WARNING: AMPLIFIER OUTPUT IS BALANCED.

 

Damage due to bypassing the fuse or due to replacement of a fuse of higher ratings will

 

not be covered under the warranty. To access the fuse, insert the slotted screwdriver,

 

pushing to compress the internal spring and turn counterclockwise to unlock the housing.

 

The spring will then eject the fuse and the housing.

I Left and Right Channel

These switches must both be rotated to the desired position to select the desired input,

Input Selector Switches

XLR Balanced, RCA Single-Ended Non-Inverting (+) or Inverting (-) for normal operation.

 

In the MUTE position, this control allows for BIASING CONTROL of the power tubes and

 

for safe cable swapping without shutting down the amplifier. When both switches are in

 

the M U T E position the front panel Power LED will turn R E D. Note: This position is purpose-

 

ly positioned at 12 o’clock so it can be easily determined when access is obscured. The

 

f ront panel Power LED will also turn red if this switch has selected an input which has no

 

connection. If any input selector switch is in MUTE and the other is not, the Power LED will

 

be a Red & Green colour at the same time.

J Left and Right Channel

These inputs accept an XLR balanced connection from the preamp’s left and right

balanced outputs.Connections should be made left channel to left channel right channel

 

to right. Note: The XLR pin configurations are as follows:

 

Pin#1- Ground

Pin#2- Positive

 

Pin#3- Negative

K Left and Right Channel

These inputs accept an input signal from a single-ended output of a preamp or source

that is 180°out of phase relative to the original signal and correction for this configura-

Inverting Inputs

tion is desired. The input on the Power 2 does invert the phase of the output signal, rela-

 

tive to the input signal. Connections should be made left channel to left channel right

 

channel to right.

L Left and Right Channel

These inputs accept an input signal from a single-ended output of a preamp or source

Single-Ended RCA

that is in ....absolute phase or are used if it is desired to maintain the phase of the signal

Non-Inverting Inputs

from the preamp. Simply explained, this input does not invert the phase of the output sig-

 

nal relative to its input. Connections should be made left channel to left channel right

 

channel to right.

M Left and Right Channel

This post is offered for use when a ground connection is required (i.e. when amplifier’s

function is being tested by a technician). It has no use for day-to-day audio related

 

operation.
