SA-4200™ Power Amplifier
Description
Keeping with the Sanctuary Series creed, this four-channel power amplifier solves common audio problems with exclusive Peavey
technology. Built-in Auto Delay™ automatically measures and sets the proper delay time for fill loudspeakers, eliminating the
frustrating delay and phasing problems experienced in many houses of worship.
The SA-4200 also features four channels rated at 200 watts each into 4 ohms or 70 volts (selectable in two-channel pairs). This
versatility makes the SA-4200 ideal for delivering power to both main and balcony/fill loudspeakers and any application requiring
multiple audio zones, such as cry rooms or paging systems in larger houses of worship.
Features
• Four-channel power amplifier system rated at 200 watts RMS per channel
• Low-Z (4 or 8 ohms) or 70V outputs selectable in two-channel pairs
• Patent-pending, proprietary built-in Auto Delay circuitry
• Dedicated XLR-type, electronically balanced input connectors
• Low-cut filter on each channel
• Front panel detented level controls
• Front panel AC power switch/circuit breaker
• Short circuit, thermal and DC load protection circuitry
• Rugged, 2U rack-mount design
• Two-speed, fan-cooled patented heat-management design (U.S. Patent Number 6,515,859)
• Signal and clip LED indicators for each channel
with security cover
on front panel
Unpacking
Upon unpacking, inspect the amplifier. If you find any damage, notify your supplier immediately. Only the consignee may institute
a claim with the carrier for damage incurred during shipping. Be sure to save the carton and all packing materials. Should you ever
need to ship the unit back to Peavey Electronics, one of its offices, service centers or the supplier, use only the original factory
packing. If the shipping carton is unavailable, contact Peavey to obtain a replacement.
Mounting
The SA-4200 amplifier will mount in standard 19” E.I.A. equipment racks.
Security Cover
A security cover is provided to prevent inadvertent level adjustments. It is designed to permit monitoring of the various LEDs
without removal. To remove the cover‚ simply remove the Phillips-head mounting screw.
Cooling Requirements
The SA-4200 amplifier uses a forced-air cooling system to maintain a low, even operating temperature. Air is drawn into
the amplifier via a fan located in the back of the unit and courses through the cooling fins of the tunnel-configured channel
heat sinks. The air then exits through the front panel slots. If the heat sinks get too hot‚ a sensing circuit will activate the
protective muting system to protect the amplifier. When the internal temperature reaches a safe level‚ the amplifier will
automatically return to normal operation. It is important that both the front and rear of the unit have enough space to allow
the cooling air to enter and escape. If the amp is rack mounted, do not use doors or covers on the front of the rack; the
intake air must flow without resistance. If you are using racks with closed backs, make sure that there is one (1) standard
rack space opening for every three mounted power amplifiers. If not rack mounted‚ allow 6” of clearance on all sides.

Operating Precautions
Make sure the mains voltage is correct and is the same as that printed on the rear of the amplifier. Damage caused
by connecting the amplifier to improper AC voltage is not covered by any warranty.
Note: Always turn off and disconnect the amplifier from mains voltage before making audio connections. Also, as an
extra precaution, have the attenuators turned down during power-up.
It is always a good idea to have the gain controls turned down during power-up to prevent loudspeaker damage if
there is a high signal level at the inputs. Whether you buy or make them, use high-quality connections, input cables
and loudspeaker cables along with proper soldering technique to ensure trouble-free operation. Most intermittent
problems are caused by faulty cables.
Consult the Wire Gauge Chart (below) to determine proper gauges for various load impedances and cable lengths.
2
Remember that cable impedance robs amplifier power in two ways: power lost directly to resistance (I
R loss) and
by raising the total load impedance.

