INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the Phonic Icon 300 or 700 power amplifier. The Icon Series is a line of professional power amplifiers specifically designed for contracting application. These two models each has independent channels and is available for driving 200V, 140V, 100V, 70V, 50V or 25V "constant voltage" lines. Each channel has its own power transformer (toroidal type) secondary to provide maximum audio separation (minimum sound leakage) between two channels, minimizing interaction that can otherwise occur on amplifiers with a common power supply.
FEATURES
• Automatic dual-speed, high efficiency fan cooling
- Rear panel detented gain controls for security and resetability
- Stereo, bridge or parallel operating modes
• XLR and barrier strip inputs
- XLR in and outs for multiple amplifier operation & easy signal pass-through
- Fully short-circuit, temperature and DC offset protection
- Barrier strip connection determines output mode - 25V, 70V, 100V and direct outputs available simultaneously
- Toroidal output transformers provide full electrical isolation and meet worldwide safety agency approval
- Built-in 45 Hz subsonic filter prevents speaker transformer saturation with minimal effect on program material
• Power-up muting
PRECAUTIONS
- When first powering up the amp, keep the amplifier gain controls all the off, in order to block potentially damaging or annoying sounds caused by defective cables or hookups. When turning up the gain, do it gradually, until normal operation is verified. These precautions are necessary with all high-power amplifiers, since they have enough power to blow most speakers in abnormal situations.
- Check the AV Voltage before connecting the AC plug
- Speaker Output Shock Hazard! The Icon 300 and 700 amps are capable of producing hazardous output voltages. To avoid electrical shock, make sure the cover is in place over the output terminals, and do not touch any exposed speaker wiring while the amplifier is operating.
ABOUT THIS MANUAL
Please be reminded that a power amplifier is a high-current, high-power device and should be treated with respect and care. Please read this manual before connecting and operating your unit, and file it in a safe place for future reference.
FRONT PANEL DESCRIPTION
1. Power Switch
The power ON/OFF switch with an LED indicator.
2. Protect LED Indicator
The Icon 300/700 features several types of protection to prevent damage to the circuitry during turn-on or fault conditions. If the LEDs light up, this indicates that one of the various protections is safeguarding the different sections of the amplifier and in these cases, the power output is normally switched off until normal operating conditions are restored.
- Loudspeaker protection: the power-on protection relay prevents damaging thumps to the speakers as the power comes on. When the amp is switched on, the protect LED will light for a few seconds, and then go out, indicating that the relay has closed.
- Thermal protection on the heat sink: If the amp overheats, thermal shutdown protects the circuitry until the temperature is reduced to a safe level.
- Short circuit protection: The Protect LED Indicator will also light up if the speaker terminals are short-circuited, or the impedance of the load is too low. In these circumstances, the Protect LED will stay on until the fault conditions are rectified.
Some protection situations require the amplifier to be switched off and then back on for normal operating conditions to be restored.
3. Signal "Status" LED Indicator
Each channel of the Icon 300/700 features a signal LED to show that there is an audio signal at the input to the channel. The threshold for the indicator is -26dB, which should be enough to avoid noise triggering the LED.
4. Limit LED Indicator
The Icon 700 has a built-in limiter on each channel to prevent clipping. Should the signal reach a level high enough to cause clipping, the limiter momentarily reduces the input signal level, just enough to prevent it. The limit LED lights whenever this occurs.
REAR PANEL DESCRIPTION
5. Gain Controls
These two knobs and the level controls for channels one and two respectively. Turning clockwise will increase its gain and counter clockwise will decrease its gain. Please always power-up with the volume all the way down, and increase the volume slowly to make sure that no conditions exist which could annoy your audience or harm your speakers.
6. CH1/CH2 Inputs (XLR Connectors)
These inputs are provided for making balanced connection to mixers, preamps, etc. The XLR inputs are wired as per the following convention.
7. Balanced Barrier Strip Inputs
These connection points provide the best option for permanent or long-term installation. Connections should be screwed down tight to exclude oxygen, and care should be taken to avoid loose strands of wire that may cause short circuits.
8. CH1/CH2 Parallel Pass Through XLR Connectors
These XLR output connectors are provided for parallel connection to another Icon or other amplifier.
9. Stereo/Parallel/Bridge Switch
In Stereo operation, two separate signals are treated separately by channels 1 and 2 of the amplifiers.
In Parallel operation, one signal is treated by bother channel 1 and 2 of the amplifier. In other words, a signal connected to Input CH1 (6) or CH2 (7) is sent to both Output CH1 (10) and CH2 (11).
In Bridge operation, both channels are configured to drive a single load with a single signal to CH1 (only CH1 is operative, and CH2 input must be vacant) at twice the power.
This switch should only be used when the Amplifier is off; otherwise the speakers' components could be damaged.
10. Direct Output Connectors, CH1/CH2
These are barrier strips to connect low impedance speakers. Spade lugs and bare wires should both be screwed down tight to exclude oxygen, and care should be taken to avoid loose strands of wire that may cause short circuits.
11. Audio Transformer Outputs, CH1/CH2
These are barrier strips to connect distributed line (25V, 70V, 100V, 140V and 200V). Spade lugs and bare wires should both be screwed down tight to exclude oxygen, and care should be taken to avoid loose strands of wire that may cause short circuits.
Banlance Barrier Strip Input Con- nections
Balanced connection - Attach as shown. Connect the (+) wire and ground wire to terminal pins as marked.
Unbalanced connection - Attach input signal wires as shown. Use the non-inverting (+) input and the ground terminals of the header, and also connect a wire jumper between the inverting (-) input and the ground terminal. The wire jumper will prevent a reduction in gain caused by a floating unbalanced input.

