Pin 2 | signal hot |
Pin 3 | Signal cold |
Polarity
In accordance with international standards, T series amplifiers are supplied with Pin 2 hot (+), so a positive (+V) input gives a positive (+V) output from the positive (+) output terminals.
Input Impedance
Each amplifier channel has an input impedance of 10kΩ, seen between pins 2 & 3 of the XLR.
When used with the
Gain and Sensitivity Settings
Gain settings are changed internally by simple jumper links. Two rows of pins marked - GAIN A and GAIN B - are situated on the input PCB (PCB701). A jumper link sets the gain and the settings are as follows:
Link 1 & 2 | Gives 32dB gain |
Link 3 & 4 | Gives 26dB gain |
Link 2 & 3 | Gives approx 37.5dB gain |
NOTE: Factory setting is normally link 1 & 2 = 32dB gain.
Setting higher gain does not change the maximum available power but changes the level of signal input to achieve maximum power. In any case, provided that the input signal is less than 20dBu/7.7V, the built in limiter circuit will prevent distortion within the amplifier.
