Optional System Configurations; Multi Amp Throughput - Krell Industries Five-Channel Power Amplifier KAV-1500 Instructions For Use Manual

Optional System Configurations
The KAV-1500 can be reconfigured for either Multi Amp Throughput (MAT) or bridged
operation.
IMPORTANT
Removing the cover to reconfigure for MAT or for bridged operation is the ONLY
instance you are authorized to remove the cover of ANY Krell component without
voiding your Warranty. For more information on product limitations and restrictions, see
Warranty, on page 21.
Before Reconfiguring for MAT or Bridged Operation
Read the following important safety instructions before you attempt to reconfigure your
amplifier for either MAT or bridged operation:
1. Unplug the power cord. Unplug the AC power cord (23) from AC power.
2. Avoid the power supply. After removing the screws (see instructions below) and
the cover, locate and stay aware of the location of the power supply (round, silver
structures behind the amplifier front panel). Avoid making contact with that area of
the amplifier.
3. Remove jewelry. Rings, necklaces, bracelets, and other pieces of metal jewelry
can conduct an electrical charge. Consider removing them before attempting any
reconfiguration.
4. Always replace cover, Make sure the amplifier's cover is properly replaced and
secured by all 14 cover screws before resuming operation.
IMPORTANT
Operating the amplifier without the cover properly replaced and secured may
void your warranty.
MULTI AMP THROUGHPUT
Multi Amp Throughput (MAT) is an internal connection option for the KAV-1500 that
lets you send the same music signal to all amplifier channels using one balanced or
single-ended connection. MAT reduces installation complexity and cabling requirements
in systems containing multiple amplifiers.
