Each limiter may be completely defeated, by setting J7, J8, J9 and J10 to the
out position. If another M3 is to be driven from any of the output channels
(where one M3 splits the signal between sub-bass loudspeakers and the main
system crossovers), then the limiters should be defeated on those channels
to prevent them operating before the limiters in the following controller.
The use of very high power amplifiers with outputs greater than those
recommended is discouraged.
Care should be taken to avoid switch on surges, which can result in
momentary power peaks in excess of specified ratings. When powering up a
sound system it is important to switch on the amplifiers after the mixer and
control electronics have stabilised. When powering down the system, reverse
the sequence and switch off the amplifiers first.
