7 LEVEL CONTROL DEFEAT The following procedures should only be performed by a qualified technician. Each pair of amplifier channels have their own ‘Local’ level control that may be bypassed to allow paralleling output channels. The jumper modules are located inside the unit, on the circuit board, ju...

8 HIGH CURRENT (MONO) USAGE The AV2600 has up to six output channels that may be paralleled (mono). This feature allows the amplifier to increase its output power into lower impedance speakers. Set all ‘AMP ON’, ‘L + R’ and ‘BUS’ DIP switches to the ‘ON’ position for the desired channels. Set the ‘S...
