degrade the sound. Clipping distortion is caused at high volume levels when the output signal attempts to go outside the maximum voltage that the
amplifier can provide, causing the tops of the signal to flatten off. When CAP5 detects clipping the volume will be automatically reduced down until
CAP5 detects an undistorted output.
Note: The clipping detection is disabled by default. The clipping detection can be enabled in the Setup menu (see 'Setup menu' section).
If CAP5 is persisting, it is also advisable to check the specifications of your speakers to ensure that they are compatible with the CXA61/81. Both
amplifiers can be used with speakers with an impedance of between 4 and 8 Ohms.
The CXA61 outputs 60W RMS into 8 Ohms and 90W RMS into 4 Ohms, while the CXA81 outputs 80W RMS into 8 Ohms and 120W RMS into 4 Ohms.
If your connected speakers fall outside of these specifications, then this could also be a reason for CAP5 protection being activated.
