Adjusting Power Meter Modes

The Evolution One amplifier uses microprocessors to monitor RMS output voltage

and current signals. This information is output to a custom front panel power

meter (6) (7), which displays an accurate power measurement for the selected

meter range on the power meter scale (6). The power meter has 4 modes of opera-

tion accessed by the meter range button (12):

50 WATT

and

OFF.

There are two ways to cycles between the operational modes:

Press the meter range button, located underneath the bottom right edge of the

amplifier chassis front panel or,

Press the select key (

SEL

) on the Evolution Two preamplifier, on another Krell pream-

plifier, or on the Universal Krell Touch Screen Remote.

Power Meter Range and Power Meter Wand Action

The power meter (6) (7) enables you to monitor the power output of the Evolution

One amplifier. The 500 Watt scale is the factory default. The 50 Watt scale range is

the most sensitive, and displays the smallest changes in power output, with the

greatest physical movement of the power meter wand (7). Conversely, the 5000

Watt scale is the least sensitive, and displays the largest changes in power output,

with the smallest physical movement of the power meter wand.
