Operation Modes Stereo Operation For stereo (dual channel) operation, turn the amplifier OFF and set the mode select switches on the back panel to the out (extended) position. In this mode, both channels operate independently of each other, with their input attenuators controlling their respective levels. Thus, a signal at channel A’s input produces an amplified signal at channel A’s output, while a signal at channel B’s input produces an amplified signal at channel B’s output. Bridged Mono O

Protection Features The Peavey CS Series incorporates several circuits to protect the amplifier and speakers under virtually any situation. Peavey has made the amplifiers as foolproof as possible by making them immune to short and open circuits, mismatched loads, ™ DC voltage and overheating. If a channel goes into the DDT gain reduction mode, the DDT LED illuminates. The clipping percentage or output power is instantly reduced. When a problem occurs that causes a channel to go into a protect

Speaker Protection All loudspeakers have electrical, thermal and physical limits that must be observed to prevent damage or failure. Excessive power, low frequencies applied to high frequency drivers, severely clipped waveforms and DC voltage can all be fatal to cone ® and compression drivers. Peavey CS Series amplifiers automatically protect speakers from DC voltages and subsonic signals. If using an electronic crossover, be extremely careful that the low and mid bands are connected to the c

Betriebsmodi Stereobetrieb Für den Stereobetrieb (mit zwei Kanälen) schalten Sie den Verstärker aus und stellen die Moduswahlschalter auf der Rückseite auf die ausgerastete (herausgezogene) Position. In diesem Modus arbeiten beide Kanäle unabhängig voneinander, wobei ihre jeweiligen Pegel über die Eingangsdämpfer geregelt werden. Ein Signal am Eingang von Kanal A erzeugt somit ein verstärktes Signal am Ausgang von Kanal A, während ein Signal am Eingang von Kanal B ein verstärktes Signal am A
