Page 10: Ornamental Inlays
Ornamental inlays The Performer m1000 comes with three ornamental inlays: in black, red and silver. They can be combined with the chosen color of the main front panel. A neodymium magnet holds the ornamental inlay in place. This allows easy exchange and gives you the unique opportunity to style your power amplifier. -

Page 14: Protection Circuits
The Performer m1000 has protection circuits against DC (direct current) voltage at the output and against overheating. DC Protection If DC is detected at the output, the Performer m1000 automatically switches off. DC voltage can be an indication for a defective power stage. The ProtectLED (3) on the front indicates that the protection circuit is activated and the power stage has been switched off. -
Page 15: Overheating Protection Circuit
The Performer m1000 is actively cooled with six temperature controlled fans. The noise of the fans does not exceed 19 dB – therefore the fans are inaudable. In the unlikely event of overheating the Performer m1000 will switch off at about 70° C at the heat sink and the Temp LED (2) on the front indicates the overheating. -

Power LED In standby the Power LED is dimly lit. If the Performer m1000 is in operation, the Power LED lights up brightly. If the Performer m1000 is off, e.g. the mains switch is off, the Power LED is off. -
