    13 MAXIMUM LONG-TERM OUTPUT POWER In a properly designed sound system, you can obtain the desired sound level without using the full output power of the amplifier; if the “ CLIP ” indicators flash once in a while, that is perfectly normal.

    14 HEAT EMISSIONS Essentially, a power amplifier draws electrical energy from the AC mains, converts it to DC, and then converts it again into an analog of the input signal to send out to the loudspeakers. Any AC power that enters the amplifier through the power cord and does not exit through the speaker outputs turns into heat, which the amplifier[...]

    15 PROTECTION CIRCUITS The design goal in high-efficiency amplifiers such as the CX Series is to increase the amplifier ’ s ability to deliver peak power without increasing its size, weight, and cost. However, the higher power flow through the output components makes effective, responsive protection circuitry absolutely vital. To this end, the de[...]

    23 EXAMPLE A loudspeaker (sensitivity: 94 dB @ 1W, 1 meter) in a busy office covers an area with an ambient noise of 72 dBA, measured at a seated person ’ s ear position at the desks.

    24 USING COMPONENTS WITH DIFFERENT VOLTAGES Sometimes it may be practical to use a transformer or loudspeaker/transformer combination with a different voltage system from what it was originally intended. For example, a 70-volt transformer could be used in a 25- volt system, although you would have to derate the power taps similarly. Never use a tra[...]

    25 X. How Many Speakers? How many loudspeakers can you connect to the distributed line? The amplifier itself determines the amount of audio power available to the line, and from that figure you must compensate for insertion loss in the speaker transformers and for headroom when you determine how much power is available for the speakers. For example[...]

    26 XI. Other Design Considerations SPEAKER TRANSFORMER SATURATION Speaker transformers tend to be fairly small, and some vary widely in quality. They tend, therefore, to be prone to core saturation at low frequencies. Saturation occurs when the magnetic field induced in the transformer ’ s iron core by the audio signal waveform has built up as hi[...]

An alternate method is to attach an 8-ohm speaker across the 25-volt outputs. This provides up to approximately 80 watts to the speaker and makes more power available to the 70V or 100V connections: up to 75 wa[...]
