Introduction  
Owner’s Reference P-200 Preamplifier C-100 Control Amplifier  
Thank you  
Thank you for your purchase of either the Trio P-200 Preamplifier or the C-100 Control Amplifier.  
The P-200 Preamplifier is a stereo, remote controlled high-end preamplifier designed to provide great  
performance in a minimalist high-end system. Unlike an ordinary preamplifier, the P-200 is based  
on PS Audio’s exclusive Gain Cell technology that has no internal volume control or attenuation of  
the signal. Instead, Gain Cells adjust the actual gain of the preamplifiers internal amplification stage  
resulting in near perfect performance.  
The C-100 stereo Control Amplifier is a dual mono Control Amplifier, capable of driving nearly every  
loudspeaker load with ease and beauty. The Trio Control Amplifier is based on ICE power switching  
amplification for the output, and Gain Cell technology for the adjustable gain feature.  
Cool and efficient  
running  
The C-100 has two high efficiency digital amplification stages that allow them to run cool to the touch  
even while driving demanding loads and should offer years of trouble free performance of the highest  
standards.  
Power ratings for the C-100 are 100 watts rms into 8 Ohms, 200 watts rms into 4 Ohms at less than  
0.1% THD. For musical peaks, the Trio C-100 can produce up to 150 watts per channel into 8 Ohms  
and 300 watts per channel into 4 Ohms.  
Power ratings  
You should expect state of the art performance and sonics from any PS Audio product. The Trio  
series products represent high value in terms of performance within their rated power levels and will  
provide excellent results in either a two-channel or multi-channel environment.  
What you can  
expect

Getting Started  
Owner’s Reference P-200 Preamplifier C-100 Control Amplifier  
There are several ways to mount either the C-100 Control Amplifier or P-200 Preamplifier: on a rack  
shelf, or a stand alone shelf.  
Location  
Isolation  
We suggest placing either unit near the source equipment you are planning on connecting to its  
inputs, such as a CD player, turntable and phono preamplifier, D to A converter etc.  
Both units can benefit from aftermarket isolation devices such as cones, spikes and Sorbothane  
pads.  
Once you have chosen the location for the unit you can use the supplied AC power cord to connect it  
to the AC wall receptacle or you can use an aftermarket power cord and receptacle.  
We strongly recommend the use of a PS Audio xStream Power™ AC cable and a PS Power Port™  
AC receptacle to feed the unit. While the supplied power cable is adequate for the task it is not  
going to provide the best performance. Choosing any xStream Power cable will make a significant  
performance improvement over the stock power cable.  
Power Cables  
Conditioners  
We recommend the use of power conditioning equipment, such as a PS Audio Power Plant, Duet,  
Quintet, Soloist or any of the power conditioning equipment from PS. We do not recommend the  
use of simple AC filter power conditioners not made by PS Audio as most of these will ”bleach” the  
sound and rob the music or video soundtrack of life and dynamics. If you do not use PS Audio power  
conditioning equipment, you would be advised to plug the GCA Power amplifier directly into the AC  
wall receptacle first, then evaluate the sound with and without the power conditioning equipment you  
intend to use.

Quick Start Guide  
Owner’s Reference P-200 Preamplifier C-100 Control Amplifier  
Once your new Trio is unpacked,  
you’ll need to find a convenient  
place to set it.  
Once you have decided on the  
locationandchosentheappropriate  
power cables, you are ready to  
install the Trio.  
We would recommend that you  
power the entire system down  
before attempting to connect  
either the preamplifier or Control  
Amplifier.  
Power down first  
Rear switch  
Insert the Trio into the system.  
Make sure the rear mounted power  
switch is in the off position.  
Both the C-100 and P-200 have 3 single ended RCA type inputs. These are line level inputs and will  
accommodate any line level output such as a CD player, DVD player, D to A player, phono preamplifier  
output, etc. None of these inputs is designed to take the output of a turntable directly. Turntable  
outputs need a phono preamplifier to work into either of the Trio products. Should you require a  
turntable connection, PS manufacturers an excellent choice in phono preamplifiers, the GCPH.  
Connect the  
inputs  
Be sure to use a high quality  
well shielded and well regarded  
interconnect for this critical  
link. PS Audio makes an entire  
line of excellent choices for  
interconnects, perfectly matched  
to your equipment’s needs.  
Input impedance is 50K on each  
of the Trio inputs.  
The Trio P-200 Preamplifier has  
two outputs, an XLR balanced  
output as well as a single ended  
RCA output. Both outputs may  
be used at the same time to  
connect to a power amplifier or  
amplifiers if you are bi-amping.  
Bi-amp  
The C-100 Control amplifier has a line level output that can be used to feed another power amplifier  
like the Trio A-100 for bi-amping.

