    Note: Power ratings are specified at 120VAC line voltages. Unconditionally stable, driving any reactive or capacitive load. The M2600 power amplifier draws large amounts of current from the AC line with continuous sine wave test- Turn On Delay: ing. Accurate measurement of power requires a steady 3-5 seconds and stable AC supply.
  • Page 6: Troubleshooting Tips

    Troubleshooting Tips-output failures After a catastrophic failure, it is likely that some of the supply fuses will be blown. Check and replace any fuses on the 129, 130, 133, and 171 boards. Short across the Left most lead of R1 to the right most lead of R2 on the 133 board to short out the two 15W inrush resistors (see the diagram on the next page).

  • Page 8: Reliability Verification

    Reliability Verification Procedure After the unit has been repaired, the following should be done to assure long term reliable operation. If a distortion analyzer is present, distortion specifications should be verified. See the previous page for the 170 and 186 boards with some test points noted. 1.
  • Page 9 9. Place the amplifier in bridge mode and connect 4Ω loading to the bridge outputs (across both “+” output binding posts). The 4Ω dummy load should have a minimum power rating of 2000W. Slip some card stock between the heatsink-outlets and chassis sides to temporarily restrict the airflow.
  • Page 10: Circuit Theory

    Circuit Theory Much of the circuitry in the M•2600 we hope is self explanatory from the schematics. This section will explain the unique circuits and architecture. Examples in this section will refer to Channel 1 for circuitry that is identical on both channels. INPUT CIRCUITRY The signal path begins with the INPUT BOARD (055-131-00).
  • Page 11 Most amplifiers use negative feedback to reduce this problem (creating a few more in the process). Mackie FR Series amplifiers take a different approach. By using two complementary “mirror image” front end circuits, any distortion caused by non-linear transistor curves is effectively canceled out in the bias string, without feedback! Another design feature unique to Mackie FR Series Amplifiers is the Baker Clamp.
  • Page 12 SOA protection There are two SOA detectors in the M-2600: One that monitors steady state output stage dissipation and one that monitors transient high current events. Both detectors need to monitor the output stage current. A voltage, representing output stage current, is derived by first sampling the voltage drop across the output transistor emitter resistors.
  • Page 13 via R33 and R8 and compared against the 5V reference at U3A. If the AC line voltage falls to around 60% of nominal (around 70VAC), the output of U3A goes low, resetting the mute and short monostables via D5 and D12. If the +15V supply fails, D3 and D4 bias the U3A inputs such that the amplifier is also muted.
