Introduction - MC2 Audio T2000 Operating Instructions Manual

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.
Fan speed is varied as required to keep the amplifier within its temperature limits. Signal limiters are included to
protect speakers from clipped signals.
The amplifiers include full DC and short circuit protection to ensure trouble-free service even in 'harsher'
environments.
Installation Instructions: ELECTRICAL
The amplifier has been manufactured to comply with your local power supply requirements, but before connecting the
unit to the supply, ensure that the voltage (printed on the rear panel) is correct.
Make sure power outlets conform to the power requirements listed on the back of the unit. Damage caused by
connecting to improper AC voltage is not covered by the warranty.
SAFETY WARNING
Apparatus with CLASS I construction shall be connected to a MAINS socket outlet with a protective earthing
connection.
Where a MAINS plug or appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, it should remain readily operable.
Where the amplifier is mounted in a rack and permanently connected to the mains, then the rack should be installed
with a readily accessible connector or an ALL POLE circuit breaker with 3mm breaking distances.
This unit is fitted with a 3-wire power cord. For safety reasons, THE EARTH LEAD SHOULD NOT BE
DISCONNECTED IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. If ground loops are encountered consult the section on 'Input
Connections' later in this manual.
