IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Read these instructions
2Keep these instructions.
3.Heed all warnings
4Follow all instructions
5.Do not use this apparatus near water.
The lightning fl ash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage“ within the product’s enclosure that may be of suffi cient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance
6Clean only with a dry cloth.
7.Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacture’s instructions
8 Do not install near heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus
(including amplifi ers) that produce heat
9Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or the grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fi t into your outlet, consult an electrican for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11Only use attachments/accessories specifi ed by the manufacturer
12Use only with the cart, tripod, bracket, or table specifi ed by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over
13Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for a long period of time.
14.Refer all servicing to qualifi ed service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped
15.Do not expose this equipment to dripping or splashing and ensure that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, are placed on the equipment
16 To completely disconnect this equipment from the AC Mains, disconnect the power plug from the AC receptacle
17.The mains plug of the power supply cord shall remain readily operable.
Management of WEEE (waste electrical and electronic equipment) (applicable in Member States of the European Union and other European countries with individual national policies on the management of WEEE) The symbol on the product or on its packaging indicates that this product may not be treated as regular household waste, but has to be disposed through returning it at a Telex dealer.

IMPORTANT SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS |
CAUTION: |
These servicing instructions are for use by qualifi ed personnel only. To reduce the risk of |
|
electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than that contained in the Operating |
|
Instructions unless you are qualifi ed to do so. Refer all servicing to qualifi ed service personnel. |
1Security regulations as stated in the EN 60065 (VDE 0860 / IEC 65) and the CSA E65 - 94 have to be obeyed when servicing the appliance
2Use of a mains separator transformer is mandatory during maintenance while the appliance is opened, needs to be operated and is connected to the mains
3Switch off the power before retrofi tting any extensions, changing the mains voltage or the output voltage.
4The minimum distance between parts carrying mains voltage and any accessible metal piece (metal enclosure), respectively between the mains poles has to be 3 mm and needs to be minded at all times. The minimum distance between parts carrying mains voltage and any switches or breakers that are not connected to the mains (secondary parts) has to be 6 mm and needs to be minded at all times.
5Replacing special components that are marked in the circuit diagram using the security symbol (Note) is only permissible when using original parts
6Altering the circuitry without prior consent or advice is not legitimate
7Any work security regulations that are applicable at the location where the appliance is being serviced have to be strictly obeyed. This applies also to any regulations about the work place itself.
8All instructions concerning the handling of MOS - circuits have to be observed.

DESCRIPTION
Congratulations! Your new DYNACORD MADRAS M18 is an active loudspeaker cabinet incorporating state-of-the art technology.
The MADRAS M18 is an active, optimally vented subwoofer with integrated controller and ElectroVoice EVX180B woofer
The integrated controller with 124 Hz, 24dB/octave and Linkwitz-Riley characteristics and the electronically balanced XLRF-type connectors allow easy installing an active 3-way system confi guration using active top-parts like for example the MADRAS M18 (in mid-high position). Frequency and phase responses of the MADRAS M18 also provide the possibility for direct parallel operation with suitable full-range cabinets. Achieving this is possible by simply feeding the MADRAS M18 Sub with a line level audio signal from a separate mixer output. Balance between MADRAS M18 Sub and top-parts can be established from the mixing console.
An 800W high-effi ciency class-H power amplifi er provides ample power. Consequential use of class-H technology reduces power dissipation, power consumption as well as the power amp’s weight noticeably.
The power amplifi er is convection-cooled, resulting in no disturbing noise from running fans.
The fully electronic VOICE COIL TRACKING PROTECTION prevents the EVX180B woofer from being damaged by thermal overload, which make the MADRAS M18 especially suitable for a wide range of demanding applications in the rental business. The birch multi-plywood enclosure is sealed with black, extremely shock-resistant structural lacquer fi nish. A robust, powder-coated steel grille protects the woofer against mechanical damage.
Mains connection is provided via lockable PowerCon connector. Also provided is a PowerCon mains output.Audio signal connection is provided via XLRF-type connector.An additional XLRF-type connector allows feeding the signal to another cabinet. The electronically balanced input features a level control for matching the volume. Four stable carrying handles as well as four professional-type castors allow for comfortable transport. Snap-in drillings allow trouble-free, stables stacking while an integrated polemount fl ange permits space-saving installation with top-parts.
UNPACKING & WARRANTY
Open the packaging and carefully take out the MADRAS M18. In addition to the appliance itself and this owner’s manual, the package also includes mains cord, level control cover and warranty certifi cate. Please make sure to keep warranty certifi cate and original invoice, stating the date of purchase, at a safe place

CONTROLS
INPUT
Electronically balanced input for the connection of high-level signal sources like mixing consoles or signal processors.
Connections can be established using phone or alternatively
XLR-type connectors.
Caution: Preventing the occurrence of spurious noise. Prior to connecting/disconnecting the input, set the level control to its counterclockwise stop.
OUTPUT
This connector is connected in parallel to the input allowing the through connection of the input audio signal.
LEVEL
dB-scaled level control for adjusting the power amp’s overall amplifi cation. To prevent distortion and clipping of pre-linked mixing consoles, the control should generally be set to a value between 0dB and +6dB.
