MOSFET Devices ® HAFLER is one of the few manufacturers in the sound community to utilize MOSFET devices in both the power supply and output stages. MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor) devices offer several important inherent advantages over the 30 year old technology of bi-polar design. These advantages include: thermal stability, fast switching speed, ultra low output impedance and wide bandwidth linearity.

Kapton® formers. Although this material is very resistant to heat, any heat generated by the transducer is "trapped" on the copper voice coil windings. HAFLER uses aluminum voice coil formers because aluminum acts like a "heat sink" and helps dissipate heat away from the voice coil. This allows winding high temperature copper wire in multiple layers for improved efficiency.

In this type of anechoic environment, the subwoofer will tend to experience minimal "Boundary Loading" effects. For studio installations, HAFLER recommends experimenting with different locations within the studio that minimizes rattles or vibration of other equipment. You can fire the subwoofer downward (FIG. 1) or fire the subwoofer directly facing forward (FIG.
INPUT SWITCH The unbalanced input uses a conventional RCA phone jack. Move the input switch to RCA UNBALANCED to use this jack. The balanced input jack is an XLR plug. The XLR jack is connected according to the IEC and AES standard. Move the input switch to XLR BALANCED to use this jack.
P E R A T I O N AUTO TURN-ON / SLEEP MODE The TRM10s/TRM12s subwoofers automatically turn on when they sense an input signal. When the signal being fed to the TRM10s/TRM12s is turned off, the subwoofer's amplifier will turn off and go into "sleep mode." This feature eliminates the inconvenience of operating a mechanical switch.
PHASE CONTROL The Phase Control switches allow the TRM10s/TRM12s to be acoustically aligned with other speakers in your system. 0˚, -90˚, -180˚, or -270˚ degrees of phase shift at 80Hz can be selected using DIP switches 2, 3, and 4. For 0˚ degrees of phase shift, leave all three switches in the OFF (up) position.
AC LINE The TRM10s/TRM12s operate from a 115 VAC/60Hz power line. The TRM10sCE/TRM12sCE operate from a 230 VAC 50/60Hz power line. Connection is made by a 16 gauge, IEC Type 320, grounded line cord. For safety considerations only a properly grounded (earthed) receptacle should be used.

TRM10 UNCTIONAL Input circuit The stereo input signals are connected to the amplifier through balanced XLR connectors J8 and J1, or unbalanced RCA connector TP2. Unbalanced operation can be selected with switch DS1, which grounds the RCA shell through R37. Input buffers U1 and U10 provide a stable input impedance, dominated by R10, R4, R42, and R32.
Class-G Trans•ana Amplifier The transistor Q8 is configured as a switch, which controls the current source Q5, of the input differential amplifier Q11 and Q12. If the power On/Off, Signal Sensing, and Thermal Protection circuits have all stopped pulling to -15V, the turn-on process begins, and the voltage at the emitter of O8 slowly ramps up to zero Volts according to the charging time of soft...
Power On/Off Circuit The power on/off circuit is designed to turn the amplifier on slowly and off quickly. When AC power is initially applied to the subwoofer, AC signals on the secondary of the power transformer are negatively rectified through CR2 and CR7 into peak holding capacitor C31, and divided by R19 and R20.
Qualified Service Personnel Only CIRCUIT CALIBRATION Bias: The bias control establishes the quiescent Class AB output current of the amplifier. The bias should not need readjustment from the factory setting: however, if the amplifier is repaired and the output devices have been changed, calibrating the bias is necessary.
Some states do not allow limitations on the length of an implied warranty, so this limitation may not apply. No person is authorized to assume for Hafler any other liability in connection with the sale of the product.
