Power Source

AC Power Source

The supply transformer has been designed for 
AC 240V /115V (±10%) 50 /60 Hz.

DC Power Source

Battery Connection (24Vdc)

When using external batteries, please ensure 
the amplifier is grounded via the screw 
terminal. (Electrical stability of the system 
will be improved by providing a good earth 
ground.) When connecting batteries, please 
ensure correct polarity.

Main Connections

Each input has XLR and Phone jack input.

Speaker Output Connection

The speaker output screw terminal is on the 
rear panel.  It can connect low impedance 8 
ohm, or high-level 70V or 100V speaker.  Use 
only one of these output connections for 
corresponding speaker.

As a guide for the correct gauge of wire, we 
recommend the following:

For best performance when using long lines 
between microphones/mixer and or amplifier 
use balanced lines. These have the effect of 
cancelling out any noise or hum that may be 
induced into the cables. the amplifier to be 
processed externally and then returned to the 
power amplifier section of the amplifier. The 
connecting link must be plugged in for normal 
operation as a mixer/amplifier. “PRE OUT” is 
after the tone controls and the master volume

Sensitivity Selection Switch

Place the switch on 100mV or 1V position for 
corresponding sensitivity of signal source 
from other devices.

Booster Output Connection

Use XRL (female) or phone jack to connect 
booster output to another amplifier.

Parallel / Mono Switch

The amplifier includes both male and female 3 
pin XLR connectors, labeled input and output. 
While the female is normally used as the input 
to the amplifier, both XLR’s are connected 
in parallel so either will work. When signal 
is connected to one XLR, the other XLR 
becomes a line level output allowing the 
input signal to be distributed (split) to other 
amplifiers. In some projects, the same input 
may be looped through to multiple amplifiers 
using this method. Up to 6 amplifiers can be 
looped together without any noticeable loss 
in level. A distribution amplifier should be 
used when more than 6 amplifiers need to be 
looped.
