    Power Reduction Circuit (PRC) and Impedance Sensing There are two PRC circuits in the E4-75: one for channels A & B and one for channels B & C. When the amplifier is to be used with 4 ohm speakers (or bridged mono into 8 ohms) or if you want to reduce the maximum power to protect the speakers, then the PRC can be selected via the switches on the rear panel.
  • Page 9: Outputs

    The amplifier is designed to operate with fully balanced equipment and ground loops or loss of performance may be experienced if connected to unbalanced sources. If it is unavoidable however, the following wiring should be used. The cable should still be twin core plus screen. Pin 1 - Screen - connected to the chassis of the unbalanced equipment - or left disconnected at the unbalanced end.

  • Page 11: Switching On

    Operation SWITCHING ON At ‘switch-on’ the protection circuit will initially activate whilst the circuits stabilise. Assuming no faults are detected after a few seconds, the red A/P LED will go off. PANEL CONTROLS AND INDICATORS Level controls These are analogue controls allowing precise level settings. Note that in ‘BRIDGED’ mode, both level controls must be set to the same position.

    AIR FILTER The filter behind the air intake apertures on the front of the E4-75 amplifier should be cleaned or replaced periodically, e.g. 3-6 months. (Filters in amplifiers located in more 'dirty' atmospheres may require more frequent maintenance.) Access is via the blue front panel. The filter should be 'dry' cleaned, using a vacuum cleaner preferably.
