1. INTRODUCTION

The LTO DPA900/1500 40 Bit DSP Stereo Amplifier is a high power, low profile, professional Power Amplifier

with advanced features and great reliability. In fact, the amplifier functions far beyond a traditional power amplifier,

it is also a versatile effect processor. You can set the input and output audio configuration through recalling one of the presets included in the internal memory or PC editor software.

The amplifier delivers tremendous power in only two rack spaces, providing high performance under the most demanding conditions. It contains two independent channels, with separate AC transformer secondaries, power supplies and protection system. All protection systems, except the main AC one, are self resetting upon removal of fault, and the remaining channels shall continue to operate. Each channel has independent protective circuitry against open circuit, short circuit, mismatched loads and over temperature.

Thanks to the use of selected and expensive components, the performance of DPA900/1500 is worth much more

than its price.

1.Power Switch

Turn the unit power ON or OFF.

2.Clip LED

When the signal distortion reaches or surpasses 0.5%, the LED lights up. This means the output level of signal source is too high and it is time to reduce input level until clip LED turns off.

3.Output Limiter LED

While the unit is limiting the output signal, the LED lights up.

4.Operating and Protection LED

In normal operation, the LED is yellow, if the LED is off, it means the unit is in heat protection, no signal output at the time and over-heat inside the unit (the surface temperature of power transistor is over 100 ), the temperature must be lowered through better ventilation and decrease the signal level etc. After the temperature has dro- pped, the protection stops and meanwhile the LED turns off with the unit recover normal work.

5.Power LED

This LED lights up when the unit is powered.
