Electro-Voice Precision P3000, Service Manual

Page: 4 / 32

The modes DUAL/Stereo or PARAL-
LEL/Mono can be selected via the Input
Routing Switch. Furthermore, the PRECISI-
ON SERIES power amplifiers can also be
operated in “Mono Bridged” mode. The front
panel accommodates the dB-calibrated input
Gain controls which are designed as espe-
cially precise and safe-to-operate detented
potentiometers. The LED display provides
information about the power amplifers’ ope-
rating status. For the two channels, they
demonstrate readiness to operate, whether
there is a signal at the input or output, when
the Limiters have been activated and whether
one of the protective features has been
triggered. The power outputs Channel A,
Channel B and Bridged Out are available on
Speakon connectors. The rear side of the unit
accommodates the ON/OFF switches for the
integrated Hi and Lo cut filters, a groundlift
switch which separates the housing from the
circuit ground thus helping to prevent hum
loops and the operating modes selector to
mono bridged operation. They also feature
extremely quiet fans with front-to-rear airflow,
facilitating operation in large and narrow
amplifier racks.