Barrier Strip Output Connections
Barrier strips located on the rear panel allow speaker cable connections to the amplifier output. See the diagrams for details on connecting speakers and/or distributed (23-, 70-, or 100-volt) lines. Insulated connectors of the type shown are recommended.
Always make sure the amplifier is turned off before you change any output connections.

Output connection for Icon 300/700, direct low impedance
Bridge Mono Configuration for Direct Outputs
- Set into bridge mode
- Connect the signal to channel 1's input only. Do not connect an input signal to channel 2.
- Use on channel 1's gain control to set the level. Both channels' signal and clip indicators should flash identically when the amplifier is operating.
Audio Transformer Outputs
Make sure the sum of the power settings of all the speakers does not exceed the power rating of the amplifier. It is a good practice to allow a 20% safety margin. For example, if the amplifier has a power rating of 300W, it is always a good idea to make sure the sum of the loudspeaker loads on the distributed line is 240W or less.

50 volt line output connection
100 volt line output connection
Bridge Mono Configuration for Audio Transformer Outputs
- For driving 140V or 200V distributed lines, the amplifier must be set into bridge mono mode.
- Connect the signal to channel 1's input only. Do not connect an input signal to channel 2.
- Use only channel 1's gain control to set the level. Both channels signal and clip indicators should flash identically when the amplifier is operating.
140 volt line output connection, bridge mono mode
200 volt line output connection, bridge mono mode
Parallel Mono Configuration
The "Parallel mode" ties the two channel inputs together so that both are driven by the same signal, without the need for external jumpers or wiring. After the inputs, both channels operate independently. Though they carry the same signal, their gain controls affect only their respective channels, which must be used separately. Please refer to the previous Rear Panel Description. Never parallel the speaker outputs.
Low-Impedance and Distributed Speakers on Icon Amplifiers
If your application calls for connection of an 8 ohm speaker and a distributed line to the same amplifier channel, the Icon 300 and Icon 700 are among the very few amplifiers that can do that. However, since most of the audio power is drawn by the direct-connected speaker, you must derate the distributed line; and the distributed line should have a total power load of no more than one-fourth of the amplifiers normal distributed line power rating.
● Computing maximum allowable distributed line load with a known low-impedance load
MaxTOP = [MaxRatedPL - ((2 x MaxRatedPL)/Impedance)]/2
MaxTOP is the sum of the power taps of the speakers connected to the Audio Transformer outputs.
MaxRatedPL is the maximum rated power of the amplifier into a two ohm load.
Impedance is the load impedance connected to the direct outputs.
Example: One channel of an Icon 700 has an 8-ohm load connected to the Direct (low impedance) output. Then the maximum power left available to drive a distributed line is: MaxTOP = [550-((2x550/8)/2)] = 206 Watts
