Please take some time and read this manual to familiarise yourself with the advanced features of this unit. The VHD3200 is a rack mounted subwoofer amplifier. The unit contains two separate 1600 watt amplifiers with individual power supplies, signal paths and inputs and outputs within a single four rack space chassis.
2 GETTING STARTED 2.1 UNPACKING Unpack the VHD3200 and check to see if there is any damage to it. If you find any damage notify your supplier immediately. Only the consignee may institute a claim with the carrier for damage incurred during shipping. Be sure to save the carton and all packing materials for the carrier's inspection.
