GENERAL DF-series with DSP (DF1404 DSP, DF1408 DSP, DF2008 DSP, DF2804 DSP) are modern amplifiers for professional entertainers, who require maximum performance and sound quality on a limited budget. Amplifiers are designed for application in PA systems with high requirements for precise tuning of the parameters, but without the need for operative change.
DESIGN FEATURES Physical Design The amplifier is enclosed in a metal (steel) case of 88 mm (2U) height. The amplifier is designed to be standard rack-mounted (RACK 19"). Power Supply Unit All four channel of the amplifier share the same pulse power supply unit. Power Factor Correction (in DF2008 only) The amplifier has power supply with Power Factor Correction, which significantly...

FUNCTIONAL FEATURES Overload and Short-Circuit Protection Individual per each channel. This protective system becomes active in case of short- circuited output or overload caused by reduced load impedance. It disables the output signal of the respective channel for 0.5 second and then the amplifier gradually resumes its delivery.
FRONT PANEL 8 10 THERMAL – overheating alarm LED. Brightness depends on the temperature of the heat sink (See: Thermal Protection). POWER LED. LED goes off when the DC output protection system activated. CLIP – clip LEDs for Channels 1, 2, 3 and 4, respectively. They indicate: –...

CABLE REQUIREMENTS Input Cables Make sure to use only shielded cables whether balanced or unbalanced. Shielding, when properly grounded, protects a signal against external electrical interference. As a rule, unbalanced lines over 3 meters long are not acceptable. Greater distances require a balanced cable.
INPUT AND OUTPUT CONNECTORS Input Connectors Use XLR (male) connectors to connect to the amplifier inputs and XLR (female) connectors to line outputs. See the wiring on the figures below. XLR (female) XLR (male) Cold « – » Cold « – » Shield (Ground) Hot «...
RACK-MOUNTING REQUIREMENTS The amplifier is designed to fit a standard 19” rack. While mounting, make sure to provide unhindered air access to the front and rear sides of the rack. Fan direction is from front to back. It is not necessary to leave empty space above or below the amplifier. For stationary use, it will be enough to fix securely only the front panel of the amplifier to the rack.

AMPLIFIER OPERATION MODES The amplifier can operate in four-, three- and two-channel modes (respectively: each channel independently, the two channels in a bridge mode and the other two separately, two pairs of channels in a bridge mode). The amplifier has two input channels. Signals routing for four channels is performed by the DSP engine.
