The Model 200 is compact, yet powerful, delivering 200 watts at eight ohms
(20Hz–20KHz, >0.05%THD). Thanks to a unique circuit design and a heavy-
duty power supply with a horizontally oriented torroidal transformer, the Model
200 operates without a fan despite the deep power reserves.
Since the Model 200 will often be used in multiple unit systems, a variety of
power control options are provided. In addition to a standard power on/off
switch, the Model 200 may be operated from the external trigger control of
compatible products such as the Outlaw Model 950. Both in and out trigger
jacks are provided so that the control signal may be cascaded. For systems where
an external trigger is not available, the Model 200’s music sense circuitry is
available for automatic turn-on whenever an audio signal is present.
In order to fully enjoy the performance of your amplifier, please take a few

Jack of an additional Model 200. Note, however, that connecting more than
two Model 200s to a single source controller may overload the system and
is not recommended. If you wish to automatically turn on more than two
Model 200 units, we recommend the use of either the music sense circuitry
or an externally powered relay controller. Contact Outlaw Audio Customer
Service for more information on using the Model 200 in multiple unit
systems to avoid damage to your processor, receiver or controller.
A
The front panel LED indicator has three modes:
Amber: Indicates that the Model 200 is connected to an AC power source and
the rear-panel Main Power switch is turned on. When the indicator is amber,
the unit is in the Standby mode and is ready to turn on when a control signal
is received at the trigger jack or from the music sense circuitry.
Green: Indicates that the Model 200 is on and operational.
Red: Indicates that the Model 200 is in the Protect mode. If the LED is red,
you should turn the unit off and then check for the source of the condi-
tion that caused the overload. This may be a shorted speaker lead or other
similar condition. In the event of repeated appearance of the red LED you
may have a chronic system failure with either the Model 200 or another
component in your system. In this case disconnect the Model 200 from AC
power and the rest of your system and consult Outlaw Audio’s Customer
Service Department for assistance.
E
Trigger Mode Switch
This three-position switch determines the method by which the Model 200
will be placed in the active, or ON, position:
When the switch is in the far right position, under the word “ON,” the
unit will be turned on when the Main Power Switch is turned on.
When the switch is in the middle position, under the word “MUSIC,”
the unit will automatically turn on when an audio signal is present at
the Input Jacks. The unit will automatically turn off when the signal
is no longer present.
B
C
Input jack
Connect this jack to the output of the source used to feed the Model 200.
Note that if the Trigger Mode switch is turned to Music, the Model 200 will
turn on whenever an audio source is present at this jack.
When the switch is in the far left position, under the “12V” indication,
the unit will automatically turn on when a 6-volt to 35-volt signal is
applied to the Trigger Input Jack. The unit will turn off shortly after
that signal is removed.
Trigger Input Jack
Connect this jack to the trigger output jack of a compatible product such
as an Outlaw Audio Processor or Receiver that is capable of providing a
6-volt to 35-volt control signal at turn-on. When the Trigger Mode switch
is set to the 12 Volt position, the Model 200 will turn on when the control
signal is present.

3. If the source controller does not have a trigger jack, you may use the
music sense option to automatically turn on the Model 200, however, you
may also use the trigger switch if the source controller has a switched AC
Accessory outlet. If that is the configuration you wish to use, purchase a
small AC to DC power converter, as typically used to replace the batteries
in portable electronics devices. Select a model that is capable of delivering
6 to 35 volts DC, and make certain that one of the “tips” provided with
the unit is a 3.5mm mini-plug. Plug the transformer end of the converter

SAFETY NOTE: When making connections between any source compo-
nents such as AV Receiver, surround processors or multi-room controllers
and the Model 200, or when making any connections to speakers, be
certain that both the source device and the Model 200 are turned off. To
ensure that there will be no unwanted signal transients that can dam-
age equipment or speakers, it is always best to unplug all equipment
before making any connections. Modern electronic products often have
a “standby” mode that may be activated even though they product may
appear to be tuned off.
E
Turn the Trigger Mode Switch so that it is in the center position under
the word “Music.”
H
Make sure the AC Power Switch is turned on. Note that the front panel
LED will turn amber indicating that the unit is in the Standby mode,
awaiting a signal that will activate the operational mode.
In this configuration, the Model 200 will automatically turn on whenever it
is receiving an audio input signal. The unit will return to the standby mode a
few minutes after the audio signal stops.
Power Control Connections
Speaker Wire Connections
The Model 200 features a built-in remote turn on system that will automatically
turn on the amplifier in one of two ways. Depending on your specific applica-
tion, the unit may also be turned on manually using the Rear Panel AC Power
Switch, or automatically via sensing of either an input source or a low voltage
trigger signal. For manual operation, no special installation is required. For
automatic turn-on, follow the instructions below for the chosen method.
It is always best to connect the amplifier to your speakers using high quality
cable. The Model 200 is equipped with five-way binding post terminals that
accept bare wire, spade lugs or banana type plugs when they are permitted
by local safety agencies. Once you have located the proper speaker terminals
for the type of output configuration in use, connect your speakers using the
following guidelines.
Remote Turn-On From An External Device
Using The Low Voltage Trigger
To configure the Model 200 so that it turns on automatically in response to a
low voltage trigger signal, follow these steps:
To assure that the high quality signals produced by your Model 200 are car-
ried to your speakers without loss of clarity or resolution, we recommend that
you use high quality speaker cable. Many brands of cables are available, your
choice may be influenced by a number of factors; i.e.: the distance between
your speakers and the amplifier; the type of speakers you use; personal prefer-
ences; and other factors.
E
1. Place the Trigger Power Control Mode Switch in the far right position,
so that the switch is under the words “12 VOLT.”
Regardless of the brand or type of cable selected, we recommend using a cable
constructed of fine, multi-strand copper with a gauge of 14 or larger. Remember,
that in specifying cable, the lower the number, the thicker the cable.
2. To trigger the amplifier from a device such as a surround processor, AV
Receiver or multi-room controller with a built-in trigger jack, connect one

