Warranty Registration **IMPORTANT** Please take a moment to complete the warranty registration form located on our website. You MUST complete and submit this form within 30 days of purchase to activate your warranty. Unpacking The packaging contains: 1 – Owners Manual 1 – 6’ AC Power Cable (2, if a Dual IEC amplifier) 1 – 12V DC trigger cable 1 –MC Amplifier Carefully inspect your new amplifier for any shipping damage.
Design Features The MC series amplifiers are a multi-channel amplifier design that will continually produce power in excess of 125W/250W/550W with 8 ohm loads and 250W/500W/1100W with 4 ohm loads per channel depending on model. Each channel of the amplifier is powered from individual power supplies. The compact and effective design is made easier thanks to the help of the switching power supply that powers the bridged output stage derived from ICEpower™ technology.
NOTE: This is a balanced amplifier and you should NEVER connect either output to a ground point! Doing so may cause damage to your amplifier and connected components which will likely require service. The binding posts that you will find on the MC amplifiers allow many different methods of connection. Each binding post is made of gold plated solid brass. Both sides of the clamping nut are built out of one piece, and offers excellent grip.
12V DC Trigger In / Out Every amplifier in the MC series is equipped with a remote DC trigger input and output. In order for the remote trigger to function, the front panel power switch must be on at all times. When the 12V is applied, the switch will be brightly lit. When the unit is in stand-by mode, you will notice it will be slightly dimmer. The trigger output can be used to turn on other components such as subwoofers, and will also have a slight turn on and off delay.
6. If the switch is in the proper position and still no sound, then try replacing the interconnects to verify the connection between the amplifier and source. 7. Verifiy that the interconnects are conducting by replacing them on a different set from a connection that you know works. 8. Now that you have interconnects that you know work, try connecting the amplifier to another source that you know has worked in the past.