1. POWER INDICATOR:
The green LED indicates that AC power is supplied to the unit‚ the power switch is ON and the unit is
functional with no faults. If the amplifier has a thermal fault condition‚ this LED will not illuminate.
2. SIGNAL INDICATORS:
Yellow LEDs indicate signal presence at that specific channel output (identical on each channel).
3. CLIP (DDT™) INDICATORS:
Any time a channel is driven into hard, continuous clipping, the DDT circuit will automatically reduce the
channel gain to a level just slightly into clipping, guarding the loudspeakers against the damaging high power
continuous square waves that may be produced. Situations that may activate the DDT circuit include
uncontrolled feedback, oscillations or an improper equipment setting or malfunction upstream from
the amplifier. On the SA-4200™, normal program transients will not trigger DDT; only steady, excessive
clipping will. The LEDs will illuminate red when the DDT circuitry is active (identical on each channel).
3

4. INPUT LEVEL CONTROLS:
These controls adjust the signal level to the power amplifier inputs. Maximum input sensitivity is achieved
at the fully clockwise setting. These controls are detented to allow the input sensitivity of the channels to
be closely matched. This is essential in the bridged-output mode. See MODE CONFIGURATION on pages
18-21.
5. AC POWER SWITCH/CIRCUIT BREAKER:
The SA-4200 amplifier has a combination AC switch/circuit breaker on the front panel. If the switch shuts
off during normal use, push it back to the ON position once. If it will not stay on, the amplifier needs
servicing.
6. COOLING AIR VENT:
The SA-4200 is designed to operate under extreme conditions. Part of this design includes the air vents
visible from the front of the unit. These openings should never be blocked.

7. AC MAINS POWER RECEPTACLE:
This is a standard IEC power connector. An AC mains cord with the appropriate AC plug and ratings
for the intended operating voltage is included in the carton. The mains cord should be connected to the
amplifier before connecting to a suitable AC outlet.
AC MAINS CORD:
The mains cord supplied with the unit is a heavy duty‚ three-conductor type with a conventional
120 VAC plug with ground pin. Never break off the ground pin on any equipment. It is provided for
your safety. If the outlet used does not have a ground pin‚ a suitable grounding adapter should be
used and the third wire should be properly grounded.
8. CHANNEL A/B OUTPUT MODE SELECT (low-Z or 70 volt):
This slide switch allows channels A and B of this amp to be configured for either conventional low-Z or for
a 70 volt distribution loudspeaker system.
13
9. CHANNEL C/D OUTPUT MODE SELECT (low-Z or 70 volt):
This slide switch allows channels C and D of this amp to be configured for either conventional low-Z or for
a 70 volt distribution loudspeaker system.
10. CHANNEL A/B OUTPUTS:
The outputs are screw-type for channels A and B. Connect the loudspeaker system to the respective
positive and ground terminals. These outputs may also be used in BRIDGE Mode for a single output. See
Dual/Bridge Mode Switch (14) and MODE CONFIGURATIONS below for more details.
11. CHANNEL C/D OUTPUTS:
The outputs are screw-terminal type for channels C and D. Connect the loudspeaker system to the
respective positive and ground terminals.
12. FAN GRILLE:
A two-speed DC fan supplies cool air to the amplifier. This intake should never be blocked. The fan
automatically switches to high-speed when the unit requires additional cooling. When the amplifier is
relatively cool and at idle‚ the fan should operate at low speed. The fan should never stop unless the
amplifier is switched off or the AC mains power source is interrupted.
13. CHANNEL INPUTS:
These female XLR jacks allow for electronically balanced line-level input signals to be connected to the
system. Each input has a sensitivity of approximately 1.4 volts. Pin 2 is positive, Pin 3 is negative, and Pin 1
is ground.

