Introduction; Features; Included Items; Related Manuals And Software - Yamaha XMV4280 Owner's Manual

Thank you for your purchase of the Yamaha XMV4280, XMV4140, XMV4280-D or XMV4140-D power
amplifier. Please read through this manual carefully before beginning use, so that you will be able to take full
advantage of your power amplifier's superlative features and enjoy trouble-free operation for years to come.
After you have read the manual, keep it in a safe place for reference when needed.
NOTE
• When there are differences in the specifications of the XMV4280/XMV4280-D and the XMV4140/XMV4140-D, this manual will
use curly brackets { } to enclose information that applies only to the XMV4140/XMV4140-D.
(Example: 280W {140W}).
• Unless otherwise specified, illustrations are taken from the XMV4280/XMV4280-D.
• For the remainder of this manual, the XMV4280, XMV4140, XMV4280-D and XMV4140-D are referred to as "XMV" collectively.
• In this book, the matrix processor MTX series units are reffered to as "MTX" collectively.

Features

The XMV is a multi-channel power amplifier with the follow-
ing features.
• Both high-impedance and low-impedance connec-
tions are supported
Both high-impedance connections to 70V/100V lines and
4Ω/8Ω low-impedance connections are supported. A rear
panel DIP switch allows this setting to be specified for every
two channels.
• Newly-developed "Double Power mode"
The newly-developed "Double Power mode" doubles the
amplifier output of each channel when low-impedance con-
nections are used.
* The number of available channels will be halved.
• Settings can be made via application software
Although settings such as mute on/off and attenuator values
can be edited from the panel of the amplifier itself, you can
use an MTX series matrix processor and computer to edit the
settings of multiple XMV units.
• Support for the newly-developed "YDIF" digital
audio transmission format
(XMV4280/XMV4140 only)
This allows up to 16 channels of audio and word clock to be
transmitted and received via an Ethernet cable.
This model can receive four channels of audio signals via
YDIF.
• Dante network for large-scale systems
(XMV4280-D/XMV4140-D only)
This enables audio signal transfer over long-distance with
Dante equipped devices (such as the MTX5-D) with stan-
dard Ethernet cables.
• High efficiency
The newly-developed output circuits allows high efficiency.
