Input Section
The M600/1’s input section allows you to send signal to the amplifier section through the use of two
You may run a stereo or a mono signal into the inputs of the amplifier. The amplifier’s input section automatically sums stereo signals to mono for the internal amplifier section. The amplifier will operate with only one input connection (left or right), but will require an increase in input sensitivity to overcome the loss of signal. If a mono input signal is to be run, we recommend that you use a
Input Voltage Range:
The M600/1’s input section is designed to accept signal voltages from 100mV – 4V. This will accommodate all preamp level signals and many speaker level signals.
To use
If you find that the output cannot be reduced sufficiently with a direct speaker level signal applied to the amplifier, you may use a “line output converter” or voltage divider to reduce the signal level.
Input Sensitivity Controls
The control labeled “Input Sens.” can be used to match the source unit’s output voltage to the input stage the M600/1 for maximum clean output. Rotating the control clockwise will result in higher sensitivity (louder for a given input voltage). Rotating the control
To properly set the amplifier for maximum clean output, please refer to Appendix A (page 12) in this manual. After using this procedure, you can then adjust the “Input Sens.” levels downward if this is required to achieve the desired system balance.
Do not increase any “Input Sens.” setting for any channel(s) of any amplifier in the system beyond the maximum level established during the procedure outlined in Appendix A (page 12). Doing so will result in audible distortion and possible speaker damage.