black thread, or some other positive indication. Follow the proper connection
instructions for your system with regard to which terminals are used so that
proper system polarity is maintained by connecting the positive (usually red)
terminal on the speaker to the positive terminal on the Model 200 and the
negative (almost always black) terminal on the speaker to the black negative
terminal on the Model 200. After the connections are made, twist the cap back
so that the connection is secured, but do not over tighten or use tools, as this
may break the delicate wire strands and decrease system performance.
Cables that are run inside walls should have the appropriate markings in

about cables inside walls should be referred to a qualified installer or a licensed
electrical contractor who is familiar with the NEC and/or the applicable local
building codes in your area.
If bare wire is used for the connections, strip approximately 1/2 inch to 3/4
inch (20mm) of insulation from the end of each wire and carefully twist the
strands of each conductor together. Be careful not to cut the individual strands
or twist them off; for optimal performance, all strands must be used.

Operation
If you are using spade lugs, connect them to the wire using the manufacturer’s
instructions, and then loosen the caps on the speaker terminals. Place lugs
between the plastic cap and the back of the terminal, as if it were a horseshoe
on the game’s post. Again, remember to observe proper polarity. Tighten with
your fingers to obtain a positive contact.
Operation
Operation of the Model 200 is simple. In normal use there are no controls to
adjust once the installation is complete.
After all connections have been made to the amplifier’s inputs and speaker
terminals have been made, and the AC power cord has been connected, the way
in which the unit turns on is determined by the setting for the Trigger Mode
When banana plugs are permitted, connections may be made by simply insert-
ing the jack affixed to your speaker wire into the hole provided on the rear of
the colored screw caps on the binding posts. Before using banana type jacks
make certain that the plastic screw caps are firmly tightened down by turning
them in a counter clockwise direction until they are snug against the chassis.
This will ensure that the maximum surface area of the plug is in contact with
the jack. Be certain to observe proper polarity.
E
Switch . Depending on the setting, as described on page 5, the amplifier
will turn on in one of these three ways:

Finally, run the cables to the speaker locations. Where possible, it is recom-
mended that the length of cable connecting any pair of speakers is identical

other. Do not coil any excess cable, as this may become an inductor that creates
frequency response variations in your system.

200 in the Standby Mode. The unit will automatically turn on whenever
an audio signal is present. The unit will return to the Standby mode a few
minutes after the audio signal is removed.
E
When the Trigger Mode Switch is set to the right, in the “12V” position,
NOTE: While most speaker manufacturers adhere to an industry conven-
tion of using black terminals for negative and red ones for positive, some
manufacturers may vary from this configuration. To ensure proper phase
connections, and optimal performance, consult the identification plate on
your speaker terminals, or the speaker’s manual to verify polarity. If you
do not know the polarity of your speaker, ask your dealer or installer of
advice before proceeding, or consult the speaker’s manufacturer.

should be turned ON to place the Model 200 in
the Standby Mode. The unit will automatically turn on when a low voltage
signal is present at the Trigger Jack

C
and return to the Standby Mode
As a general rule, it is always a good idea to turn on your amplifier LAST. This
avoids the possibility of any turn on pops or transients from other equipment
being amplified and sent to your speakers where they may cause damage.
Always start with a low volume level on your receiver, controller or preamp to
avoid damage to your speakers.
As a general rule, always avoid running input signal or speaker wire connections
in parallel with each other, or with AC power cords. This can result in undesired
hum or other interference that will greatly degrade signal performance.
Audio Signal Connections
SAFETY NOTE: To prevent unintended operation, remember to turn the
unit completely off when it will not be used for an extended period of time.
This is done by turning the AC Power Switch OFF and noting that the front
panel; LED indicator goes off. This will prevent the automatic turn on circuits
from accidentally turning the amplifier on during your absence.
Audio connection to the Model 200 is simple and straight-forward: Connect the
output of the source unit, which may be the preamp, multi-room or subwoofer
output of a surround processor, stereo preamp, AV receiver or “whole-house”
B
audio system controller to the Audio Input Jack
.
Note: There are no output level controls on the Model 200, as the level
is determined by the signal received from your source device. We recom-
mend that after installing a new amplifier such as the Model 200 that you
always re-calibrate your system to ensure that the system levels match
at all speaker locations.
When making connections with the “RCA” type plugs on interconnect cables,
make certain to gently, but firmly insert them into the jacks on the back of the
Model 200. Loose connections can cause intermittent sound and may dam-
age your speakers. The barrel assembly of some high quality RCA plugs may
be very tight, and it is important to ensure a proper connection between the
interconnect cable and the input jack.
AC Power Connection
The final step in the installation of the Model 200 is to connect the power cord.
J
First, connect the female end of the cord into the AC Power Receptacle on
the rear panel. Once the cord as been firmly connected to the Model 200, insert
the plug end into an AC power outlet.
Safety Notes
Due to the current draw of the Model 200, DO NOT connect the power cord
to the accessory outlet of an audio/video component.
Should the power cord become lost or damaged, be certain to replace it
with a replacement that meets or exceed the original specifications. Use of
power cords with insufficient capacity, such as those used with computers
or office equipment, may create a safety hazard.

