User’s Manual
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing a DXi series amplifier for your application.
Please spend a little time reading through this manual, so that you obtain the best possible
performance from the unit and become familiar with its operating requirements.
All DAS Audio Group products are carefully designed and engineered for cutting-edge performance
and world-class reliability. If you would like further information about this or any other DAS Audio
product, please contact us.
We wish you many years of service from this amplifier and look forward to hearing from you in the
near future.
The DXi amplifier series has been designed to combine incredible audio power and performance with
ultra-flexible connectivity for both remote control and audio. Exemplary audio processing is assured
through the use of a DSP platform, and power amplifier capabilities are taken care of with high efficiency
output stages and a generous power supply.
All units named with an “i” include a DSP in the amplifier.
DX-100I
and
DX-80I
include a 4 in 8 out
DSP platform.
Accepting analogue, AES3 digital and optional Dante networked audio, the DXi amplifiers can
connect to any source and make it available over the network, as well as processing four additional
channels with local analogue outputs to connect to DX amplifiers. These auxiliary processed outputs
can also be fed onto the network, and used by DX amplifiers that have Dante cards fitted, or by any
other Dante enabled device.
Connectivity for remote control is covered by USB, Ethernet and RS485, with relay of either USB or
Ethernet control via RS485 to work with legacy products. Configuration of the amplifier's processing is
through the industry standard DASnet application, with tuning and monitoring of a network of DXi
amplifiers.
With a range of power levels available in the DX Series, the amplifiers can be networked to a single DXi
model, creating a powerful, efficient system that's easy to expand and adapt for use in live, install and
everything in between.
INSTALLATION: ELECTRICAL CONSIDERATIONS
The amplifier has been manufactured to comply with your local power supply requirements, but before
connecting the unit to the supply, ensure that the voltage (printed on the rear panel) is correct.
The amplifier is fitted with either a 100/120V or 220/240V tapped transformer according to customer
requirements.
Make sure power outlets conform to the power requirements listed on the back of the unit. Damage
caused by connecting to improper AC voltage is not covered by the warranty.
Safety Warning
Apparatus with CLASS I construction shall be connected to a MAINS socket outlet with a protective
earthing connection.
Where a MAINS plug or appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, it should remain readily
operable.
Where the amplifier is mounted in a rack and permanently connected to the mains, then the rack should
be installed with a readily accessible connector or an ALL POLE circuit breaker with 3mm breaking
distances.
This unit is fitted with a 3-wire power connector. For safety reasons, THE EARTH LEAD SHOULD NOT
BE DISCONNECTED IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. If ground loops are encountered consult the section on Line
Inputs and Outputs on page 11.
WHERE A FIXED MAINS LEAD IS FITTED, THE WIRING COLOURS ARE:

TO PREVENT THE LIKELIHOOD OF SHOCK OR FIRE HAZARD, DO NOT EXPOSE THE UNIT TO RAIN
OR MOISTURE. DO NOT PLACE OBJECTS CONTAINING LIQUID ON TOP OF THE APPARATUS.
TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK DO NOT REMOVE COVERS. REFER ALL SERVICING TO QUALIFIED
PERSONNEL.
DO NOT USE THE UNIT OF THE ELECTRICAL POWER CORD IS FRAYED OR BROKEN. The power
supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon
or against them, paying particular attention to cor ds and plugs and the point where they exit from the
appliance.
ALWAYS OPERATE THE UNIT WITH THE AC GROUND WIRE CONNECTED TO THE ELECTRICAL
SYSTEM GROUND. Precautions should be taken so that the means of grounding of a piece of equipment is
not defeated.
DO NOT REMOVE THE LID. Removing the lid will expose you to potentially dangerous voltages. There
are no user serviceable parts inside.
ESD strikes to the unit's front panel that are in excess of 4000 volts may cause disturbance to the status
LEDs on the unit. This will not affect audio performance and will be corrected on the next power up cycle.
