5.8 Impedance matching (MLS switch)
The MLS™ switches (2) are located on the rear panel. The MLS (Minimum
load select) switches offer impedance matching, so you can drive the
MA4.2 into 2 ohms without increased heat loss.
As stated earlier the MA4.2 can produce at least 2000 watts into any
impedance between 2 and 8 ohms. Utilise higher MLS™ positions when
connecting to lower impedances as shown in Table 2. As can be seen from
Table 2, The MA4.2 can produce in excess of 2000 watts.
*Component tolerance dependent.
Table 2.
Power rating at 1kHz and 1% THD.
MLS™ positions can be different for each channel and a variety of
combinations can be achieved see Table 3.
The way to find the best MLS™ position for your application is by
experimentation using table 3 for initial starting positions. The amplifier is
very well protected (even down to 0.3 ohms), but where speed is of
essence stick to the fixed positions. The MA4.2 amplifier is a power
converter and when you select MLS™ positions you are allocating a portion
of power from 5000 watts.
