4. VHF protect indicator 

This indicator illuminates if signals above 12 kHz are continuously present at full power at the output 
terminals. If this occurs the input signal is muted, and the process cycles until the VHF signal is no longer 
present. (See page

5. Clip/limit indicator 

This indicator signals if the amplifier output is clipping or limiting. It has two different indication states: 
If the clip limiter is engaged, it has a short time constant, and it illuminates briefly. 
If the clip limiter is not engaged, it has an increased time constant, and it illuminates for a longer period.

6. Fan grill filters 

Two grilles with foam filters are located on the front panel to prevent dust from entering the amplifier. For 
easy cleaning of the filters the grilles are removable by simply pulling them off. The foam filters should 
always be used. 

 
7. Power switch 

Turns mains power on or off. (See page

 and

8. AC indicator 

Indicates if AC voltage is present. Note: Electrically this indicator is located in front of the power switch. 

 
9. AFS indicator

 

Indicates if the AFS

TM

 (Automatic Fuse Saver) current limiter is activated.

1. Output / Speaker connector  

The Speakon connector from Neutrik® may be unfamiliar to some users. A full description can be found 
in the “Connections” section. (See page 

14

 
2. Minimum load selector (MLS™) switch 

These switches are used to select the maximum output power. (See page 

8

 

3. Clip limiter switch 

Turns the clip limiter on or off. (See page 

15

 
4. Input signal XLR

Neutrik® Combojack features also ¼” TRS phone jacks. (Pin 2 is “hot”, see page 

13

 

5. Link output

 

XLR male connector connected in parallel to the female for linking the channel to another input. 
 

6. Gain switch channel B

 

Three of the switches in the DIP switch selects the maximum gain of the channel to be either 20, 23, 26, 
29, 32, 35, 38 or 41dB. (See page
