6 The SRA amplifier is highly durable and carefully packaged. We recommend you inspect the unit carefully after removing it from the packaging, as occasionally there may be damage due to some unfortunate incident during shipment. Report any damage to the shipping carrier .
7 Rack Mounting 1- A #2 size cross point (Phillips) screwdriver . 2- The rack mount ears included with you SRA amplifier . T o attach the rack mounting ears, you will need: Dimensions shown are useful for non-rack mount installations. SETUP- Stand-alone mounting (cont’d.
8 SETUP- Rack Mounting Dimensions for rack mount installations. Note: Some dimensions are taken from the front surface of the rack rail. Continued, from previous page..... 1- Remove the two screws holding the front panel end cap in place. Use a #2 cross point screwdriver (Phillips).
9 SETUP- Supporting the rear of the amplifier If transporting the amplifier in a loaded equipment rack, support the rear of the amplifier using rear rack ears. They are optional and not included with the amplifier . QSC’ s T echnical Services Group has the rear rack ear kits for sale.
10 SETUP- Removing the Gain Control Security Cover Gain Control Security Cover The amplifier is shipped with its gain controls at their maximum setting of +29 dB and a security cover installed to prevent tampering. T o adjust gain settings, remove the cover .
11 SETUP- Installing the Gain Control Security Cover Installing the Gain Control Security Cover 1- Slide the cover into the front panel recess. Push it fully to the right and against the front panel. Y ou should feel the cover’ s retaining tabs drop into the slot in the front panel.
12 SETUP- Cooling Requirements The amplifier has a rear -mounted variable-speed fan. Speed is determined by the temperature of the amplifier’ s internal heat sink assembly . Cooling air enters the rear of the amplifier and exhausts from the front vents.
13 SETUP- AC Power Requirements AC Power V erify operating voltage before plugging amplifier into AC mains. Make sure the AC mains voltage is the same as specified on the serial number plate. Do not use a smaller gauge cord than supplied with the amplifier! 120 V olt models are sup- plied with a #14 A WG cordset.
14 SETUP- Operating Mode Selection Stereo Mode Mode Switches The mode switches are located on the rear panel. The switches are recessed to prevent accidental changes. It is best to set the switches as re- quired before mounting the amplifier in an equipment rack as they may become difficult to access.
15 Biamp Applications- Use Stereo Mode Stereo Mode Notes: •T o operate in stereo mode, set switches 4, 5, 6, and 7 to the left position. •Input connections: connect one input to CH1 and the other to CH2.
16 Parallel Mode SETUP- Operating Mode Selection: Parallel In parallel mode, channel 1 and channel 2 XLR inputs are connected in parallel. Applying an input signal to either XLR input will drive both channels. Each channel still has independent gain control, clip limiting, and output connection, just like stereo mode.
17 Bridge Mode In bridge mode, both output channels are interconnected into one, higher power output. The result is one output with about 4 times the peak power and about 3 times the sustained power of a single channel. Use CH1’ s gain control, clip limiter , and LF filter .
18 SETUP- Clip Limiter CLIP LIMITER ON: T o turn the limiter on, slide the switch to the right (Sw .1: Ch.1, Sw .10: Ch.2). CLIP LIMITER OFF: T o turn the limiter off, slide the switch to the left. Clip Limiters The SRA has separate clip limiters for each channel which respond only to actual amplifier clipping.
19 SETUP- Low Frequency Filter Channel 1’ s low frequency filter is operated by switches 2 and 3. Channel 2’ s filter is operated by switches 8 and 9. FIL TER ON: T o turn the filter on, slide the switch to the right (Sw .2: Ch.1, Sw .9: Ch.2). FIL TER OFF: T o turn the filter off, slide the appropriate switch to the left.
20 Audio Input Connections CONNECTIONS- Inputs, General Information Input connections to the SRA can be made with balanced XLR connectors for all operating modes, or unbalanced RCA connectors for Stereo and Bridge mode. We recommend using the balanced XLR connectors whenever possible.
