Guidelines for speaker systems WARNING! This amplifier is intended to drive passive loudspeakers. These may produce a sound pressure level which can be harmful for humans and animals when used incorrectly and/or without protection. Possible permanent hearing loss may occur when humans or animals are exposed to high sound pressure levels for a longer period of time.

Introduction Thank you for purchasing this Devine amplifier. To make sure you use this product as intended and for optimal performance and protection of this device, Devine recommends you read this user manual. The Devine D-series amplifiers consist of several high quality power amplifiers. The D-series are digital class D power amplifiers, with a digital amplifier circuit installed.
Use of the amplifier The Devine D-series amplifiers are built to last. To be able to get the most out of your speaker system, it is recommended to read this section thoroughly, to become familiar with all the options and features of this amplifier.
Devine does not recommend to connect a signal source without clear volume setting display (such as an Any information and illustrations shown in this user manual are subject to change without further notice.
The Bridge output makes use of the two amplifier channels and combines its power to one signal output. This makes it possible to use all of the power from one D-series amplifier to drive one full range speaker or subwoofer (when used correctly – explained later on in this user manual).
Doing so may cause damage to your subwoofer. It is however possible to use an external 19 inch crossover, a D-series amplifier and a subwoofer without internal filter, connected in this particular order. This way, any incoming signal must go through the crossover first, thus removing any high frequencies from the signal (these will be sent to different outputs for your fullrange speakers).
Ventilation and cooling D-series amplifiers from Devine can perform all day or night without cooling-down time. Thanks to large conventional heat sinks and fan cooling, the amplifiers will not overheat in normal environment conditions. To make sure fresh, cool air is delivered to the amplifier and hot air is blown away from the fan, there are ventilation holes perforated in the housing of the amplifier.

Technical specifications The Devine D-series amplifiers (D-200, D-400 and D-600) share almost the same electronic circuit. The differences in the series are mostly the power ratings and in addition to this, the larger power supplies installed in the devices. As the technical details are nearly identical, the table below describes the specifications and values for all amplifiers next to each other.
