This manual contains information on using the P1500 and P3000 amplifiers. It is organized into three main sections. “Installation” covers the location and connection of the amplifier in the system. Like many precision components careful attention to the initial setup can yield dividends in higher performance and trouble-free use.
N S T A L L A T I O N LOCATION The P1500 and P3000 power transformer can generate a substantial magnetic field, so caution should be exercised in the placement of low level components such as a tape deck, mixer or mic preamp to avoid inducing noise in the low level circuitry.
Pin 2 = (+) Pin 3 = (–) Many popular mixers use unbalanced outputs and can be used with the Hafler amplifier. To minimize residual ground noise, we recommend using twisted pair cable or short cable lengths in this type of configuration.

OUTPUT CONNECTIONS The speaker output connectors are dual binding posts. These binding posts will directly accept 12 AWG wire or banana plugs and are spaced on 3/4" centers to accept dual banana plugs. MONOPHONIC USE For systems with high power requirements, the amplifiers can be configured for single channel bridged mono operation.
SHORT CIRCUIT PROTECTION Due to the self-protecting properties of the output power MOSFETs, there is no need for sonically degrading voltage and current limiting circuits. To protect the amplifier from problems which may occur in the speaker line there is an overload detection circuit. In the event of a short in the speaker load or cables, the speaker detection circuit will shut down that channel and light the front panel SHORT indicator.

FIELD SERVICE CONSIDERATIONS A primary focus during the design and development of the P1500 and P3000 was to ensure the dependability of the amplifiers. The use of lateral MOSFET output transistors and the low voltage trans• nova input stage combined with careful component selection for the circuit assembly made the reliability goals achievable.
CIRCUIT OPERATION trans• nova Implementation: +18V Positive Buffer, DC Positive Input Offset Integrator Buffer U2A, R11, C21, Level Adjust Balanced Signal R24 A, B Negative Input Negative Buffer Buffer Protection Switch, Soft Start Delay –18V The transistor Q1 is configured to operate as a switch which controls the current source, Q103, of the input differential amp, Q6 and Q7.
Output Short Protection Drive Signal Output Signal The Short detector monitors the Drive Signal and Output Signal levels and shuts down that channel when a shorted output condition is detected. Recovering from the Short protection requires turning the amplifier off to reset. The comparator U4B monitors the Drive Signal and goes low when the drive level is sufficient to clip the output stage.
To adjust the bias, disconnect the input and speakers and remove the jumper JW7. Connect an amp meter across the exposed pins. Adjust R136 to get a current reading of 100 mA for the P1500, 200 mA for the P3000. WARNING: Only a competent technician should attempt the following procedure.
amplifier. For a temporary adjustment when a signal generator and voltmeter are not available, use an FM tuner and tune it to an unused station as your signal source, and connect the output to the amplifier as described above. Connect the amplifier output to a small full range speaker.
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.
