③ PROTECTION indicator
When the protection system is active, the PROTECT indicator light up in red and the speakers are automatically disconnected from the amplifier's outputs. The protection system activates in the following situations:
When the amplifier is turned on
The protection system activates for approximately three seconds when the amplifier is turned on. After three seconds, the protection system deactivates automatically and the amplifier is ready for normal operation.
If a DC voltage is detected at the amplifier's outputs
XP7000/5000: Power shut down and the indicator is not lit.
XP3500/2500/1000: The protection system is active. Once the DC voltage problem is corrected, the protection system deactivates automatically and the amplifier is ready for normal operation.
If the amplifier overheats
When overheating occurs, the PROTECT/MUTE indicator lights. You should immediately turn off the amplifier and allow it time to cool down. See the Precautions section of this Owner's Manual for ways to prevent the amplifier from overheating.
④ CLIP indicator
Lights up red when the output signal distortion on the corresponding channel rises above 1% — indicating that “clipping” has occurred because the signal level is too high.
⑤ SIGNAL indicator
Lights up green when the corresponding channel's output level exceeds 2 Vrms (equivalent to 1/2W into an 8Ω load, or 1 W into a 4 load).
Volume control knobs
Each control knob adjusts the volume of the corresponding channel, in 31 steps from - dB to 0dB
- If you wish to lock in the knob settings, you can fasten the supplied security cover over the knobs so that the settings will not be disturbed.
- How to install the security cover
(1) Use the supplied hex wrench to remove the four attachment screws from the amplifier.
(2) Adjust the security cover to the position of screw holes. Fasten it into place using the same screws.

⑦ Air intakes
The amplifier uses forced-air cooling. The cooling fans draw air in from the front and exhaust it through the rear. Please be sure that you do not block the air intakes or exhaust vents.
- The fans do not come on at initial power-on, but will switch on automatically when the temperature of the heat sink rises above 50^ (122°F). The fan speed will then vary automatically as the temperature changes.

Rear Panel

① XLR inputs connectors
These balanced XLR-3-31 type connectors are used to connect input signals.
The pins are wired as shown below (IEC 60268).

- In bridged mode, only the first channel in the pair is active; i.e., channel A of pair A/B. Make sure not to input an audio signal to an inactive input terminal.
② Euroblock connectors
These balanced Euroblock connectors are used to connect input signals.
③ HPF switches
These switches are used to turn on and off the HPF (High Pass Filter) for each channel. When this is set to 20Hz or 55Hz , frequencies below the respective settings are filtered using a 12 dB/octave high pass filter.
④ GAIN switch
This switch is used when changing the Gain of the A and B channels simultaneously.
- +4dBu: The maximum output power can be obtained when +4dBu is input.
26dB: Setting of 26dB - 32dB: Setting of 32dB
⑤ MODE switch
- STEREO mode
In STEREO mode, channels A and B are completely independent.
PARALLEL mode
In PARALLEL mode, the channel A input signal is sent both to the channel A power amp and the channel B power amp. In this case, loads are automatically connected between the A and B input terminals.
BRIDGED mode
In BRIDGED mode, channels A and B operate simultaneously, functioning as a single mono amplifier.
Note: When in PARALLEL and BRIDGED modes, input terminals A and B are shorted automatically. Make sure not to input an audio signal to an inactive input terminal.
⑥ MONITOR/REMOTE terminals
This terminal is used to connect the external device for monitoring or remote control. Refer to "MONITOR/REMOTE PIN layout" on page 15.
