Power Rating: Less than 0.025% total harmonic distortion at any power level up to 255 watts continuous average power per channel into 8 ohms at any frequency between 20 Hz and 20 kHz with both channels driven. IM Distortion (SMPTE): Less than 0.007% from 1 watt to 255 watts into 8 ohms Typical THD at 255 watts into 8 ohms: 1 kHz-0.
INTRODUCTION The Hafler DH-500 is a two channel audio power amplifier designed to the very highest performance stan- dards. It is available as a kit, or factory assembled. Its power rating of 255 watts per channel is very conservative, and it can deliver appreciably higher powers into impe- dances below the rated 8 ohms.
INSTALLATION The DH-500 may be installed out of sight in many appli- cations, where its power can be controlled by the AC switching of a preamplifier control unit.
If the manufacturer of your speakers recommends a specific fuse value for their protection, you should obtain 3AG type fuses of that value and substitute them for the ones supplied. The speaker fuses are included in the amplifier design solely for speaker protection.
number of specialty speaker cables preferred by perfec- tionists. If you have 4 ohm speakers, larger wire is recom- mended than for the typical 8 ohm speakers, too.
4. Allow the connection to cool undisturbed. Remember that the connection is made by the solder, not by mechanically attaching the wire to the terminal. Usually the wire is looped through the lug and crimped in place, but some prefer to just place it through the hole and rely on the stiffness of the wire to hold it while soldering.
MECHANICAL ASSEMBLY 1 0 For security in shipping, the power transformer and the amplifier module have been fastened to the chassis. Remove the chassis cover, the inner front panel and the larger front plate, and set these aside. Be particularly careful in handling the amplifier module.
90 10 11 12 Selec t the plastic encased relay, the longer L-shaped mounting bracket, and 2 sets of hard- ware. Insert the screws through the bracket with the bracket foot pointing away from the lugs at the opposite end of the relay. ‘ lighten this hardware se- curely, but do not risk breaking the plastic.
There are two gauges of wire supplied with the kit. For While excessive heat or careless “ scrubbing ” with the iron connections which pass substantial current, the heavier can lift the circuit foil from the board, more people tend to wire is used.
40 0 Prepare two 9 ” white wires. Connect one to eyelet 5 2 q Select the spade lug and connect it to the free end of #8 of the left board. (S). Connect the other to the white wire from LT lug 6. Place this wire to the eyele t #6. (S). Bend these toward the bottom, and left, and twist it lightly together with the green wire twist them together.
62 0 Prepare a 3 ” white wire. Connect one end to RY lug #4. (S). Connect the other end to red output termi- nal LR. (S). 63 [7 Prepare another 3 ” white wire. Connect one end to RY lug #6. (S). Connect the other end to output terminal RR. (S). 64 0 Prepare a 16 ” green wire.
80 0 Select the triad of black, red and yellow wires from under the module. These will be connected to the right end of the terminal strip, and to prevent the heat from the large resistors from meltin.
97 0 Select the .Ol mfd disc capacitor and trim each lead t o 3/4". Strip two 1/2" lengths of insulation from a piece of heavy wire, and install these on the capacitor leads. Connect one lead to DB lug #l. (S-3). Connect the other lead to DB lu g #4.
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION The DH-500 amplifier components have been selected to pro- tect against failure, and all parts are operated conservatively to assure unaltered performance and proper operation for many years.

The DH-500 Power Amplifier has been carefully en- gineered to provide many years of use without requiring any maintenance or servicing. Factory assembled units are subjected to many physical and electrical tests before shipment. The amplifier module assemblies of kit units are similarly tested to meet perfor- mance specifications prior to packing.
Un punto importante, dopo l’acquisto del dispositivo (o anche prima di acquisto) è quello di leggere il manuale. Dobbiamo farlo per diversi motivi semplici:
