Power Amplifier - General
The DJM806 has an 800 watt stereo power amplifier. Each channel has an input sen- sitivity of +4dBv (1.4 volts RMS) for full power output and can deliver over 400 watts into a 4-ohm speaker load. The amplifier incorporates computer designed internal heatsinks and a variable-speed fan which automatically provides quiet operation con- sistent with cooling requirements. Cool air is drawn into the front of the mixer, and heated air is expelled along the bottom of the back. Even at maximum power, this arrangement results in quiet, dependable performance.
NOTE: Maintain clear air vents at the front and bottom rear of the mixer. They are essential for proper operation. Blocking the free flow of air through the mixer will result in system shutdown due to overheating. After the DJM806 cools down, operation will be restored. This should never happen if adequate ventilation is provided. Please keep the vents free pf obstructions.
Amp Clip LED’s
Located on the right side of the control panel below the Power LED, the Amp Clip indicators flash when one or both channels of the built-in power amp are running out of headroom. Reduce the Mains fader level if Amp Clip activity becomes constant. Clipping distortion can damage speakers.
Speaker Connections
Two ¼-inch jacks and one Speakon™ connector are in parallel with each amp-chan- nel output stage. This allows the use of speaker cables equipped with either type of connector. For full-power applications we recommend 14-gauge cables equipped with the Speakon™ connectors. This will reduce risk of resistance buildup. The Speakon™ system, developed in recent years by Neutrik in Switzerland, features block-style contacts capable of handling large amounts of power and the connectors lock down to prevent accidental kick-outs.