14. DUAL/BRIDGE MODE SWITCH:
18
16
17
15
14
This push-button switch places channels A and B in either Dual Mode or Bridge Mode. In Dual Mode,
channels A and B are independent amplifier channels with their respective input signals connected to
the respective input jacks. In Bridge Mode, the signal from input A is inverted and applied to input B
so that channels A and B can be used together as a single amplifier with double the power. Be sure to
connect the load to the bridge terminals only. In Bridge Mode, the minimum load impedance is 8 ohms in
low-Z mode. If the output mode is set to 70V, the bridge output voltage is actually 140V. Be sure to use
transformers and wiring rated for this application.
NOTE: In Bridge Mode, both the A and B volume controls are active. Set both controls to the same
position.
15. LOW-CUT (60 Hz) SWITCHES:
Each switch places a 12 dB/octave, 60 Hz low-cut filter in the inputs of each amplifier channel pair. When
the 70V output mode is used, this filter is highly recommended to prevent low frequency energy from
saturating the matching transformers. This filter is also useful in low impedance mode for loudspeakers
that are not designed to reproduce low frequencies. To choose the output mode, see Output Mode
Select Switches, (8) and (9).
16. AUTO DELAY™ INPUT SELECT SWITCH (D/C/LOCK):
This three-position switch either locks the delay settings or enables delay time adjustment of the C or D
channels. The delay must be ACTIVE in the corresponding channel for the delay adjustment to function.
When input C or D is selected for adjustment, the AUTO DELAY control (18) can be used to change the
delay time. To adjust the delay time using your own test equipment, select the input to adjust and leave
the DELAY MODE switch (17) in NORM. When in Lock, the AUTO DELAY cannot enter into TEST
mode (17), and the AUTO DELAY control (18) is inactive.
17. DELAY MODE SWITCH (NORM/TEST):
This switch is used to activate the AUTO DELAY circuitry. Before the test mode can be activated, the
AUTO DELAY INPUT SELECT switch (16) must be set to the desired channel and the DELAY switch
(20) on that channel must be ACTIVE. The Delay meter LEDs illuminate when test mode is activated.
The TEST REFERENCE OUTPUT (22) must be connected to the main sound system and a microphone
connected to the TEST MIC input (21). Entering TEST mode disables normal delay operation of both
delay channels. See the instructions below for the AUTO DELAY setup procedure.
18. AUTO DELAY ADJUST CONTROL (AUTO/MANUAL):
This control is used to manually adjust the delay time of the amplifier channel selected by INPUT SELECT
switch (16). Turning the control clockwise increases the delay time. In TEST mode (17), the Delay Meter
LEDs (19) indicate the required adjustment direction–simply turn this control toward the green LED. By
pushing this control, the delay time required will be set automatically as an alternative method.

19. DELAY METER:
The three LEDs of the Delay meter perform multiple functions. When using the AUTO DELAY function of
the SA-4200™, the Delay meter indicates whether the current delay setting meets the criteria for correct
alignment. The
OK LED will light if the sound arrives at the TEST MIC (21) from the delayed loudspeaker
10 to 15 ms after the sound from the main reference system. The LONG LED lights if the delay time is
too long. The
SHORT LED lights if the delay is set too brief. To allow easier reading of the LEDs in a dark
equipment rack, the LEDs that are unlit actually glow dimly to identify the pertinent “on” LED. In addition
to indicating the relative delay time, these LEDs are also used to indicate fault conditions in the test setup.
In these cases, the LED will blink.
Delay Measurement Fault Conditions
LONG LED blinking indicates that the required delay is greater than the 100 ms available.
OK LED blinking indicates that unit did not detect the test tone from both loudspeakers.
SHORT LED blinking indicates that the mic is not connected.
NOTE: This fault condition information is also printed on the rear of the amplifier.
20. DELAY SWITCHES (ACTIVE/BYPASS):
These switches activate or bypass each respective delay circuit in channels C and D. Each switch must be
ACTIVE for the AUTO DELAY to enter into the Test Mode (17) for each channel.
21
20
21. TEST MIC INPUT:
This input is used during delay adjustment to determine the required delay time. Almost any balanced
microphone will work for this application. Phantom power (15 volts) is supplied and will power most
condenser microphones. The test mic should be placed in the listening position nearest the auxiliary
loudspeaker system that is being delayed. If a directional mic is used, it should be positioned so that it picks
up signals from both the main and auxiliary loudspeaker systems.
22. TEST REFERENCE OUTPUT:
This output is an electronically balanced output that sends a test tone to the main “reference” sound
system. The output can be connected to mic- or line-level balanced inputs. Be sure to turn the channel
level and gain down before activating the delay test.

