Carry/protection handle
Both handles can be used to carry the amplifier,
they also act as protection for the front panel. If so
desired they can be removed (by removing the
screws behind the front panel) for fixed installations,
or racks where the front covers are to shallow.
2.
Input level attenuators
These controls are used to alter the signal level
entering the amplifier. They are calibrated in dB to
help set up active loudspeaker systems or cut down
unwanted noise from the input signal.
(See page 7).
3.
