  • Page 3 Model No. _______________________________ Serial No. _______________________________ Date of purchase: _________________________ Thank you for selecting a Legacy Audio System. Please take a few moments to read this brief manual to insure maximum benefit from your electronic system.
  • Page 4 To properly install your new Legacy Amplifier in your audio system, follow these brief steps. 1. Location To provide for adequate ventilation you should allow at least a couple of inches on each side of the amplifier. Because of its large power supply, the amplifier produces a local magnetic field that may be picked up by low level circuitry such as preamplifiers, turntables, and the like.
  • Page 5 3. Input Connections Signal input from your preamplifier is made through one gold plated RCA (unbalanced) or one XLR (balanced) type connector per channel. Do not use both RCA and XLR connectors at the same time as they will load each other improperly.
  • Page 6 If you wish to clean your PowerBloc2, use diluted ammonia based window cleaner. Do not use any abrasive cleaners or chemical solvents. Take care not to damage the aluminum faceplate, since aluminum is a medium hardness metal and can be scratched by the careless use of tools during the installation.
  • Page 7 The Legacy PowerBloc2 is the most exquisite 2 channel amplifier we have built. A balanced interconnection is provided to take advantage of the greater noise rejection it provides. Differential voltage gain throughout provides exceptional rejection of external noise and contributes to the inherent DC stability of the external noise and contributes to the inherent DC stability of the circuit.
  • Page 8 The current stage is capable of producing peak currents in excess of 90 Amperes. This offers a degree of linearity and speed which is not matched by other designs when producing only a fraction of this current. This is achieved by the implementation of several distinct circuit features. The bias section is designed to produce a precision transition with no abrupt changes in distortion or output impedance.
  • Page 9 Bandwidth: CD to -3dB @ 100 kHz Distortion: < .05% (actual type .025) Gain: 26dBPower Supply: 1700VA toroidal transformer and eight 10,000 uF 100 volt capacitors Noise: More than 100 dB referenced to rated output. Input Impedance: 50k Ohms unbalanced Output Impedance: 0.08 ohms from 20Hz to 20 kHz Slew Rate: 50 Volts/microseconds Rated Power: 300 Watts/channel, 20Hz to 20 kHz, into 8 ohms.