AUTO DELAY™
Auto Delay Application Background
Compared to light and electricity, sound travels along at a leisurely 1130 feet/second. This relatively slow speed
affects many aspects of sound system design and operation. Reverberation as we know it would not exist if sound
traveled at the speed of light. Many of the other challenges would be different, as well.
One such challenge occurs in many churches, auditoriums and venues where a talker is addressing a large group of
people either unaided or through the use of a central sound system. Audience members may have difficulty hearing
or understanding what is being said when seated in certain areas of the room. They may be seated in an area that the
main loudspeaker system does not cover well, such as under a balcony; they may be in a location that is physically
connected but acoustically isolated, such as an overflow seating area; or they simply may be too far away. Hearing can
be difficult in these areas because the sound level from the talker or main loudspeaker system is too low compared
to ambient noise or room reverberation. In most cases auxiliary loudspeakers are added locally to obtain sufficient
sound levels in these areas; however, without proper consideration for the slow speed of sound, intelligibility can still
be a problem. If the auxiliary loudspeaker system is sufficiently far from the main loudspeaker system, the auxiliary
system will be heard first followed by the main system, which is heard as an echo. Depending on the delay time and
volume, the echo can interfere with listening. Additionally, if the auxiliary loudspeaker is not between the listener
and the original sound source, the sound will appear to come from the wrong direction (the auxiliary loudspeaker)
and can distract the listener.
In the 1940s, Helmut Haas researched the disrupting effect delayed sound can have on the listener and how delay
affects sound localization. Using principles based on his research, and with the use of modern digital delay lines, the
echo and localization problems described above can be overcome and the integration of auxiliary loudspeakers made
virtually seamless.
Haas’s experiments involved listening tests where one talker’s voice was reproduced by two loudspeaker systems,
one using a magnetic audio-tape delay. He observed that if the sound arrives from the delayed loudspeaker between
1 and 30 ms after the original, the delayed loudspeaker is not heard at all, even if the volume from each loudspeaker
is the same. The sound appears to come only from the non-delayed loudspeaker. However, the perceived volume
will be louder due to the combined power of the loudspeakers. He further observed that if one loudspeaker is
delayed 5 to 30 ms, the delayed loudspeaker needed to be 10 dB greater in volume than the reference loudspeaker
for the listener to perceive the volume from the two loudspeakers as equal. As the delay time was further increased,
the volume difference must be decreased for the two loudspeakers to appear to be at the same level. Although
the sound quality changed somewhat with the delay, it was not considered disturbing, and actually made listening
less tiring and more natural. As the delay reached approximately 50 ms, it was possible to discriminate the delayed
loudspeaker as a separate echo.
Haas further observed that depending on the rate of speech, if the amplitude of the echo were equal to 10 dB greater
than the original sound, delays of 40 to 50 ms would disturb only a small percentage of listeners. If the echo signal
was reduced in amplitude to 10 dB below the original, no amount of delay disturbed the listeners.
Based on his research, auxiliary loudspeakers benefit from sufficient delay of their signal so that its sound arrives
at the listener 5 to 30 ms after the arrival of the original sound. Even as the amplitude of this local loudspeaker is
increased, the additional delay will help move the sound image toward the original source. As long as the difference
in arrival time within the coveragence area of the two loudspeaker systems is 45 ms or less, an echo will not be
perceived and listeners should not be disturbed.
Traditionally there are several standard approaches to achieving the alignment goal discussed above. The installer can
measure the distance from the main loudspeaker to the listener nearest the auxiliary loudspeaker system and the
distance from the auxiliary loudspeaker to that same listener. The needed delay could be calculated by the following:
(required delay distance) = (main to listener in feet) – (auxiliary to listener in feet) + 10 feet. To convert the distance
into the approximate delay time, divide (required delay distance in feet) by 1130. (Sound travels approximately
1130 feet per second.) The delay time can also be set by ear. Most installers now set delay time using audio test
equipment.

