EUROPOWER EP1500/EP2500

+If the unit is damaged, please do NOT return it to BEHRINGER, but notify your dealer and the shipping company immediately. Otherwise, claims for damage or replacement may not be granted.

Please make sure the unit is provided with sufficient ventilation, and never place your EUROPOWER amp on top of other heat- emanating equipment or in the vicinity of a heater to avoid the risk of overheating.

The mains connection is made via the enclosed power cord and a standard IEC receptacle. It meets all international safety certification requirements.

+Please make sure that all units have a proper ground connection. For your own safety, never remove or disable the ground conductor from the unit or the AC power cord.

ATTENTION!

+We would like to bring your attention to the fact that extremely loud sound levels may damage your hearing as well as your loudspeakers. Please lower both GAIN controls leftwards before powering up the unit. Be sure to keep the volume at an appropriate level.

2. CONTROL ELEMENTS

Since control elements of both the EP1500 and the EP2500 are identical, we have used the EP1500 as the model represented in the illustrations to assure simplicity.

2.1 Front panel

Fig. 2.1: Front panel control elements

The main switch is used to power up the amp.

Ventilation openings are located at the front of the unit, so that hot air is prevented from being trapped inside the unit, thus causing faulty operation or even damage.

The CLIP LED lights up when the signal is distorted. Should distortion occur, reduce the input level, so that the CLIP LED stops lighting up.

The SIGNAL LED lights up as long as a signal is present at the input.

The GAIN control (channels 1 and 2) is used for setting up the input gain.

The POWER LED lights up as soon as the unit is powered up.

2.2 Rear panel

Fig. 2.2: Rear panel control elements

These are the balanced XLR inputs (channels 1 and 2).

These are the stereo 1/4" TRS inputs (channels 1 and 2). They can also be used with unbalanced plugs.

These are the MODE switches, used to alter the operating modes as well as to set the limiters and high-pass filters (see chapter 2.3).

The unit’s fan is located here. Fan speed adjusts automatically to assure trouble-free operation.

+To prevent faulty operation, please assure that the unit is kept at a distance from other appliances emanating heat.
