Getting Started with the MXS2800
Setting up your MXS2800 amplifier is a simple procedure which takes only a few
minutes:
Remove all packing materials (save them in case your units needs future service) and
decide where the amplifier is to be physically placed—it can be used free-standing
or mounted in a standard 19” rack, requiring a single rack space. When installed,
make sure that both the front and rear panels are unobstructed and that there is good
ventilation around the entire unit.
When making speaker connections, use the Speakon®
output connectors on the rear panel. It is never a good
idea to power up any amplifier that is not connected to
loudspeakers.
To make the signal input connections, use the input connectors on
the rear panel.
On the front panel of the MXS2800, turn both Channel level controls
fully counterclockwise (to their minimum setting). Then connect the
supplied heavy-gauge 3-pin power cable to the rear panel AC input
and to any grounded AC socket.
Turn the Power switch ON.
Apply an input signal to the MXS2800 at or about +4dBu (if sending
signal from a mixer, drive the output meters at approximately 0 vu). While the input
signal is present, slowly raise the Channel level controls until the desired sound level is
achieved.
For the best signal-to-noise
ratio, the MXS2800 should
normally be run with the
Channel Input controls at or
near maximum (fully clockwise)
and the PEAK segments should
light occasionally (but not
frequently) during maximum
levels.
