470 only has

inputs 1-4.

channel 1, a single input channel connection can supply

all amplifier channels with the same signal before their

level controls. This is useful in multi-zone applications

where each zone level can be controlled separately and

only one input connection is needed.

80Hz Low Cut Filter

Each input channel has an internally se-

lectable 12dB/octave 80Hz high pass filter. This filter is

useful when driving low quality 70V step-down transform-

ers which typically saturate (high distortion and low im-

pedance) at low frequencies. The amplifier is factory

configured with this filter bypassed.

To enable the 80Hz high pass filter for a given

channel, a qualified service technician can remove the in-

put panel and reposition one of six jumpers labeled "HPF"

on the top circuit board assembly, each near their respec-

tive channel's level control. When the filter is engaged,

the respective channel's frequency response will be -3dB

at 80Hz, -12dB at 40Hz, and -24dB at 20Hz.

7.5

Input Level Controls

The Input Level controls attenuate the

input signals from 0dB to -infinity (OFF). For best head-

room performance, it is recommended that the Input Level

controls always be operated at full level (0dB attenuation).

Each channel's level is controlled by it's respective Input

Level control regardless of being in Independent or Paral-

lel mode. However, when a Normal/Bridge switch is de-

pressed, the odd numbered channel's level control will

control both the even and odd numbered channels.

7.6

Normal/Bridge Switch

The Normal/Bridge switch is used to operate two

adjacent channels (1 and 2, 3 and 4, 5 and 6 on the PF670)

in bridge mode to drive 140V lines. Pressing a Normal/

Bridge switch in (Bridge mode) disables the even-num-

bered channel's input connector and level control and in-

ternally routes the odd numbered channel's input signal to

the next higher even-numbered channel with the phase in-

verted 180 degrees. The odd-numbered channel level then

controls both channel levels equally. The output of two

bridged channels is then taken from the two (+) output

screw terminals of the respective channels to provide twice

the power at 140 volts.

7.7

AC Inlet

Powerflex amplifiers can be configured by the cus-

tomer for operation at either 115VAC or 230VAC mains.

Switching from one to the other simply requires the fol-

lowing steps:

1.) Unplug the amplifier from the wall and re-

move the power cord from the rear of the amplifier.

2.) Using a small screwdriver as a lever, unlatch

the fuse holder in the AC inlet and remove it.

3.) Remove the voltage selection insert and ro-

tate until the new nominal mains voltage level indication

(115 or 230) is on top and properly oriented for reading.

4.) Replace the voltage selection insert in the AC

inlet, making sure that it is plugged in all the way.
