ON / OFF
A sound system should be switched on
sequentially. Switch on the self-powered units last
in your sound system (switch on the subwoofer
before the mid-high system). Switch on the sound
sources such as CD players or turntables, then the
mixer, then the processors, and finally the self-
powered unit. If you have several units, it is
recommended that you switch them on
sequentially one at a time.
Follow the inverse order when switching off,
turning self-powered units off before any other
element in the sound system.
Disconnect the device by removing the mains
connector from the mains socket. The mains
connector and mains socket must always be freely
accessible and never covered or blocked in any
way. The mains cable can be detached from the
device by disconnecting the Neutrik PowerCon
TRUE1 connector. Always disconnect the device
by removing the mains connector from the mains
socket before detaching the mains cable at the
Neutrik PowerCon TRUE1 connector. Power can
be daisy chained via the PowerCon TRUE1 output
connector (see details on product label).
IMPORTANT: Do not disconnect the unit
while in use.
Ensure that the device is disconnected from
the mains by observing that the ON LED is turned
off. Please note that the ON LED can stay on for
several seconds after the mains power has been
disconnected.
Normally it is enough just to let the unit cool
down after you have corrected the problem so that
the system functions properly again.
The amplifier is equipped with fan and heatsink
to maintain the correct operating temperature.
Keep grilles clean and dust-free.
Do not block or obstruct in any way the air
entrance or exit while the equipment is in use.
Air circulates from the bottom to the top of the
amplifier.
Overheating
This equipment does not normally overheat
during normal conditions of use. When overheating
occurs, the unit protects itself. You should then
find out why and if necessary contact an
authorised dealer for technical assistance.
Equalisation
The unit does not need extreme settings of
equalisation to produce quality sound. Avoid high
levels of gain on the equalisers. Gain values above
+3 dB on a console’s EQ are not recommended.

Low mains voltage
The values of voltage for de nominal ranges
are: From 90Vac to 125Vac for 115Vac range, or
from 180Vac to 250Vac for 230Vac range.
Therefore the current consumed by 115Vac
range is double that of 230Vac range, to achieve
the same acoustic power level.
For 230Vac range, the current consumed is
3A, with Pink Noise and giving 1/3 Nominal Power.
If mains voltage falls below the shutdown
voltage for the unit, it will stop playing. When
acceptable levels are regained, the unit will switch
back on automatically.
The unit accept, automatically, 230Vac or
115Vac ranges for working.
Overload indicator
This device has an indicator (SIGNAL/LIMIT
LED) that lights with red color when the signal is
excessive.
The indicator should not be lit continuously.
This distorts the signal (quickly fatiguing your ears)
and may damage the speakers. Therefore, it is
recommended that you never work with this LED
on; at most it should blink only occasionally.
