  • Page 16 Temperature Hot The temperature of the 993’s heatsink is constantly measured by a sensor. If the temperature of the heatsink is too high a warning will be given before shutdown at excessive temperatures. Common causes of high heatsink temperatures are plac- ing the amplifier in direct sunlight, obstruction of airflow to the heatsink, sustained heavy drive for very long periods of time or very low impedance load.

    TAS link has a bus remote line (GPI) allowing equipment from other manufacturers to be powered on/off by a Trilogy pre-amp, or allow the 993 to be turned on by another system.
