FRONT PANEL FEATURESFRONT PANEL FEATURES
RACK HANDLESRACK HANDLES
The rack handles were chosen for comfort while carrying your Power 750 from place to place. They will also protect the front
panel controls in the event the unit is dropped on its face. In some types of racks, the handles may need to be removed before
installation. This is easily done by removing the four screws holding them to the front panel.
VOLUME CONTROLVOLUME CONTROL
The Volume control affects the amount of signal driving the power amplifier. With the knob indicator in the full counter-clockwise
("MIN") position, turning the control clockwise will gradually increase the level the power amp sees and thus increase the overall
volume. In most cases, we suggest you run the Power 750 with the Volume control set near maximum and control the level from
your signal source
(i.e. preamplifier, console, etc.). This will result in less knobs to worry about and insure repetitive gain structures. In any event,
always keep an eye on the dot bar display to make sure the Power 750 is not being overdriven (+3 red LED continuously light-
ing) as this can result in damage to your speakers due
to DC content in a clipped waveform. Turning down the Volume control will correct this situation.
FOUR SEGMENT DOT BAR DISPLAYFOUR SEGMENT DOT BAR DISPLAY
The Dot Bar Display in your Power 750 can be thought of as a power amp "headroom" indicator whose markings are in dB incre-
ments. For example, running the Power 750 with the "0" yellow LED lighting on the musical peaks or transients gives the user a
maximum of 3db of headroom available before the amplifier reaches clipping or maximum undistorted power as indicated by the
following red LED marked +3. The user has reached maximum power from the Power 750 when the red LED is activated.
Running the Power 750 with the +3 LED lighting continuously will expose your power components to more intense heat (short-
ening their life span) and can also eventually harm your loudspeaker components.
SPEAKER ON/OFF SWITCHSPEAKER ON/OFF SWITCH
Moving the Speaker On/Off Switch to the "ON" position allows the signal from the amplifier to be heard through any speaker
enclosure(s) connected to the Power 750's output section. Moving the Speaker On/Off Switch down to the "OFF" position (labeled
"Speaker") disables the Power 750's output section.
This feature allows the user to tune up without interfering with other band members, plug and unplug
instruments without fear of a loud "pop," and various other applications.
NOTE: If you do not hear any sound when you plug in and your system is properly connected,
check the position of this switch!