Quick Start Guide  
Owner’s Reference P-200 Preamplifier C-100 Control Amplifier  
Speaker cables are  
a
critical link between your  
loudspeakers and your new  
C-100 Control Amplifier.  
Pay close attention to  
the polarity on the rear  
Check for pproper  
polarity  
panel binding posts.  
It  
is critically important that  
you match plus and minus  
(red and black) of the C-  
100 Control Amplifier to  
the plus and minus of your  
speaker. Carefully observe  
the polarity. The plus or  
red terminal of the C-100  
Control Amplifier must  
eventually be tied to the  
plus or red terminal of your  
loudspeaker. The C-100  
Control Amplifier is a non-inverting amplifier design meaning it is in phase with the input signal.  
If you intend to connect a subwoofer to the C-100 outputs, be advised that generally there is no  
problem. In a few rare instances there may be a problem, which will show itself as problematic if the  
Control Amp’s protection comes on after hooking up the sub. REL subwoofers and some Sunfire  
subwoofers can be problematic. Please check with the factory or your dealer if you encounter these  
subwoofers or any problems.  
Be careful when  
connecting a  
subwoofer  
The binding posts, on the rear panel of the C-100 Control Amplifier will accept either spade or banana  
type connectors. To use a spade or forked connector, simply unscrew the binding post, place the  
tongs of the spade over the threaded binding post and tighten the outer barrel of the binding post. It  
is permissible to us a wrench to tighten the binding post down.  
Binding posts  
Connecting a  
banana style  
The banana style connectors should be inserted into the center hole on the rear of the binding post.  
Turn your source equipment back on. Make sure everything is powered up properly between the AC  
receptacle and your AV equipment.  
Next, turn the rear panel power switch on the Trio to on and power up. There is a normal 10 second  
delay for the Trio once powered up.  
Rear power  
switch  
The Trio’s come with a supplied remote control. The remote has more buttons and functions than  
are available on the Trio. This remote is a shared remote with the G Series of Control Amplifiers and  
Preamplifiers. The functions that will work are: power, volume, mute, input selects 1, 2 3.  
Using the remote

The Trio is best left powered on at all times. The current draw is negligible and keeping it powered on  
will make sure the internal AC capacitors stay working properly.  
Should the unit  
be on all the  
time?  
There is no harm in leaving  
the unit on at all times as  
the lifespan of the Trio will  
be unaffected by leaving it  
on.

inside  
the  
P-  
200. There are no user  
replaceable internal fuses  
inside the C-100. There  
is an internal fuse that  
should only be replaced  
by an authorized service  
center if needed. The  
components inside the  
Trio have lethal voltages  
when  
powered  
and  
even when un-powered.  
Capacitors inside the Trio  
can retain an electrical  
charge after the unit has been powered down. Do not attempt to get inside the unit for any reason  
unless instructed to do so by your dealer or an authorized service representative. Should the Trio  
cease to function, contact your dealer or PS Audio’s service center for help.  
Placement of the Trio is not critical. Placement with respect to other equipment can be important.  
In general, place the Trio close to the source equipment as possible. It is always preferable to have  
long speaker cables and short interconnects if there is a distance problem. Long interconnect cables  
will degrade the performance of most preamplifiers, surround processors or integrated amplifiers and  
receiver preamp outputs.  
Placement?  
Isolation?  
Isolation through the use of spikes, cones or Sorbothane feet is recommended for the Trio if space  
and budget allows. Isolation of any piece of high-end stereo and theater equipment is always  
recommended wherever practical.  
Yes, cables make a difference. It is important to use the best power cables, interconnects and  
speaker cables when operating the Trio.  
Do cables make a  
difference?  
There is only one power switch for the Trio and it is located on the rear of the chassis.

