 CLIP: When the LED lights in red, it indicates distortion. In this case, decrease your source signal
level until the LED turns off. Please keep in mind that the amplifier itself cannot correct any
distortion.
 SIGNAL: When the LED lights in green, it means that the CA is operating within its safety limits.
 PWR: The LED will light in blue when the CA is switched on.
 PROT: The LED will light in red when the amplifier is in protection mode. Switch off the device and
