5 CHAPTER 2 The MM-4CEU is a required component for every MM-4 installation. It performs a number of important signal-processing functions to ensure that the MM-4 meets its published specifications and is protected against damaging overload conditions. The MM-4CEU mounts in a standard 19-inch relay ...

6 CHAPTER 2 AC POWER The MM-4CEU accommodates international power standards in two ranges: 90 to 130 V AC and 180 to 260 V AC, 50/60 Hz. A rear-panel switch selects between the two. ! CAUTION: Be sure to select the correct range for your local power standard before connecting and operating the MM-4C...

9 CHAPTER 3 The MM-4 is designed for high-quality distributed sound systems. To realize the MM-4’s full capabilities, a direct-drive power amplifier capable of 49 volts rms (70 volts peak) at the rated load impedance presented by the line configuration is required. The MM-4 presents a nominal load o...

10 CHAPTER 3 POWER SUPPLy Some amplifiers are designed so that the internal power supply rails sag as the load current increases. While the amplifier’s rated continuous output at a given load may appear high, its peak output voltage varies with the load impedance. Because a loudspeaker’s impedance c...
