Safety messages explained
Four types of signs can be used in this manual. The type is closely related to the effect that
may be caused if it is not observed. These signs - from least severe effect to most severe
effect - are:
Notice!
Containing additional information. Usually, not observing a ‘notice’ does not result in damage
to the equipment or personal injuries.
Caution!
The equipment or the property can be damaged, or persons can be lightly injured if the alert
is not observed.
Warning!
The equipment or the property can be seriously damaged, or persons can be severely injured
if the alert is not observed.
Danger!
Not observing the alert can lead to severe injuries or death.
1.2

The lightning symbol inside a triangle notifies the user of high-voltage, uninsulated lines and
contacts inside the devices that could result in fatal electrocution if touched.
Warning!
An exclamation mark inside a triangle refers the user to important operating and service
instructions in the documentation for the equipment.

ground connection.
Caution!
Use only manufacturer-approved carts, stands, brackets, or tables that you acquired together
with the device. When using carts to move the device, make sure the transported equipment
and the cart itself cannot tip over or cause injury or material damage.
IMPORTANT SERVICE INFORMATION
Caution!
This service information is for use by qualified service personnel only. To avoid the risk of
electric shock, do not perform any maintenance work that is not described in the operating
instructions unless you are qualified to do so. Have all service work and repairs performed by
a trained customer service technician.
1. Repair work on the device must comply with the safety standards specified in EN 60065

Safety precautions
Speaker system damage and protection of human beings
Power amps provide extremely high power output that might be dangerous for human beings
as well as for the connected speaker systems. High output voltages can damage or even
destroy the connected speaker systems, especially, when the amplifier is operated in bridged
mode. Prior to connecting any loudspeakers, make sure to check the speaker system’s
specifications for continuous and peak power handling capacities. Even if amplification has
been reduced through lowering the input level controls on the amplifier’s front panel, it is still
possible to achieve full power output with a sufficiently high input signal.
Danger!
Danger at the loudspeaker/power outputs
Power amplifiers are capable of producing dangerously high voltage output that is present at
the output connectors.
To protect yourself from electric shock, do not touch any blank speaker cables during
operation of the power amp.
Danger!
The terminals marked with a lightning bolt are hazardous live and the external wiring
connected to these terminals requires installation by an instructed person or the use of ready-
made leads of cords.
Danger!
In case of using the amplifier with speakers including a primary tapped transformer, it is
possible that during operation shock hazard voltages may be present at the taps of the
transformer.
Therefore, the taps have to be insulated sufficiently in accordance with applicable safety
regulations.

Unpacking and inspection
3.4
Carefully open the packaging and take out the power amplifier. Inspect the power amp’s
enclosure for damages that might have happened during transportation. Each amplifier is
examined and tested in detail before leaving the manufacturing site to ensure that it arrives in
perfect condition at your place. Please inform the transport company immediately, if the
power amplifier shows any damage. Being the addressee, you are the only person who can
claim damages in transit. Keep the cardboard box and all packaging materials for inspection
by the transport company.
Keeping the cardboard box including all packing materials is also recommended, if the power
amplifier shows no external damages.
Caution!
Do not ship the power amp in any other but its original packaging.
When shipping the power amp, make sure to always use its original box and packaging
materials. Packing the power amplifier like it was packed by the manufacturer guarantees
optimum protection from transport damage.

Installation
Operating voltage
The power amplifier receives its power supply via the MAINS IN connector. Only the provided
power cord may be used. During installation, always separate the power amplifier from the
mains. Connect the power amplifier only to a mains network, which corresponds to the
requirements indicated on the type plate.
Power
The L Series power button is located on the front of the amplifier panel. The C Series power
switch is located on the rear of the amplifier panel.
L Series
The Power button on the front panel separates the power amp from the mains. Pressing the
Power button turns on the power amp. A soft start circuit compensates mains inrush current
peaks and thus prevents triggering AC mains fuse when switching on the amplifier. Speaker
system switch-on is delayed by approximately two seconds via output relays, effectively
suppressing any possible power-on noise, which otherwise might be heard through the
loudspeakers.
5.2.2
Figure 5.1: Power button on the front panel (L Series)
C Series
The Power/Standby switch on the rear panel is used to turn on the power to the amplifier or
put the amplifier into standby mode. To separate the amplifier from the mains it is required to
disconnect the mains power connection. A soft start circuit compensates mains inrush current
peaks and thus prevents the automatic cutout of the mains from reacting when switching on
the power amplifier. Speaker system switch-on is delayed by approximately two seconds via
output relays, effectively suppressing any possible power-on noise, which otherwise might be
heard through the loudspeakers. PROTECT-LED lights up and fans are at high speed during
this delay. This indicates all protections are working fine.
