clip and is therefore the highest power level one can obtain without completely obliterating the

program.

Last, the "normal operating power", as defined by the safety standard IEC 65/ANSI/UL 6500 and

used by a majority of safety agencies. The normal operating power is measured using pink noise,

with an average output power equal to 1/8 of full power. The one eighth of the total power is as

loud as you can play music while making some attempt to avoid obvious clipping. It also

corresponds to headroom of 9dB, which is very low for normal audio program.

6.7.1 Calculation

The current draw can be calculated by dividing the mains input power by the mains voltage.

We recommend you to design the power distribution for at least the current at 1/8 power, and 1/3

power for heavy-duty demands like discos etc.

The heat power can be calculated as in the following example:

We consider headroom of at least 9dB and a 4 ohms load on an amplifier producing 700 watts per

channel. The 1/8 power per channel is accordingly; 700 / 8 = 87 watts, and total output; 2 x 87 =

175 watts.

The power consumption according to the chart above is then 1200 watts.

The heat power produced is the difference between the power consumption and output power;

1200 - 175 = 1025 watts per amplifier

7 CONNECTIONS

7.1 Input connections

7.1.1 Balanced inputs

XLR Input connectors are active balanced and wired according to the IEC 268, that is pin 2 hot, and

wired in the following way:

PIN 1 GROUND/SHIELD

PIN 2 HOT (+)

PIN 3 COLD (-)