cleaning agent. Do not use abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the finish
of the metal parts. Avoid spraying insecticide, waxes, polishing agents, or any
aerosol product near the unit.
After checking all speaker connections, turn the unit back on. If it continues
to turn off, check your speakers to verify that they are operating properly. If all
other potential sources of trouble check out properly, contact Outlaw Audio for
further assistance and information.
Fuse Replacement
The fuse on the Model 200’s rear panel protects the unit’s power supply from
problems and is not part of the audio circuit. If you suspect that a malfunction
of the unit is caused by a blown fuse, be certain to replace it with an identical
type. Should the fuse continue to blow, discontinue use of the Model 200 and
disconnect it from both AC Power and all source components. Contact Outlaw
Audio for service information.

wire where it is connected at the wall outlet. Turn your system back on, and
listen if the hum has disappeared. If removing the cable TV feed has eliminated
the hum, you will need to insert a Ground Loop Isolator before reconnecting
the cable TV feed, or contact your cable TV operator to see if they can better
isolate your cable feed.
A Few Words About Hum and Noise
Audible hum, or a discernable low frequency noise, is one of the most com-
mon problems in audio/video systems. This hum, which may be present even
when the volume is at a low level or when the power is off, is usually caused
by a problem known as a “ground loop”. A ground loop occurs when there
is a difference in ground voltages between two or more components that are
connected electrically. This, in turn, creates multiple current paths and causes
the low-level noise, or hum.
Suggestion #2:
Turn off all components in your system, and then disconnect the input cables
at the amplifier. Turn the amplifier back on, and see if the hum is still present.
If the hum disappears, the fault may be in the input cables used. Try replacing
them with cables that have better shielding, and make certain that the input
cables are not running on top of any AC power cords. Change the cables one
at a time to determine if one, or all cables is responsive. If the hum disappears
when the input cables are disconnected, but returns after the cables are changed
and the system re-connected, the problem may be caused by your processor,
receiver or preamplifier.
The growing sophistication of home theater systems, and the increased number
of components used to create these systems has dramatically increased the
potential for the possibility of ground loops. While it is natural to suspect that
the components in your system are the cause of the hum, in many cases the
cause may be due to other conditions. In particular, cable TV connections from
outside the house have become a major source of hum.
In most cases, one of the following suggestions should help you to solve a
hum problem in your system. Please try these steps in the sequence shown,
proceeding from one step to the next if the prior suggestion does not eliminate
the problem.
Suggestion #3:
Poor grounding of the electrical system in your home may also cause ground
loop problems, particularly when there are multiple components with three
prong, grounded, power cords. Try unplugging these components one at a
time, and see if one or all of them is causing the problem. The ultimate solu-
tion to this type of problem is to re-wire your house with an isolated, star-type
grounding configuration. We recognize, however, that this may be impracti-
cal and expensive. In some cases, the use of an approved AC Power Isolation
Transformer of sufficient capacity may solve this problem.
Potential Ground Loops in a Complex A/V System
Suggestion #1:
To determine if a cable TV connection is responsible for the hum, first turn all
components off. Disconnect the cable TV feed to your system at the first place
where it connects to your components. Alternatively, disconnect the cable TV

Warning: if you suspect that the grounding system in your home’s electrical
wiring is causing the hum problem, it is important that you do not make
any changes to the wiring yourself. Only a licensed electrician should
make any changes to household wiring, and they must be made in full
compliance with all local building, safety and electrical codes.

Faulty earth grounds may also cause hum in your home’s electrical system. In
the past, cold water pipes were often used for the earth ground, so it is important
to make sure that your ground connection is still valid and has not become
loose or corroded. The cold water pipe method may no longer be valid in some
locations due to requirements that the water meter be isolated from the water
mains with a length of PVC pipe, thus interrupting the ground circuit. The
safest, and most reliable, approach may be to provide your own ground. This
can be accomplished by having a licensed electrician drive at least five feet
of copper-jacketed steel grounding rod into the earth, and using that for your
grounding connection.

your audio system. The previous suggestion tips may help with this also. If not,
try isolating the ground in the projectors video signal cable with a base-band
