INPUTS - The MT-1000II amplifier allows you to use two types of input connectors per channel, a XLR female jack for balanced connections

and a 1/4” TRS female jack that will accept balanced and unbalanced connectors. Use these connections to connect the output signal from a

mixer, cross-over or EQ to the MT-1000II amplifier. A balanced connection is recommended for cable runs longer than 20ft. When constructing

your own XLR cables follow the pin configuration described below for proper connections. For cable runs shorter than 20ft., you may choose the

1/4” TS unbalanced input option. The 1/4” TS unbalanced input option may be more convenient for most users due to the abundant supply of

prefabricated cables available at your local audio dealer.

BINDING POST/BANANA PLUG: Connect your speakers to the binding post outputs on the rear of the amplifier. The speaker wire may be

connected by bare wire (directly connected, usually for permanent connections), banana plug, or spade connector. Connections are made to

channel one and channel two outputs for Stereo Mode or across the red terminals of channel one and channel two for Mono Bridge Mode.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Although a speaker will operate with the positive and negative leads plugged into either terminal on the amplifier binding

post, be sure to plug the negative lead into the black terminal and positive lead into the red terminal. Ensuring proper polarity will avoid speakers

being out of phase that can cause a loss of bass response.

BANANA PLUG: (Figure 6)

When connecting your speakers to the amplifier using banana plugs, be sure that the red and black caps on

the binding post are completely screwed in. Insert the banana plugs into the caps of the binding post, be sure

that the banana plugs are inserted securely to avoid the risk of popping out.

BARE WIRE CONNECTION: (Figure 7)

When connecting your speakers to the amplifier using bare wire, unscrew the red and black caps on the

binding post, be sure not to completely remove or unscrew the red and black caps. Strip back the wire

insulation 1/2” (13mm). Insert the bare wire into the hole that was revealed by unscrewing the binding post

cap. After inserting the wire into the binding post hole, screw the binding post cap down on the wire. To

reduce the risk of shock or damage to your amplifier, be sure that the wire connected to one binding post

does not come in contact with that of another.

SPADE CONNECTOR: (Figure 8)

When connecting your speakers to the amplifier using spade connector, unscrew the red and black caps on

the binding post, be sure not to completely remove or unscrew the red and black caps. Insert the spade

connector into the binding post and tighten the caps down on the spade connector. To reduce the risk of

shock or damage to your amplifier, be sure that the wire connected to one binding post does not come in

contact with that of another.

MONO BRIDGE CONNECTIONS: (Figure 9)

Mono bridge operation connections will follow the above descriptions, however, when operating in mono

bridge operation the speaker connections will run between the two positive (red) leads, Use channel two

positive output terminal for the negative connection and the channel one positive output terminal for the

positive connection.

STEREO OPERATION : Page 7/Figure 10 details an example of a typical stereo set-up. Connect your inputs into channels one and two of the amplifier.

Connect your speakers to the outputs on the rear of the amplifier. Be sure that your front gain controls are turned down to their lowest level (fully counter-

clockwise). Turn your amplifier on. Turn your input source level up. Use your front gain controls to regulate the output volume. Be sure not to raise the volume to

the clip level, however an intermittent clip signal is acceptable.

MONO BRIDGE OPERATION : Page 7/Figure 11 details a mono bridge set-up. Be sure your amplifier and all other audio equipment are powered down.

Press the Stereo/Mono Bridge switch to the Mono Bridge position. Connect an input signal to channel one. Connect your speaker across the red output binding

post on the rear of your amplifier. Turn your equipment on (your amplifier should always be the last item you turn on). Apply an input source signal to your

amplifier. Use the channel one gain control to regulate your amplifier output.

Important Precautions Introduction Front Panel Rear Panel Set Up Operating Modes Specifications Protection Features

PROTECTION

SAFE POWER LEVELS AT DIFFERENT OUTPUT LOADS:

8-Ohm Loads: The amplifier can operate at its rated power level without risk of overheating. However, it may caused excessive temperature if it is pushed hard enough

to continually light the “CLIP” indicator, the amplifier's average output power can reach its maximum peak.

4-Ohm Loads: If the “CLIP” indicator flashes occasionally, the amplifier is approaching its Maximum long-term power capacity. If it is lit about half the time,

the amplifier channel will probably go into thermal protection within a few minutes.

2-Ohm Loads: Do not recommend to use MT Series for 2ohm loads.

SHORT CIRCUIT PROTECTION - The MT-1000II amplifier comes with built-in Output Short Circuit Protects. The Output Short

Circuit Protection protects the output devices of the amplifier from short circuits and stressful loads. If your speaker lines shorted, the

amplifier automatically detects this problem and discontinued operation for that channel. If one side of your amplifier becomes shorted

and goes into protect mode, the other side will continue to operate normally. During short circuit protection, the “CLIP” LED and

“PROTECT” LED will light simultaneously indicating amplifier fault. Channel output during the “Short Circuit Protection” will be

interrupted (i.e. no sound output). Short Circuit Protection can usually be traced back to the signal output line (i.e. speaker line). Check

the line from the output terminal of the amplifier to the speaker. If this line is good, check the internal speaker connections and

components. A short circuit will usually be traced to a bad cable or a bad speaker component and is rarely traced to the amplifier itself.

INPUT/OUTPUT PROTECTION - The input circuits are isolated by resistors. An ultrasonic network uncouples RF from the output and helps to keep the amplifier

stable with reactive loads.

OPERATING VOLTAGE (AC MAINS) - On the rear panel will indicate the correct AC mains voltage. Connecting to the wrong voltage is dangerous and may

damage the amplifier. Always be sure the source voltage for your areas matches the required voltage for your amplifier.

GAIN CONTROLS - The gain controls are located on the front panel and are calibrated in 2dB of attenuation from full gain. It is best to adjust the amplifier so no

“hissing” is heard from speakers with no music being played, this will ensure the lowest possible distortion during normal operation.

AMPLIFIER FEATURES

SWITCH-MODE POWER SUPPLY: The MT-1000II is designed with SMPS power with CLASS D of Power Stage Topology instead of the traditional toroidal

transformer, therefore the total weight of the amplifier is ultra-light, and also the complete performance is better.

LED INDICATORS: Each channel has three LEDs. One green LED indicates signal, one red LED indicates signal clipping and one red LED indicates protections

mode for shorts/overload. Both channels also share the center blue LED that indicates the mains power is applied to the unit.
