    * Channels C & D only Power requirements T3500 and T2000 are fitted with either a 100/120V/130v or 220/230/240V tapped transformer according to customer requirements. This amplifier will only operate to its very high specification if it is installed and operated as described in this...
  • Page 5: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION Your T Series power amplifier is a no compromise, high quality, class AB power amplifier. There is no dynamic switching of the audio or power rails (a very common method of achieving extra power at the expense of audio quality) thus ensuring optimum sonic performance.
  • Page 6 ALWAYS OPERATE THE UNIT WITH THE AC GROUND WIRE CONNECTED TO THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM GROUND. Precautions should be taken so that the means of grounding of a piece of equipment is not defeated. DO NOT REMOVE THE LID. Removing the lid will expose you to potentially dangerous voltages. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
  • Page 7 WARNING: Apparatus with CLASS I construction shall be connected to a MAINS socket outlet with a protective earthing connection. WARNING: To prevent injury, this apparatus must be securely attached to the rack in accordance with the installation instructions. Read these instructions. 14.
  • Page 8 ATTENTION: Appareils de construction de CLASSE I doit être raccordé au réseau électrique via une prise de courant reliée à la terre. ATTENTION: Pour éviter toute blessure, cet appareil doit être solidement fixé à la torture, conformément aux instructions d'installation. Lisez ces instructions.

    INSTALLATION: MECHANICAL To ensure that this equipment performs to specification, it should be mounted in a suitable rack or enclosure as described below. Like all high power amplifiers, it should be kept away from other equipment which is sensitive to magnetic fields.
  • Page 10: Operation

    COLD When operating in bridged mode, the minimum impedances are doubled. The minimum load in bridged mode is: 8 ohms - T3500, 4 ohms - T2000. LINK SOCKET Each channel is provided with a 3-pin XLR connector marked ‘LINK’ which allows the input signal to be linked to further amplifiers etc.
  • Page 11: Switching On

    This could trigger a fault condition since it would be seen by the amplifier protection circuit as a short circuit on the output. The T3500 and T2000 should be fitted with a suitable cross-over card set to roll off the LF response to be -3dB @ 63Hz.
  • Page 12 MAINTENANCE - (ENSURE THAT ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE UNIT IS DISCONNECTED BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE.) The filter behind the air intake apertures on the front of T Series amplifiers should be cleaned or replaced periodically, e.g. 12-24 months. (Filters in amplifiers located in more 'dirty' atmospheres may require more frequent maintenance).

This manual is also suitable for:

T3500
