Power Base Series Power Amplifiers Page 9 2 Installation Always remove power from the unit and turn the level controls off (fully counterclockwise) when making or breaking connections. This reduces the chance of blasts that can cause loudspeaker damage.
Power Base Series Power Amplifiers Page 10 2.3 Input Sensitivity Adjustment The input sensitivity switch inside the amplifier is set to 0.775 volts at the factory. It can be changed to 1.4 volts or a voltage gain of 26 dB as follows: 1. Turn off and unplug the amplifier from the AC source.
Power Base Series Power Amplifiers Page 11 3.3.1 ODEP Crown invented ODEP to keep the amplifier working under demanding conditions and to increase output efficiency. To do this, Crown established a rigorous pro- gram to measure each transistor’s safe operating area (SOA).
Power Base Series Power Amplifiers Page 12 The unit should never output heavy common-mode cur- rent unless its circuitry is damaged. Activating drive protection helps prevent further damage. 3.3.4 Transformer Thermal Protection All Power Base amplifiers have transformer thermal protection.
