Q6A and Q8A models include a switchable voltage power supply that accepts either 110-120VAC or 220-240VAC line power. Selection is made through the two-position Voltage Select Switch on the rear panel. In addition there is an IEC AC Input socket and two position rocker Power Switch.
Both models are fitted with a 50 watt high efficiency power amplifier with external heatsink. Ensure that the heatsink is not obstructed and that adequate airflow can circulate around it to ensure safe and reliable operation.
The amplifier accepts either balanced or unbalanced signals, through a detachable Phoenix-style connector or a single RCA connector. Nominal sensitivity of the Balanced input is +4dBu and -10dBu for the unbalanced input. A rotary Gain Control is provided to attenuate the volume.
Both models are fitted with 4 threaded inserts on the rear for attaching the supplied mounting bracket. Access to the mounting points is gained by removing the four screws and the blank cover plate. There is also a threaded insert for attachment of a seismic restraint tether.
