Yes you control the volume using the PT-100.I’ve got the A-100 and PT-100 en route. How does one control the volume in this setup? I’d like to be able to use the remote that comes with the PT-100. Is that possible?
So you have two ways of running the amp - with and without the jumpers engaged. The default is without the jumpers engaged - this gives lower power. The other is with the jumpers engaged - higher power.
The idea is to use the Mini-x a100 as a power amp - i.e. the volume is controlled by the PT100.
First set the mini-x a-100 volume knob to the lowest.
The idea is that you turn the PT100 to say -10.00 or -20 volume. Then slowly bring the mini-x a-100 volume knob UP from mininmum to match till it's the loudest you would want to listen to it at. Then simply control the volume with the pt-100. If you engage the high power version, you will have to get the volume knob on the a-100 high enough that the channel imbalance at the lowest settings go away. It doesn't take much, but if you notice channel imbalance then lower the PT100 some more and turn the volume knob on the a-100 higher..