Troubleshooting  
Owner’s Reference P-200 Preamplifier C-100 Control Amplifier  
If no sound comes out of the Trio there are several areas to check. Either you are not getting an audio  
signal into the Trio, in the case of the P-200 you may not be properly connected to a power amplifier  
and, in the case of the C-100, you may not be properly connected to the loudspeakers so the audio  
can get out of the amplifier, or there is no power from the AC socket.  
No sound comes  
out of the Trio  
Check to make sure the Trio’s rear mounted AC switch is in the on position. For the P-200, first check  
to see if the connected power amplifier is operational. You can do this by removing the amplifier’s  
interconnect if it is an RCA type and while the amplifier is on, touch your finger to the RCA interconnect’s  
center pin and see if you hear a buzz through the speakers. If not, you have a problem with your  
amplifier. An alternate method would be to or plug the audio output of your CD player or DVD player  
directly into the power amplifier’s inputs. Be careful to choose a CD or DVD with relatively soft music  
because this will play very loudly if it is working. If you determine the power amplifier is working, shut  
off the power amplifier, reconnect the inputs of the amp to the P-200’s outputs and check the Trio’s  
inputs. Make sure the Trio’s gain control is up, you have selected the correct input, etc.  
Check the inputs  
on the P-200  
For the C-100, you should first determine if the Control power amplifier is working. To do this, one  
method is to turn the C-100 on, turn the gain control up about half way, then place your ear near  
the tweeter of your loudspeaker and listen for a very slight hiss. If you hear one, chances are good  
the amp is working fine, connected properly at the speakers and you have an input problem. If you  
suspect an input problem, replace the interconnects between the source and your C-100. At last  
resort, if you suspect an input problem, try another source.  
For the C-100  
Try another  
source  
If there is no sound and you are convinced the Trio has power and its front panel light is lit, contact  
your dealer, distributor or PS Audio for further assistance.  
If there is an excessive amount of hiss or noise from the loudspeaker with either Trio, it is probably  
not from the Trio as these products have extremely low self noise. To test, turn the amp your P-200  
is feeding off, or in the case of the C-100 Control Amp, turn it off. Remove the interconnect cables  
between the source and the Trio and then turn the amplifier back on. Listen once again to see if the  
noise has been diminished. If it has, chances are good you either need to replace your source or  
power amplifier with a quieter one or you may need to experiment with better shielded interconnect  
cables.  
If there is a lot  
of hiss in your  
speaker  
If you experience a hum through the speakers this can be caused by several things. The first is the  
source. If there is an excessive amount of buzz or noise from the loudspeaker, it may be caused by a  
ground loop, a light dimmer in the home, poor AC power, or any number of causes. The quickest way  
to determine where to start your search is to simply turn the preamp or Control amp off, disconnect  
the cables feeding its input, and see if the hum goes away when you turn it back on. If it does, it’s  
most likely a ground loop or buzz from a dimmer.  
If you have hum  
or buzz  
The easiest way to figure out where ground loop problems lie is by the process of elimination. You  
need to determine where the hum or buzz is coming from within your system.

Troubleshooting  
Owner’s Reference P-200 Preamplifier C-100 Control Amplifier  
If the hum/buzz goes away when you remove the inputs to the power amp or Control amp, your next  
step will be to reconnect the amp and move further down the chain. Disconnect all inputs to the C-100  
or the power amplifier you are using to connect to the outputs of the P-200 preamplifier. Once these  
are disconnected, turn the system on and again, listen for hum. Should the hum now appear, it is a  
problem with your power amp or Control amp.  
Finding a ground  
loop  
If you determine that there is still no hum present when the power amp or Control amp is connected  
with no inputs, then selectively begin plugging in your various inputs one at a time until the system is  
connected again. After each connection, check for hum until you discover the humming culprit.  
Process of  
elimination  
VCR’s,  
surround  
It could be the  
cable TV  
processors, and any  
device that is connected  
to a television cable or  
satellite dish can cause  
a loud buzz and should  
always be suspect.  
If, by the process of  
elimination  
described  
above, you determine  
it is a component like a  
VCR that is causing the  
hum/buzz to occur, and  
using a cheater plug or  
removing the ground  
pin on a PS xStream  
Power Cable doesn’t  
help matters, it may be  
necessary to isolate the  
cable connection (CATV)  
with an isolation transformer. This inexpensive device is available at most Wal Mart, Radio Shack or  
department store type outlets and is sometimes called a ‘matching transformer’. If you have problems  
finding one, call your local cable TV company for advice. The matching transformer will be placed  
between the cable TV cord and the VCR, TV or processor.  
Just remember, take the system down to its simplest level of connection. Find a way to hook the  
system up with as many pieces of the system missing or not connected. Keep it simple and get it  
to the point where the hum’s gone. Then start adding back components one at a time until the hum  
returns.  
Finding the problem is 9/10th of the work in finding a solution.  
If you have a problem connecting a subwoofer, please refer to the quick start guide in the front of  
this manual. We do not recommend connecting the high level inputs of a self power subwoofer to

Troubleshooting  
Owner’s Reference P-200 Preamplifier C-100 Control Amplifier  
Carver Sunfire type of subwoofers will not work properly when connected to the Trio’s outputs. This  
is because the C-100 is a balanced type of output with a DC voltage as referenced to ground.  
If the C-100 shuts off when playing music, there are several possibilities. If the music plays quite loudly  
but shuts off on the most explosive parts of the music of video soundtrack, then the C-100 Amplifier is  
probably underrated for the type of speaker you are using. See your dealer or call PS Audio for advice  
on going to the next size power amplifier.  
If the amp shuts  
down while  
playing music  
If the amplifier shuts down with very little volume, then check the speaker cable connections. The Trio  
can actually play music at low levels even into a near short on its outputs. Chances are good that you  
have a shorted connector (plus touching the minus) and you should simply check carefully on the back  
of the speaker and the back of the amplifier.
