    Connections' before making connections to the PA-30 outputs. 9. Mains Power Cord The inlet for AC power to the PA-30 is a two-prong ungrounded plug (rear panel mounted). The PA-30 requires 120/230 volts AC at 50/60 Hz. It draws 8 watts at idle, and 130 watts at full rated output.

  • Page 8: Output Connections

    Connection and Installation Output Connections Each channel of the PA-30 will drive a minimum load impedance of 8 ohms. Connecting a load of lower impedance will result in current limiting and may trigger the Protection circuits to shut down the amplifier.
  • Page 9: Theory Of Operation

    The PA-30 rear panel includes a switch that selects either normal stereo mode or a special mode termed BTL (Balanced Transformerless). The setting of this switch determines the maximum power available to the load from the PA-30, and also decisively affects how the load is connected to the amplifier.
