itself. Verify that it's not a fault external to the amplifier by disconnecting all cables (except the power cable) from the amplifier. If the
protect LED is no longer lit, the problem is most likely a bad speaker cable or defective speaker. Testing with a set of headphones
O/D
can help to narrow down the problem, as the headphone signal is derived post-power amp using a frequency compensated, cabinet
emulation network.

LIMIT LED:

This amber LED indicates that the power amp is nearing maximum power and is entering the soft clip/limit output

tube emulation mode. Soft clip/limit output tube emulation mode mimics many of the desirable characteristics of tube amp output
stage overdrive while eliminating the common solid state clipping artifacts. There is approximately 6dB of range on this circuit, driving
beyond this, of course, will cause gradual output stage clipping. It's acceptable for this amplifier to operate in output stage overdrive

IEC POWER INLET:

OPERATING POWER REQUIREMENTS:

that automatically adjusts to line voltages between 100-120V and 220-240V, 50 or 60Hz. The power supply is internally monitored
by supervisory protection circuits and thus contains a non-user replaceable fuse that opens in the unlikely event of a major failure.
The amplifier is designed to be use with grounded or earthed power, meaning that the chassis is always maintained at ground/earth
potential even in the event of a gross failure within (or external to) the amplifier. Never remove the grounding/earthing pin from the
power plug, or alter the power cable.

COOLING FAN:

The SUBWAY WD-800 incorporates a low speed, high reliability cooling fan which allows it to drive difficult
loads (including 2 ohms) at very high duty cycles. Be sure this fan inlet is not blocked or the amplifier's protection circuits shutting the
amplifier down due to a thermal fault condition. This quiet, low noise fan will always run at a low speed, the air flows into the chassis
from the back and out through the front and side slot vents.

SPEAKER OUTPUTS:

set to the 2 ohm position), meaning either 4 x 8 ohm cabinets or 2 x 4 ohm cabinets. The amplifier incorporates a pair of SpeakOn™
NL4FC connectors (wired in parallel) that mate with either NL2MP or NL4MP plugs.
Cables using NL-2 plugs contain only 1+/1- terminals and will always be correctly wired for use with the amplifier, but cables using NL4
connectors come with different wiring configurations. If using cables with NL-4 connectors, they may be constructed with standard 2
wire cable which must be wired 1+ to 1+ and 1- to 1-. If the cable contains 4 wires, that's ok because terminals 2+ and 2- which are
