REAR PANEL DESCRIPTION

The SR1530 has several connectors and

features that you should understand.

MAIN INPUT

This is a female XLR-type connector that

accepts a balanced line-level signal from a
mixing console or other signal source.

LOOP OUT

This is a male XLR-type connector that

produces exactly the same signal that is
connected to the 

MAIN INPUT

 jack. Use it to

daisy-chain several SR1530s together off
the same signal source.

Power ON Indicator

When the 

POWER

 switch is turned on,

and the linecord is connected to an active
AC power supply, this indicator lights green
to let you know that you’re ready to rock
and roll. The cool blue LED on the front of
the cabinet works in the same way.

PROTECTION Indicator

The SR1530 has a built-in limiter that

prevents the amplifier outputs from clip-
ping or overdriving the transducers. The

PROTECTION

 indicator lights when the lim-

iter is activated. It’s okay for the 

PROTECTION

indicator to blink occasionally, but if it blinks
frequently or lights continuously, turn down
the signal source’s level control until the 

PRO-

TECTION

 indicator only blinks occasionally.

There is also a thermal protection circuit

that monitors the internal temperature of the
amplifiers and heatsink. If the temperature
should exceed a safe operating level, the signal
is muted to allow the amplifiers to cool. When
the temperature cools to a safe level once
again, the thermal protection circuit deacti-
vates and normal operation continues.

Note:

 Activation of the thermal protec-

tion circuit is an indication that you should
take steps to avoid continued thermal prob-
lems. See “Thermal Considerations” on page 6.

POWER Switch

Use this switch to turn the SR1530 on

and off. Make sure the signal source’s level
control is turned down before you turn it on.

AC Receptacle

This is where you connect the AC line-

cord to provide AC power to the SR1530’s
built-in power amplifiers. Plug the linecord
into an AC socket properly configured for
your particular model.
