2 Channel (Stereo) Mode
In this mode, the amplifier's two channels operate fully independent of each other. Each
signal enters the unit and is amplified separately.
Parallel-Mono Mode
In this mode, a single input signal (connected to channel 1) is connected to the two output
channels. The output terminals of the two channels are configured in parallel using an
internal relay. The (single) load is connected either to the output of channel 1 or to that of
channel 2 (as if in stereo). While the total output of the amplifier remains the same and the
output voltage level is also the same as in stereo operation, the minimum impedance that
can be connected is reduced by half because the current capability is doubled. Only the
Channel 1 attenuator is active. The Channel 2 attenuator should be turned down to zero.
This mode is useful when identical loudspeakers are to be operated with the same power.
IMPORTANT: When connecting speaker cabinets in parallel, always use all the contacts
in both SPEAKON connectors. If not, this can cause permanent damage to the connectors
and considerably reduce performance.
Bridged Mono Mode
In this mode, a single input (connected to channel 1) is connected to the two output
channels that have been 'Bridged" together. Each output channel processes the signal, but
the polarity of channel 2 is reversed. The (single) load is connected between the two
positive channel outputs using a suitably connected SPEAKON connector. While the total
output of the amplifier remains the same, both the available output voltage and the
minimum impedance that can be connected are doubled, as compared with stereo
operation. Only Channel 1 is active. A signal feeding Channel 2 will have no effect on the
output.
WARNING! In Mono-Bridge mode RMS output voltages as high as 230 V. Wiring to
the speaker loads must conform to NEC Class 3 safety standards or its equivalent. All
customer specific cables should only be manufactured by qualified personnel.
WARNING! Terminals marked with
these terminals/connectors requires installation by trained personnel, or pre-
manufactured cables.
