6 : 1.Amplifier settings: Input Gain/Sensitivity

all k Series amplifiers allow the selection of the input 

sensitivity. 

TaB. 2

 shows the input sensitivity values for the 

k Series amplifiers. These are the maximum rMS voltage 
values of a 1 kHz sine wave input before clipping occurs at 
the output stage. These values are reported with respect to 
the amplifier’s gain.

The maximum balanced input signal before saturation 

of the input stage of the amplifier occurs with respect to the 
amplifier’s gain is presented in 

TaB. 3

TAB. 4: Maximum output voltage (V

peak

).

6 : 3.Amplifier settings: Max output voltage

The max output peak voltage of k Series amplifiers can 

be set by the user. it is possible to set output peak voltage 
levels for channel 1, channel 2 or both. available voltage 
ranges for each model are shown in 

TaB. 4

.

6 : 4.Amplifier settings: Max mains current

The maximum current the amplifier can draw from the 

mains can be set by the user through the front panel of all 
k Series amplifiers. acceptable values are within the 8 a to 
16 a for k2 and k3 and from 15 a to 32 a range for all other 
k amplifiers.

Setting the maximum mains current determines the cur-

rent threshold at which a c-Type current breaker will trip.

6 : 5.Amplifier settings: Clip limiter CH1/CH2

The clip function can be used to prevent distortion 

caused by clipping of the output signal.

please note that clip limiters can be set independently 

for both channels.

CAUTION: disabling clip limiters can 

potentially damage loudspeakers.

The amplifier’s internal clip limiters should not be deac-

tivated unless the limiting function is implemented by an ex-
ternal device such as digital system controllers. in this case, 
it is extremely important to correctly set limiting parameters 
in order to preserve loudspeakers from excessively power-
ful and potentially hazardous driving signals.

6 : 6.Amplifier settings: Gate CH1/CH2

This function allows to mute the amplifier channels 

individually if the input signal amplitude falls below the 
threshold shown in 

TaB. 5

.

Gating the output is delayed by 5 seconds after the input 

signal falls below the threshold. if the channel is muted, the 
bottom green LED in the corresponding front panel LED 
column is off.

This functions allows the user to automatically mute all 

channels when the amplifier is turned on. if this function is 
enabled, a “Muted” label will appear at the main screen next 
to each channel at the next power on.
