The Crown T-Series Operation Manual describes a line of commercial audio power amplifiers, including the T3, T5, T7, and T10 models. These amplifiers are designed for professional use, offering robust performance and a range of features for various audio applications.
The T-Series amplifiers are designed to amplify audio signals for loudspeakers. They feature two channels, each with independent gain control, allowing for flexible configuration in stereo (dual), bridge-mono, or parallel modes. The amplifiers are equipped with various indicators to monitor operational status, including Power, Fault, Clip, and Signal Presence LEDs for each channel. Airflow is designed from front to back for efficient cooling, making them suitable for rack-mount installations.
The T-Series amplifiers offer varying power outputs depending on the model and configuration:
All models share common performance characteristics:
The T-Series amplifiers are designed for ease of installation and operation. They fit standard 19-inch equipment racks (EIA RS-310B). Proper cooling is emphasized, with recommendations to ensure adequate airflow and spacing in rack installations. The front panel includes a power switch, gain controls for each channel, and LED indicators for quick status checks. The rear panel features input and output connectors, along with switches for configuring the amplifier's operating mode (stereo, parallel, bridge-mono) and input sensitivity. Wiring diagrams are provided for various configurations using Speakon® and binding post connectors, including stereo (dual), bridge-mono, and parallel modes. Bridge-mono mode doubles the output power and utilizes only the Channel 1 gain control. Parallel wiring sends a single input signal to both channels for reproduction by two speakers. The amplifiers require Class 2 output wiring.
The manual stresses important safety instructions, including reading all instructions, keeping the manual, heeding warnings, following instructions, and not using the apparatus near water. It advises cleaning with a dry cloth and not blocking ventilation openings. Servicing should be referred to qualified personnel, especially if the apparatus is damaged or malfunctions. The device is designed with internal protection against various electrical faults and thermal issues. The warranty information outlines a one-year warranty period for defects in materials and workmanship for the original purchaser, with specific exclusions for damage due to misuse, accidents, or negligence. Warranty service is obtained by notifying Crown International and shipping the product to an authorized service center or the factory. The warranty covers repair, replacement, or refund at Crown's discretion and covers shipping costs within the United States. The manual also includes an FCC Compliance Notice, detailing the device's adherence to part 15 of the FCC rules and providing guidance for resolving potential interference issues. It also contains a Declaration of Conformity, listing compliance with various EMC and safety standards (e.g., EN 55103-1, EN 61000-3-2, IEC 60065).
