VOLTAiR – 120V Technology VOLTAiR – 120V Technology VOLTAiR is the synonym for our 120V Technology within the Professional Fidelity series. The audio signals are pro- cessed with an unequalled +/-60V DC, which corresponds to twice that of discrete operational amplifiers and four- times that of semiconductor operational amplifiers. -

Page 10: Ornamental Inlays
Ornamental inlays Ornamental inlays The Performer s1200 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
Protection circuits Protection circuits The Performer s1200 has protection circuits against DC (direct current) voltage at the output and against overheating. DC Protection If DC is detected at one of the outputs, the Performer s1200 automatically switches off. DC voltage can be an indi- cation for a defective power stage. -
Page 15: Overheating Protection Circuit
Protection circuits Overheating protection circuit The Performer s1200 is actively cooled with six temperature controlled fans that usually do nothing at all, because 90 % of the heat is passively dissipated via massive heat sinks. Should it nevertheless become really loud for a really long time, the processor-controlled fans remain virtually inaudible at only 19 dB (A). -
