2. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on the purchase of your new EAW
Commercial power amplifier. You now own one of the
finest professional audio products available - the result of
exceptional engineering and meticulous craftsmanship. Please
read these instructions to get the maximum performance from
your new power amplifier.
Each EAW Commercial power amplifier is intended for
professional use. The construction, components, and hardware
have been designed to provide robust, reliable performance
for its intended application. Please ensure that you fully
understand its proper installation and operation before use.
The CAZ series amplifiers are designed for continuous duty
in speech, music, paging and sound reinforcement applications
in churches, schools, offices, arenas, hotel meeting rooms,
convention centers, recreation facilities and other venues
demanding high performance, flexible features, and rugged
dependability.
A rear panel low-cut switch allows you to remove low
frequencies (below 30 Hz), and a clip-eliminator allows extra
protection for your speakers by preventing the amplifier from
being overloaded.
The amplifier can operate in stereo, dual-mono, or bridged
mono.
The outputs are screw terminals that accept bare wire or
spade terminals.
There are screw terminal inputs, and combination inputs,
capable of accepting balanced XLR, 1/4" TRS, or unbalanced
1/4" TS connections from line-level sources. Two front panel
level controls allow adjustment of the input signals.
The front panel has a rocker power switch with a power
LED, and each channel has a signal-present LED and an
overload LED.
The amplifier output stage is fully protected against
permanent damage caused by overloading, shorts, and extreme
temperatures.
The front panel incorporates holes for rack mounting, and
it will take up two rack spaces. There are two handles fitted on
the front panel for easy transporting.

UNPACKING
You should visually inspect the outside of the shipping carton
and note any damage on the shipping bill. After unpacking,
if you find concealed damage, save the packing materials for
the carrier's inspection, notify the carrier immediately, and
file a shipping damage claim. Although EAW Commercial
will help in any way possible, it is always the responsibility
of the receiving party to file any shipping damage claim. The
carrier will help prepare and file this claim.
Keep your receipt in a safe place. This is required as proof
if the amplifier ever needs warranty service.
