow the directions. Optionally, go to www.audiocontrol.com/product-registration.
2. You must keep your sales receipt for proof of purchase showing when and from whom the unit was purchased. We’re not the only ones who require this, so it’s a good habit to get into with any major purchase.
3. The Rialto 600 must have originally been purchased from an authorized AudioControl dealer. You do not have to be the original owner, but you do need a copy of the original sales slip.
4. You cannot let anybody who isn’t: (A) the AudioControl factory; or (B) somebody authorized in writing by AudioControl service the Rialto 600. If anyone other than (A), or (B) messes with the Rialto 600, that voids your warranty.
5. The warranty is also void if the serial number is altered or removed, or if The Rialto 600 has been used improperly. Now that sounds like a big loophole, but here is all we mean by it: Unwarranted abuse is: (A) physical damage (don’t use the Rialto 600 to level your dining room table); (B) improper connections (120 volts into the RCA jacks can fry the poor thing); (C) sadistic things!

This is the best product we know how to build, but if you strap it to the front bumper of your Range Rover, something might break. Assuming you conform to 1 through 5, and it really isn’t all that hard to do, we get the option of fixing your old unit or replacing it with a new one!

The Legalese Section!
This is the only warranty given by AudioControl. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have rights that vary from state to state. Promises of how well the Rialto 600 will work are not implied by this warranty. Other than what we’ve said we’ll do in this warranty, we have no obligation, express or implied.
We make no warranty of merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose. Also neither we nor anyone else who has been involved in the development or manufacture of the unit will have any liability of any incidental, consequential, special or punitive damages, including but not limited to any lost profits or damage to other parts of your system by hooking up to the unit (whether the claim is one for breach of warranty, negligence of other torts, or any other kind of claim). Some states do not allow limitations of consequential damages. Failure to register your product negates any service claims. The warranty included with the unit shall supersede this plain-text version if there is any inconsistency between the two.
