SAFETY WARNINGS AND GUIDELINES

For best results, please thoroughly read this manual prior to use, paying particular
attention to the warnings in this Safety section:

• Do not expose this device to water or moisture of any kind. Do not place objects
containing liquid on or near this device.

• Do not expose this device to fire or other heat sources. Do not install it on or near
heat sources, such as ventilators, radiators, or near a fir epl ac e. Do not plac e
objects with open flame, such as lit candles, on or near this device.

• This device contains no user -serviceable parts. Do not open or attempt to modify
this device.

• Use only the included AC power adapter or an exact replacement (24 VDC,

1.5A).

• Take care to ensure that the power cord does not get crimped, kinked, pinched,
stepped on, or otherwise damaged. Take care that the cord cannot be a trip/fall
hazard.

• When unplugging connections, always grasp the connector head. Never pull on
the cord or wires.

• Never connect speakers rated for less than 4-ohms to the amplifier in stereo
mode. Never connect a speaker rated for less than 8-ohms to the amplifier in
bridged mono mode.

OVERVIEW

This compact and powerful amplifier is packed with advanced features, yet is rugged
enough for commercial environments where a 100% duty cycle is required.

It uses an efficient Class D amplifier design, occupies little space, and requires no
ventilation. It provides either 20-watts (RMS) of power into two channels or 40-watts
(RMS) in bridged mono mode. It accepts two line level inputs and features an internal
Bluetooth receiver as a third input. A switchable limiter provides protection against
distortion and clipping when used near full output, while the switchable contoured
loudness circuit boosts low- and high-frequency signals at lower volume levels. A 9-pin
RS-232 serial interface allows the amplifier to be controlled using a PC.

For best results, please thoroughly read this manual prior to use. Keep this manual in a
safe place for future referenc e .
