UNPACKING
The amplifier was thoroughly checked before leaving the factory. Inspect the amplifier and shipping container carefully for evidence of improper handling during shipment. In case of
damage, make an immediate claim to the dealer or distributor from whom the unit was purchased. If the amplifier was shipped to you, notify the carrier without delay and file a claim.

High impedance input
The amplifier can be driven to full output from any source developing 200 conductor, low-capacity shielded input cable to a standard
phono plug (Cinch Hi-Z jacks on the rear of the chassis. Amplifiers may also be
connected in parallel by connecting a patch cord from Hi-Z
input to Hi-Z input of the amplifiers without loss of gain.

Use the two outside terminals on the strip for input and connect the cable shield to the GND terminal.

Balanced bridging input
The inputs for two or more amplifiers may be paralleled
without loss of gain. To do this, install a Bogen Model transformer in socket Xl. Connect the 6OOa source to the BAL LOW Z terminal strip on the rear of the unit. Use the two outside terminals on the strip and connect the cable shields to the GND terminal. If an unbalanced input is required, connect a jumper from the GND terminal to an adjacent input terminal.

Input from another amplifier
The amplifier can be driven from a standard public address
amplifier that provides a 25-volt or 70-volt constant voltage
output. To do this, connect the output of the amplifier to one of the Hi-Z INPUT jacks via a resistor network (see figure 1). The resistors shown in figure 1 are in addition to the normal loudspeaker load on the output of the public address amplifier.
OUTPUTCONNECTIONS
CA UTION Be sure to connecting amplifier output.
A variety of outputs is provided from the amplifier, either balanced or unbalanced. Refer to Table connections. Generally, the ground link does not need to be connected unless an unbalanced output is especially desired.

Input connections
If the amplifier Hi-Z inputs are being driven directly, simply parallel the amplifier Hi-Z inputs with a phono patch cord, and connect the input line to one amplifier. When a balanced input transformer is being used, parallel the inputs at the screw terminals.
70V constant-voltage output
For 70V constant voltage operation, connect the speaker leads to the 70V and COM terminals on the rear of the unit. If grounding is required, connect the link from COM to

amplifier types.
TABLE 2- Amplifier Series Connection
Level control adjustment
It
is extremely important that the amplifiers have the same gain and produce equal power output. This adjustment is most easily accomplished by setting both amplifier level controls to maximum and then providing an external gain control as shown in figure 2. Make sure speech filter switches are in the same position. If an external control cannot be provided, amplifier gain must be set with the use of an external tone source, adjusting the amplifiers to produce the same output with inputs paralleled. Always keep level controls at approximately the same position even when setting up the amplifiers.
CONNECTING AMPLIFIERS IN PARALLEL
It is not recommended that amplifiers be connected in parallel. However, this is sometimes unavoidable. If it is necessary to connect amplifiers in this configuration, consult our Engineering Department for instructions.

Thermal breaker
If the thermal breaker opens, there will be no audio output but the AC power lamp will remain on. Wait approximately five minutes for the breaker to reset. If the breaker resets and then opens again, investigate the cause of the high temperature overload. This may be due to improper connections at the output terminals or to excessive environmental heat with inadequate ventilation. The thermal breaker will open when the temperature at any one of the output transistors is excessive.
MAINTENANCE

source. Use a
48V-56VDC source
Connect the amplifier to a DC source capable of delivering power indicated in the Technical Specifications table. A polarized plug is supplied with the amplifier for making DC connections. Connect DC cable to source, making certain to observe proper polarity. An isolation diode should be used in series with the DC supply as in figure 3.
OPERATION
VOLUME CONTROL
A volume control located on the rear of the unit is used primarily to compensate for variations in preamplifier output levels. The VOLUME control permits the gain of the amplifier to be preset so that the preamplifier volume control may be operated near the center of its range, rather than at an extreme maximum or minimum. The VOLUME control is a screwdriver adjustment which needs to be set only once for any given preamplifier input.
DC POWER OPERATION
When the amplifier is operated from a DC power source, the AC power switch and AC power indicator lamp will be inoperative. Turn the amplifier on and off from the power switch on the DC power supply or by inserting and removing the DC power leads on the rear of the unit.
AC OPERATION
There are two overload protective devices used with AC operation, the circuit breaker and the temperature overload thermal breaker.
AC circuit breaker
If the circuit breaker opens, the AC power lamp will go out
and the amplifier will have no output. Set the AC power switch to off and momentarily depress the red button on the circuit
breaker to reset it. Return the AC power switch to on. If the breaker trips again, do not attempt to reset it but have the
trouble investigated by a qualified technician.
There are no user-replaceable parts within the
3-
unit. Have all internal servicing done by a qualified technician.

BOGEN SERVICE
We are interested in your Bogen equipment for as long as you have it. If trouble ever develops, do not hesitate to ask our advice or assistance. Information can be obtained by writing to Service Department, Bogen Division, P.O. Box 500, Paramus,
N.J. 07652.
When communicating with us, give the model and series designation of your unit. Describe the difficulty and include
details on the electrical connections to and the types of
associated equipment, such as preamplifier, speakers, etc. We
will send you service information if the trouble appears simple.
If the trouble requires servicing, we will send you the name and address of the nearest authorized Bogen service agency.
Before returning any equipment to Bogen, contact the Bogen Service Department at the above address. If you do ship the unit, pack it carefully to avoid damage in transit. Send the unit
fully insured and prepaid. It will be promptly repaired and
returned to you freight collect.
REPLACEMENT PARTS
Most components used in the amplifier are standard parts available through reputable parts suppliers. The parts listed here may be obtained from Bogen distributors, service agencies or directly from the factory. When ordering a part, specify the part number and the description of the part as listed. Specify the model of the unit and give the series designation, which is a letter followed by numbers, stamped on the chassis. For parts on circuit boards, also give the component board assembly number, which begins with
When replacing transistors, use those made by the manu­facturers specified. Transistors from other suppliers may not be satisfactory. Certain resistors must be Allen-Bradley. These are designated by “AB” on the schematic diagram.
Replacing transistors
If a transistor must be unsoldered for testing or replacement, be certain to remove all power from the unit to prevent possible voltage transients in the circuit which might damage the transistor. To prevent overheating the transistor when soldering or unsoldering a lead, grip the lead between the point of heat and the case with pliers or tweezers. These will act as a heat sink to conduct heat away from the transistor. Do not bend a transistor lead closer than 1 / 16” from the transistor case.
“45”.
4
Power transistors must be properly mounted to insure good
heat dissipation. Make certain there is no foreign matter on the contact surfaces between the transistor and the heat sink and brush a thin coating of heat transfer compound (such as Dow Corning No. 340 Compound silicon grease) on both surfaces. Similarly coat any insulators used between the transistor and the heat sink and secure the transistor firmly to the heat sink.
