CONGRATULATIONS! Thank you for purchasing the Niles SI-2125, one of the most flexible and convenient amplifiers ever offered. Like all Niles products, the SI-2125 is built to the highest standards of quality control and reliability. With proper installation and operation, you’ll enjoy years of trouble-free use.
INTRODUCTION The SI-2125 is a member of the award-winning Niles Systems Integration Amplifier family. It is designed for home theaters and whole house audio systems requiring high power.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS Real World Power The SI-2125 delivers 125 watts per channel at 8 ohms, 200 watts per channel at 4 ohms and 300 watts bridged at 8 ohms.

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS Placement Place the SI-2125 on a flat level surface like a table or shelf. It should be placed upright so that its weight rests on the four attached feet. Placing the weight of the amplifier on the rear or front panel for even an instant will result in damage to the amplifier’s connectors and controls.
Turn-On Modes The SI-2125 draws more current than a preamplifier’s switched AC outlet can safely supply. Also, your preamplifier may “thump” at dangerous volumes if the amplifier is already on when the preamp turns on. It is usually best to turn the amplifier on only when it is needed.
Bridged Mode The SI-2125’s bridged mode switch allows you to create a more powerful amplifier by combining both channels into one (8 ohm minumum). In the bridged mode, connect the speakers to the left red positive terminal and the right red positive terminal.
Speaker selection systems allow each pair of speakers to be turned on and off from your equipment location (or even via remote control). INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS 8 Cable and Wire It will be easier .
AC 230V 50Hz Red “Power” LED confirms the amplifier is connected to a live AC power outlet and that the master power switch is on. Green“Active” LED lights when the amplifier circuitry has been turned on by the Turn-On circuits. Front panel “Master Power” switch turns off the entire amplifier, including the Turn-On circuitry.
Binding posts for speaker connections. Bridge mode switch IEC receptacle for AC power cord. FRONT AND REAR PANEL DETAILS 10 AC 230V 50Hz Level Adjustment screws enable you to preset the maximum system volume (or match levels with another amplifier).
INSTALLATION Setting the Turn- On Mode Switch The SI-2125 has three turn-on modes. Select which mode you desire by sliding the mode switch. See Installation Considerations on page 6 for more information about each of the turn-on modes.
12 INSTALLATION Speaker Wire Connections CAUTION! ALL SPEAKER WIRE CONNECTIONS MUST BE MADE WITH THE AMPLIFIER OFF. Bare Wire Unscrew the red or black plastic knob, insert the bare wire end into the opening, and then tighten the knob until the wire is securely clamped.
Line Level Audio Input CAUTION! THE AMPLIFIER MUST BE OFF WHENEVER YOU MAKE CHANGES TO THE INPUT CONNECTIONS. Cascade Audio Outputs The “Cascade Audio Outputs” enable you to connect another amplifier to your preamplifier output. The connectors are gold-plated RCA phono jacks.
14 INSTALLATION AC Power Plug STEP Plug the female IEC socket of the supp lie d AC cord in to the IEC receptacle on the rear of the amplifier. Plug the two-prong plug into 230V 50 Hz wall outlet. CAUTION! TYPICALLY THE PREAMP/ RECE IVE R’S SWI TCH ED OUTL ET IS NOT RATED FOR A POWER AMPLIFIER.
OPERATION Power Switch The front panel switch is a master or “vacation” power switch. No matter which turn-on mode you have selected, the master power switch will turn off all circuitry —including the sensing circuitry.
