9 Clip limiter Description When the audio signal drives the amp 's output circuit beyond its power capability , it clips, flattening the peaks of the waveform. The clip limiter detects this and quickly reduces the gain to minimize the amount of overdrive.
10 Input filter Description The low-frequency (LF) filter rolls off signals below either 30 Hz or 50 Hz. This improves bass performance by limiting sub-audio cone motion, making more power available for the speakers' rated frequency range. The filter settings for each channel are controlled individually through the DIP switch settings shown.
11 Parallel input mode Description The "Parallel Input" switches let you operate the amplifier in parallel mode, delivering the same signal to two channels without using a Y-cable. Each channel drives its own speaker load, with independent gain, filtering, and clip limiting.
12 FEA TURES & SETUP CARACTERÍSTICAS Y AJUSTES CARACTÉRISTIQUES ET LEUR UTILISA TION AUSST A TTUNG & EINSTELLUNGEN Branching to other amps In addition to parallel mode, you can parallel the inputs in bridged mono mode to carry the signal to additional amplifiers through the unused ex tr a input jacks.
13 FEA TURES & SETUP Bridge mono mode Description Bridged mono mode combines the power of two amp lifier channels (Channels 1 & 2, and/or 3 & 4) into one speaker load, resulting in twice the voltage swing, four times the peak power , and approximately three times the sustained power of a single channel.
14 FEA TURES & SETUP CARACTERÍSTICAS Y AJUSTES CARACTÉRISTIQUES ET LEUR UTILISA TION AUSST A TTUNG & EINSTELLUNGEN Bridge mono mode (continued) BRIDGED-MONO PRECAUTIONS: This mode puts a high demand on the amplifier and speaker , Excessive clipping may cause protective muting or speaker damage.
15 FEA TURES & SETUP What are the differences among Stereo, Parallel Input, and Bridge Mono modes? Stereo mode This is the "normal" way of using the amplifier , in which each channel is fully independent.
16 FEA TURES & SETUP Bridge Mono mode This mode combines the full power capabilities of both channels into a single speaker system. The amplifier internally re-configures so that both channels operate as a unit.

23 OPERA TION AC power switch Before applying power , check all connections and turn down the gain controls. The "soft start" sequence starts with the POWER indicator LED at half brightness.
24 Security panel After setting the gain controls, you can install the security panel to prevent tampering and accidental misadjustment. Installing the security panel 1. Use a 9/64" or 3.5 mm hex key to back the screw out several turns. 2. Slide the right end of the security panel just under the screw head.
25 OPERA TION Fan cooling TThe fan varies speed automatically to maintain safe internal temperatures and minimize noise. Keep the front and rear vents clear to allow full air flow . Hot air exhausts out the front of the amp so it does not heat the interior of the rack.

29 TROUBLESHOOTING Problem: no sound Indication: POWER indicator not lit • Check the AC plug. • Confirm that the AC outlet works by plugging in another device. If too many amplifiers are used on one outlet, the building's circuit breaker may trip and shut off power .

31 • This could be caused by a faulty speaker or loose connection. Check the wiring and try another speaker . • The signal source may be clipping. Keep the amplifier gain controls at least halfway up so that the source does not have to be overdriven.
32 Problem: hiss • Unplug the amplifier input to confirm that the hiss is coming from the source or a device upstream; erratic or popping noises indicate an electronic fault in the offending unit.
33 INNER WORKINGS An impressive amount of technology is packed "under the hood" of a DCA Series amplifier . Thousands of watts of power flow inches away from state-of-the-art low noise inputs. Precise circuit layout and thorough protection assure that all of this activity occurs smoothly and safely .
34 High Performance Audio . High speed power transistors convert this DC power into the full range audio output which drives the speakers. High-current design and special dual-sense output feedback corrects errors on both sides of the speaker terminals, improving damping and control of speaker motion.
