Operating Manual - NE Two Channel Power Amplifiers Protection Ashly NE two channel power amplifiers come standard with several protection circuits: Over Current Protection - Is controlled in the output stage. Thermal Protection - When the internal temperature is below 40°C the fan runs at its slowest speed. Above 40°C the speed is increased until it reaches its maximum value. If the temperature exceeds 100°C, the input on that channel is reduced. If the temperature exceeds 110°C, the power suppl
