These controls are very useful in rooms with unusual or bad acoustic
characteristics. For example in a room that is very dead or over damped,
raising the treble level will allow the Bass to cut though better. If the room
has too much bass the same solution will be helpful. In a very live or
reverberant room turning down the treble will mellow out the Bass tone
quickly without upsetting your normal tone control settings.

Limit LED 

– This LED displays the amplifier maximum output condition

and lets you know that the amplifier has reached full output. It’s fine for the
LED to blink often at high power operation. It should not, however, remain
lit continuously. This LED also indicates that the internal limiter is engaging
to prevent clipping.

Signal Path Switching (Stereo, Dual Mono, Mono Bridged)

 – The World

Tour Power Amplifiers have input signal path switching on the front panel
along with indicator LEDs. This allows for an easy set up of the signal
routing and a highly visible display of the operating choices.

You can select Dual Mono (both channels see the same input), True Stereo
(each channel has its own input left and right), or Mono Bridged (both
channels combine into one big channel and produce twice the power output).
You can operate in Bridged Mono @ either 8 ohms or 4 Ohms with this unit.

Channel Output Indicator 

– This LED indicates that the amplifier channel

has reached maximum output and is going into limiting.

Mains On / Off  Switch

 – Turns the unit ON and OFF.

Front Panel Air Intake

 – Do not obstruct the airflow to this intake.

Obstructing the airflow to this intake is a Very Bad Thing and will reduce
performance of the entire cooling system.

BACK PANEL FEATURES

Power Cord Jack 

– Your unit is fitted with an IEC interface for universal

AC cable connection. The removable power cord is attached here.
