2. POWER LED INDICATOR
This LED illuminates when the power is turned “ON”.
3. CLIP (PEAK) LED INDICATORS
These LEDs illuminate if any section of the power
amplifier’s output are within 3DB of clipping. Occasional
blinking of the LEDs are acceptable, but if they remain on
more than intermittently you should turn down either the
power amplifier’s level controls or reduce the output level
of the preceding component to avoid audible distortion.

4. SIGNAL LED INDICATORS
These LEDs illuminate to confirm the presence of an input
signal greater than 100 mV at that channel of the amplifier

5. LEVEL CONTROLS
These control the level of signal coming into each channel.
The actual voltage gain of the amplifier is shown in dB.
Turn these controls counterclockwise if the peak LEDs
illuminate steadily (indicating too strong an input signal).

9. AC VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH:
Before plugging in the power cord, check to see that the
unit is set for the proper voltage for your area: ~115V
(60Hz) or ~230V (50Hz). A cover plate is provided to
ensure that this switch is not accidently reset or tampered
with between uses.