21 XLR Connector Pinout CONNECTIONS- Inputs: XLR and RCA Connector Pinouts RCA (phono plug) Connector Pinout Balanced Unbalanced pin 2 pins 1 and 3 Jumper pin 2 pin 1 pin 3 Signal (+) Ground Daisy Chain Example (parallel mode only) All amplifiers being daisy chained must be in parallel mode.
22 Connecting the Outputs to the Loudspeakers There are two basic speaker connection configurations for the SRA amplifier . Stereo and parallel modes use two separate output connections (two loudspeaker loads). Bridge mode uses one output connection (one loud- speaker load).
23 CONNECTIONS- Outputs: Binding Posts Using the Binding Posts The binding posts support several connection methods; banana plugs, spade lugs, or direct wire connection. European models do not support the use of banana plugs. If using banana plugs, plug into the binding post directly .
24 Stereo and Parallel Mode output connections using binding posts Do not use less than 4-ohm loads in bridge mode! Note polarity of con- nections for bridge mode. Bridge Mode output connec- tions using binding posts CONNECTIONS- Outputs: Binding Posts Connect each set of binding post outputs to its respective loudspeaker .
25 CONNECTIONS- Outputs: Speakon connectors Speakon Outputs The Speakon connectors offer quick, reliable connection and disconnection of the speakers. Although more expensive than banana or spade-lug style speaker cable termination, the speed, convenience, and reliability make Speakon use popular with portable and live sound setups.
26 CONNECTIONS- Outputs: Speakon connectors Stereo or Parallel Modes Stereo and Parallel modes use one cable for each channel. Each cable con- nects to its respective output connector and speaker . CH1’ s Speakon can be used with a four conductor cable for carrying both outputs.
27 CONNECTIONS- Outputs: Speakon Biamp Application Biamp Operation In biamp, one channel is used for lows, while the other channel is used for highs. It requires the use of signal processing equipment between the source material and the amplifier . Always test the system at the lowest practical power level for proper operation.
28 CONNECTIONS- Remote on/off (remote trigger) Remote turn-on and turn-off capability is provided by the remote trigger jacks on the rear panel. Remote trigger can be operated by two methods, 12 V olt DC or contact closure (switch, relay). The IN and OUT jacks can be used interchangeably as they are wired in parallel.
29 CONNECTIONS- Remote on/off (remote trigger) 12 VDC T ype 12 V olt DC Remote T rigger For 12 V olt DC remote trigger operation, use a mono (2 terminal) 3.5 mm mini-plug. Do not use a stereo (3 termi- nal) plug. Connect a suitable two- conductor cable to the plug.
30 CONNECTIONS- Remote on/off (remote trigger) Contact Closure T ype 12 V olt DC Remote T rigger For contact closure remote trigger operation, use stereo (3 terminal) 3.5 mm mini-plug. Do not use a mono (2 termi- nal) plug. Connect a suitable two- conductor cable to the plug.
31 CONNECTIONS- DataPort DataPort is located on the left side of the rear panel. A typical DataPort application shown with a program- mable QSC DSP-4 signal processor . The PC is required only for programming the DSP-4 and is not required to remain connected.
32 LED indicators. USE- Front Panel Controls and Indicators Gain Controls A gain control adjustment is provided for each channel. The voltage gain of the amplifier (in dB) is marked around each control. Rotating the control clockwise increases the gain applied to the signal.
33 APPLICA TION EXAMPLE- 7.1 Surround 7.1 Surround Application The block diagram, at right, shows how SRA amplifiers might be connected in a 7.1 home theater applica- tion. The connections shown are simplified so as to convey the signal routing scheme.
34 TROUBLESHOOTING The amplifier “cuts-out” when I really crank it up (intermittent operation)- • Make sure the AC power source is rated for the required current! Avoid using extension cords! If required, use only the short est possible 10-gauge heavy-duty extension cords.
35 TROUBLESHOOTING I am using the amp for a subwoofer application and it sounds “rubbery”, what’ s up?- • V erify that the Clip Limiters are OFF . Why? The Clip Limiter is set to respond as quickly as possible after clipping is detected. On low frequency material, this may be perceived as a “rubbery” effect.
