Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of a Crest Audio Pro 200 Series power amplifier.
Designed for years of reliable operation under rigorous use, these power amplifiers offer the
sonic superiority and unsurpassed reliability for which Crest Audio is famous. Advanced
technology and extensive protection circuitry allow more efficient operation, especially when
working with difficult loads and power conditions.The Automatic Clip Limiting (ACL) circuit
protects drivers, maintains sonic integrity and ensures trouble-free operation into loads as
low as 2 Ohms.
Crest Audio's high efficiency design uses tunnel-cooled heat sinks and variable-speed DC fans
to maintain a lower overall operating temperature, resulting in longer output transistor life.
Pro 200 Series models 8200, 7200 and 5200 use Crest Audio's innovative Power Density cir-
cuitry and packaging.
Although these amplifiers are simple to operate and housed in ultra-strong steel chassis,
improper use can be dangerous.These are very high-powered amplifiers that can put out
high voltages and sizable currents at frequencies up to 30 kHz. Always use safe operating
techniques with these amplifiers.
