information being produced by the Amplifier. They 
indicate to an accuracy of at least 95% of the power 
output with only a single cycle of a 2,000Hz tone 
burst.

Power Guard

During normal operation, the Front Panel Power 
Guard Indicators will momentarily illuminate during 
peaks in the audio signals. In the event the MXA80 
over heats, due to improper ventilation, high ambient 
temperature and/or impedance mismatch, the inter-
nal protection circuits will activate. The Front Panel 
Power Guard Indicators will continuously illuminate 
and the audio will be muted. When the MXA80 has 
returned to a safe operating temperature, normal op-
eration will resume.

Using a Separate Power Amplifier or Subwoofer

To use a separate Amplifier instead of the MXA80 
built-in Power Amplifier, connect the Loudspeak-
ers to the separate Power Amplifier. Refer to page 13 
“External Power Amplifier Connections” for addition 
connection information. An external 
Powered Subwoofer may also be used 
with the MXA80. Refer to page 19 
“Subwoofer Mode” for additional infor-
mation.
When either an External Power Ampli-
fier or Powered Subwoofer is used with 
the MXA80 the Rear Panel PREAMP 
OUTPUT Jacks are used. Refer to figure 101.
