12. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacture, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over. 13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time. 14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has

SERIES PROFESSIONAL POWER AMPLIFIER Thanks for choose our series amplifier. The amplifier features a two-way crossover and sub-sonic (low-cut) filter for each channel. Crossover frequencies are fixed at 150 Hz, allowing subwoofers to be driven at extremely high sound pressure levels, and the filters cut at 40 Hz to prevent low-end rumble. Using proven technology gained through years of amplifier design, this unit takes advantage of rugged TO-3P output devices mounted on massive alumin

FRONT PANEL FEATURES (1) INPUT GAIN (dB) These controls are used to adjust the input gain of each channel. They determine how loud each channel of the power amplifier will sound for a given input signal level. Maximum input gain is achieved at the fully clockwise setting, and this setting yields maximum mixer/system headroom. A setting of less than fully clockwise will yield lower system noise at the expense of mixer/system headroom. Turning the control fully counterclockwise is the off sett

BACK PANEL FEATURES (7) IEC MAINS CONNECTOR This is a standard IEC power connector. An AC mains cord having the appropriate AC plug and ratings for the intended operating voltage is included in the carton. U.S. DOMESTIC AC MAINS CORD The mains cord supplied with the unit is a heavy-duty, 3-conductor type with a conventional 120 VAC plug with ground pin. It should be connected to an independent circuit capable of continuously supporting at least 15 amps. This is particularl

(9) SPEAKON OUTPUTS The amplifiers utilize three 4-conductor Speakon connectors, one for each channel and one for BRIDGE mode. Please refer to the BRIDGE MODE section of this manual before attempting to use this mode. For each channel Speakon, the same impedance rules apply as with the binding posts. Internally, all the Speakons are wired in what is called the “high current” mode with pins 1+ and 2+ in parallel, and pins 1- and 2- in parallel. For the CHANNEL A and CHANNEL B Speakons, the resp

(14) LOW CUT SWITCH This switch is used to activate the LOW CUT filter for the corresponding channel. It is again a push-push type switch, requiring a small "tool" to activate. The IN position routes the input signals through the 40 Hz LOW CUT filter, while the OUT position bypasses the filter. This filter will cut extremely low frequencies, protecting speakers from the possibility of over-excursion. The filter low-frequency roll off is 12 dB per octave. The LOW CUT filter for each channel wi

levels occur Then, as temperatures in the amplifier heat sinks increase, the automatic thermal-sensing circuitry will cause high-speed operation to occur. Depending upon signal conditions and amp loading, high-speed fan operation may continue or the fan may cycle continuously between high and low. This situation is quite normal. If cooling is inadequate, however, the amplifier thermal-sensing system may cause temporary shut down of the unit, indicated by the LEDs on both channels going dark.