AUTO DELAY™
The Sanctuary Series™ SA-4200™ power amplifier with Auto Delay provides the tools necessary to easily install and
align loudspeaker systems requiring delay. The delay can be set using any of three different methods. The installer
can use his own test equipment to manually adjust the delay, or the delay test circuitry built into the SA-4200
can be used to manually or automatically set the delay. The Auto Delay circuitry sets the delay by measuring and
comparing the times for reference signals to travel to a microphone in the delayed listening position from the main
and auxiliary loudspeaker systems. The SA-4200 has a delay meter to indicate correct alignment of the main and
auxiliary loudspeakers, taking advantage of the Haas Precedent Effect. Pressing the AUTO set button automatically
sets the delay for correct alignment. Once set, the delay can be locked to prevent accidental adjustment.
12
Page 13
AUTO DELAY™ SETUP PROCEDURE
The delay time will be determined by alternately sending a short tone burst out of the main and auxiliary
loudspeaker systems and measuring the time each tone burst takes to travel to the microphone.
• Make sure that the amplifier and auxiliary loudspeaker system installation is operable by testing the system with
the delay bypassed.
• Place a test microphone on a stand at the listening position closest to the auxiliary loudspeaker system. (Best
results are achieved when a Sanctuary Series PVM™22 dynamic microphone is used; however, any standard dynamic
mic or a condenser mic that will operate on +15 volts phantom power will be suitable.) Position the mic so that
it will pick up signals from both the main and auxiliary loudspeaker systems. Connect the microphone to the TEST
MIC Input (21) on the rear of the amplifier.
• Connect the TEST REFERENCE OUTPUT (22) on the rear of the amplifier to a console input on the main sound
system. Turn the channel input gain and channel fader all the way down on the console. Additionally, turn the delayed
channel level control on the SA-4200™ all the way down.
• Set the DELAY Switch (20) for the appropriate channel to ACTIVE.
• Set the INPUT SELECT Switch (16) to select the appropriate channel for delay adjustment (C or D).
• Set the DELAY MODE Switch (17) to TEST.
• Adjust the gain on the main system’s mix console so that the tone burst is heard at a moderate level in the
room.
• Adjust the SA-4200 amplifier channel level control on the auxiliary channel to be delayed (C or D) so that the
volume of the tone burst in the auxiliary loudspeaker system is similar in level to the tone burst of the main system
at the microphone. (This is not a critical adjustment.)
• Adjust the delay time using the AUTO DELAY ADJUST Control (18) on the rear of the amplifier for the proper
delay as indicated by the green OK LED. If the SHORT LED is lit, turn the control clockwise to increase the delay.
If the LONG LED is lit, turn the control counterclockwise to decrease the delay.
• Pressing the AUTO DELAY ADJUST Control (18) will automatically set the delay time. The green OK LED should
illuminate.
• When the setup is complete, return the INPUT SELECT Switch (16) to LOCK and the DELAY MODE Switch
(17) to NORM.
NOTE: The delay time is actually set slightly longer than synchronous to allow for the Haas Precedence Effect. In order
to better identify the LED that is lit in a dark rack, the “off” LEDs glow dimly.
Delay Measurement Fault Conditions
• If the unit senses that the microphone is not connected or operable, then the lower SHORT LED will flash
continuously.
• If the microphone does not sense the tone from both loudspeaker systems, then the green OK LED with flash
continuously.
• If the required delay time is greater than the available delay memory (about 100 ms), then the top LONG LED
will flash continuously.
NOTE: One of the above fault condition messages may occasionally display during testing. This may be caused by room
noise and can be ignored.

