Studio R exclusive Burn-in: Every Studio R amplifier is in-factory tested for three 3-hour cycles at full power in a high-temperature oven. It is cooled and tested again at every interval. This exclusive process in Brazil is the only internationally proven way of finding components of a system which could deteriorate prematurely within the equipment lifetime.

DANGER: THE OUTPUTS OF THIS AMPLIFIER CAN PRODUCE LETHAL VOLTAGE LEVELS. NEVER MAKE CONNECTIONS WHILE THE DEVICE IS ON. Wait for at least 1 minute after the shutoff in order to carry out modifications in your connections. WARNING: THIS EQUIPMENT IS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING HIGH SOUND PRESSURE LEVELS WHEN CONNECTED TO SPEAKERS AND SPEAKER SETS.

4.1 Impedance sensor: All Studio R amplifiers are fitted with a system to assess the type of load on its output. On an excess load, this limits the maximum output current without causing any severe distortions.
This type of installation is quite used successfully in bars, night clubs, churches, etc. For example, The Z.500 operates as a 30Volts line amplifier. In this way, you can connect up to five 15 watts speakers using Studio R transformers model AML...
MANUAL AND THE RELEVANT STANDARDS RELATED TO YOUR INDUSTRY. 9 – WARRANTY:: Studio R provides the purchaser of any Z Series amplifier with a warranty against defects on the components and assembly for a 3-year*** time as of the purchasing date (***Valid for Brazil.
