PARALLEL SYNCED GAIN CONNECTIONS/SETTINGS

Refer to figure 5 for wiring details.

1.Input Signal - Connect these RCA jacks as described in the Front Panel Connection section of this guide.

2.Slave/Master Switch

„Set the slave/master switch on the master amplifier to the MASTER position.

„Set the slave/master switch on the slave amplifier to the SLAVE position.

„Setting the slave/master switch on both amplifiers will auto- matically set the I/O RCA jack configuration according to each amplifier’s slave or master designa- tion.

NOTE:

One master amplifier can control up to three slave

 

amplifiers in this combination. Multiple identical

 

master/slave combinations can be added to any

 

given system.

3.Phase Switch - Set the phase switches of all synced amps to the same position (all at 0° or all at 180°).

4.In order to achieve safe, optimal perfor- mance, the LPF, Bass EQ, and Subsonic Filter controls on all synced amps must be set to the same position.

5.Signal Connection - Connect an RCA cable between the OUT RCA jack of the master amplifier and the SLAVE IN RCA jack of the slave amplifier as shown in the Figure 5.

6.Subwoofer Speaker Connection - In this amplifier combination each amplifiers must drive its own sepa- rate subwoofer(s). Connect the speaker terminals of each amplifier to any combination of one or more subwoofers that results in nominal impedance between one and four ohms. Make sure that each amplifier sees the same speaker impedance.

WARNING: The amplifier’s gain control is bypassed completely in SLAVE mode. Do NOT move the MASTER/SLAVE switch to SLAVE position when the amplifier is connected and playing. Do NOT connect any signal source to the amplifier in SLAVE mode that exceeds 200mV.