The SA-4200™ amplifier’s inputs are configurable for two modes of operation, and its outputs for two modes of
operation.
INPUT MODES
The channel inputs can be connected in three different ways to achieve the following modes of operation.
Dual-Dual Mono Mode
For Dual-Dual Mono operation, all four channels operate independently of each other, with their input
attenuators controlling each respective input level. As a result, a signal at the input of channel A produces
an amplified signal at the output of channel A. Likewise, a signal at the input of channel B produces an
amplified signal at the output of channel B, and so on. The loudspeaker load is connected to the amplifier
output terminals matching the positive loudspeaker connection with the positive output terminal. Likewise,
the negative loudspeaker connection is matched with the negative output terminal. See OUTPUT MODES
below.

Bridge Mode
Amplifier channel A and B may bridged together to make a single output with a power rating equal to the
sum of both channel power ratings at twice the load rating of a single channel. In other words, bridging two
amplifiers rated for 200 watts into 4 ohms will produce 400 watts into 8 ohms. In Bridge Mode, the channels
operate at opposite polarity from each other so that one channel “pushes” and the other “pulls” equally. This
mode sends the input signal to channel A and the same signal with its polarity reversed to the channel B.
Connect the input signal to channel A input connector only and set the DUAL/BRIDGE Mode Switch (14) to
BRIDGE. Both channel level controls (A and B) MUST be used to control the signal level, and
set at the same position. The input level controls are detented so you can match these settings precisely.
The loudspeaker load is connected only to the designated positive (+) output terminals of the bridged
channels. For proper signal polarity, connect the positive (+) terminal of the loudspeaker system to the
positive (+) terminal of OUTPUT A; subsequently, connect the negative (-) terminal of the loudspeaker
system to the positive (+) terminal of OUTPUT B.
NEVER ground either side of the loudspeaker load cable when the amplifier is in Bridge Mode,
as both sides are “hot.” If an output patch panel is used, all connections must be isolated from each
other and from the panel. Using the LOW-Z output configuration, the minimum nominal load impedance in
Bridge Mode is 8 ohms; this is equivalent to driving both bridged channels at 4 ohms. Using the 70V output
configuration, the bridged output is 140V and the minimum nominal load impedance in Bridge Mode is 50
ohms; this is equivalent to driving both bridged channels at 25 ohms. Driving loads of lesser impedance may
activate the protective muting system. See OUTPUT MODES below.

NOTE: Regardless of operating mode, NEVER connect the amplifier outputs together.
CAUTION: Output voltages greater than 120 volts rms are available between the bridged terminals.
Class 3 wiring must be used in accordance with national and local codes to connect the loudspeaker
system.
WARNING: The loudspeaker output connections of this amplifier are hazardous when live and present a shock
hazard when they are energized. Take the following precautions:
1. Do not touch any bare wires that are connected to the loudspeaker output connectors.
2. Use insulated loudspeaker cables and touch-proof connectors on the loudspeakers.
3. Do not attempt to make connections to the output connectors or to loudspeaker connectors when the
amplifier is turned on.
4. Double check all connections and make sure there are no exposed wires or connectors before turning the
amplifier on.
5. Make sure there are no frayed cables or wires and that all connections are tight and secure every time before
turning the amplifier on.
6. External wiring connected to these terminals requires installation by an instructed person or the use of readymade leads or cords.

Example of a 70V constant-voltage distribution system:
Use of a 70 volt matching transformer is possible with a 140 volt system by connecting the tap that is rated for 1/4
power (or less) to the desired 70 volt tap. For example, a ceiling loudspeaker with a 70 volt input tapped for 20 watts
is to be used with a 140 volt constant-voltage system. The 140 volt system will need to be connected to the 5 watt
tap in order for the loudspeaker to produce 20 watts. If a 5 watt tap is not available, use the next lower tap.
CAUTION: Output voltages greater than 120 volts rms are available between the bridged terminals.
Class 3 wiring must be used in accordance with national and local codes to connect the loudspeaker
system.
