amplifier technology and is used through the world in the renowned studios.
The MACRO 830/1400/2400 is used for professional output of stage stereo at three levels of power, with
excellent performance. Output power can be adjusted at the user's demand, and the sound quality and
protecting circuit are both sophisticated.
The front panel presents you with 6 LEDS (Power LED, Protection LED, Clip & Signal LED for both channels)
and 2 Level Controls (for both channels), you can operate this unit more precise and easier. The Output
Connectors are Speak-on jacks, and the binding post terminals are used for better matching. Before con-
necting this unit into your sound system, please make sure it is powered down to prevent any electric shock.

2. FEATURE LIST :
Sophisticated protecting circuits protect the machine from improper tampering
Input matching allows collection with any preamplifier
Excellent frequency echo and sound quality
High fidelity and low noise
Balanced XLR and 1/4" TRS Input Connectors
Output Connectors are speak-on jacks, and the binding post terminals are used for better matching
Output power can be switched between stereo , parallel and bridged
High-speed and low noise fan for releasing heat. When the temperature rises, the fan automatically switches
to high-speed, it re-back to normal speed at other times to reduce power consumption
Indicator for the output balance, as well as status indicators of SIG and CLIP. When there is any signal
(>100mV), the SIG LED lights up. When there is overload, the CLIP LED lights up. If anything abnormal
happens to the circuits, the CLIP LED will be continuously on, with no action from the circuits. This helps
the user to determine which status it is in.
White aluminum panels with acrylic presents an artistic and trendy look
Solid and durable, can be mounted into a cabinet
Manufactured under ISO9001 certified management system

2. Power LED
This Power LED lights up when the unit is powered up .
3. Clip LED
The Clip LEDs light up when distortion reaches or exceeds 0.5% approximately, which means the unit is
being driven by excessively high signal source ,and you'd better adjust the level control until these LEDs
re-eliminated .
Signal Indicator
These Signal Indicators light up when the output is more than 100Vm.

These level Controls are used to adjust the output signal level, you'd better adjust them properly to avoid any
distortion .
5. Protection LED
This red LED indicator lights up when the thermal-protection system is working ,no signal is output during this
protection period, and this means any overheating occurs inside the unit (the critical temperature is 80 ),
you must take actions to avoid this overheating ,e.g. :speed up the air circulation, decrease the signal level ...
If the problem is corrected, the protection systems deactivate automatically ,this LED eliminates ,and normal
amplifier operation is resumed .

11.Mode Selector
The MACRO 830/1400/2400 Professional Stereo Amplifier presents three operating modes:
- Stereo Mode
In this mode ,Channel A and Channel B operate independently (as a conventional stereo amplifier).
The Channel A input signal will be output from the Channel A output connectors, and the Channel B input signal
will be output from the Channel B output connectors.
- Parallel Mono Mode
In this mode, the Channel A input signal will be output from the output connectors of both Channels ,detail wiring
diagram you can refer to Chapter5.
- Bridged Mode
In this mode, the Channel A input signal will be output from the Bridge output connectors, detail wiring diagram
you can refer to Chapter5.
12.LF 30Hz Filter

5
 speaker systems by over loading or overheating .
This LF30Hz Filter is used to prevent this happening ,and add an appropriate low-pass filter in the input circuit
13.Fan
This fan releases the heating from the unit by accelerating the air circulation (air flow from front to back),
and its speed is continuously variable.

4. INSTALLATION & CONNECTION :

4.1 Mains Connection
Do not insert the power cord into this unit until voltage has been correctly set. Do not plug the power cord
into the mains until the voltage has been correctly set.
Please ensure that the MACRO 830/1400/2400 Professional Stereo Amplifier is supplied with the correct
voltage before turning on this unit.
If you can't power up this unit while turning on the Mains Switch (1), please check the Breaker (6) on the
rear panel first, maybe it is pressed to reset. Otherwise, contact the technician or qualified personnel for
any service.
Caution : To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than contained in this
manual unless you are qualified to do so.
Please turn off this unit before any installation and connection, esp .when you connect your unit into the
sound system. This is important to prevent damage to the unit itself as well as other consequent speaker
system.

6. CAUTION FOR APPLICATION

6.1 General Application Instruction
The following instructions describe the common ways to install your MACRO 830/1400/2400 Professional
Stereo Amplifier into a sound application system:
1. First, turn off power switch before connection.
2. Refer to Chapter 5 for speaker connection
3. MACRO 830/1400/2400 Professional Stereo Amplifier may be operated in one of the three modes, please
slide the Mode Selector (11) for the specific operating mode.

 6.2 Caution for Speaker Connection
The output capacity of out MACRO 830/1400/2400 Professional Stereo Amplifier is very high, be sure to use
a speaker system that has sufficient input capacity.
If the input capacity of your speaker system is lower than the rated output of the MACRO 830/1400/2400
Professional Stereo Amplifier, you can protect your speakers by connecting a fuse serially between the
speaker and the amplifier as shown below.

Po=I R I= Po/R
Po[W] : Speaker's continuous input capacity (noise or RMS)
R[ ] : Speaker's nominal impedance
I[A] : Required fuse capacity
As to the speaker cable, if you use a long one, use as thick a cable as possible to prevent deterioration
of the damping factor or power loss inside the cable.
