INTRODUCTION AND CONTENTS AMC+ SERIES INTRODUCTION 3 The Australian Monitor AMC+ series of amplifiers takes the heritage and reliability of our famous AMIS series amplifiers and integrates these features into low cost amplifiers for applications where reliability is everything, but the more elaborate features of our AMIS series are not required.
FRONT PANEL 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 CH 1–4 These control the levels for each channel input. 2 Bass There is 12dB of cut and boost at 100Hz. 3 Treble There is 9dB of cut and boost at 10kHz. 4 Master This controls the overall mixed output level. 5 On This LED indicates the unit is powered “on”. 6 Power This switch switches power on or off the mains. The up position is on. NOTE: For the model AMC+30 Risk of hazardous energy. Class 2 wiring should be used.
REAR PANEL This terminal is hazardous live and that external wiring connected to these terminals requires installation by an instructed person.

INSTALLATION NOTE: Only connect one output – either Distributed Line or Low Impedance Mounting Your amplifier is designed for standard 19” rack mounting and occupies 2 EIA rackunits (3.5”). The mounting centres are: Vertical: 3.0” (76.2mm) Horizontal: 18.2” (461.2mm) to 18.7” (473.8mm) The slots in the mounting flange will accept bolt diameters up to 1/4” (6.35mm).
INSTALLATION Direct Output The output terminal strip accepts wire sizes from 16-22AWG (1.5mm2 – 0.35mm2) or spade lugs. The following table should be used as a guideline for cable sizes. Regulations in your area may require different gauged wire and should be checked before using.
