Notes: 
1. Sensitivity 
Input sensitivities refer to 50 W into 4 ohm, full gain and master settings, 
neutral tone control settings, and 1 kHz sine-wave test signal. 
2. Noise and dynamic range 
Equivalent input noise voltages are typical values obtained by measuring 
noise voltage at speaker output and dividing by the voltage gain of the 
amplifier for white noise. Full gain and master settings, neutral tone 
control settings,  input shorted, measuring bandwidth 20 Hz – 20 kHz. 
Dynamic range of power amplifier: Ratio of between output signal at 
limiter threshold to A-weighted output noise with master in zero 
position. 
3. Output levels 
Output levels refer to 50 mV / 1 kHz sine-wave test signal at channel 1 
input, full gain and master settings, neutral tone control settings, send 
fully clockwise. 
4. Options 
Gain of channel 2 in mic mode can be decreased by 4.6 dB by an internal 
jumper. 
48 V phantom power can be deactivated by an internal jumper.

 

9 V phantom power for channel 1 can be applied by an internal jumper 
to the “ring” terminal of the input jack. Caution: Use this option with 
care. Read the operating instructions.
