Martin Audio – MA4.2s Amplifier
ENGLISH
14
Never connect either output terminal to ground or to some other output or input terminal (see warnings in
chapter 1)
For normal two-channel operation, connect each speaker load across the output’s positive and negative terminals.
Pay attention to speaker polarity; loudspeakers connected out of polarity degrade sound quality.
Keep the loudspeaker cables as short as possible and use a good quality stranded cable. Do not use shielded wire,
such as microphone or guitar cable. The loudspeaker cable reduces the power of the amplifiers in two ways:
It increases the load impedance and introduces resistive power losses.
WARNING: To prevent electric shock, do not operate the amplifier with any of the loudspeaker
cable conductors exposed.
8 OPERATION
8.1 Operation precautions
• Make sure that the power switch is set to “OFF” before connecting any input or output or operating the
switches on rear panel. See pages 10 about installation.
• Make sure that the AC mains voltage is correct and the same as the one printed on the rear panel of the
amplifier. See pages 10, about operating voltage and power consumption.
• Make sure that the operating mode switches on the rear panel for, gain, clip limiting, and MLS selection
are in the correct position. See page 7 “ operating modes”, page 15
“clip limiters” and page 8 for MLS
selection.
• It is always a good idea to turn down the gain controls during power-up, to prevent loudspeaker damage in
due to a high signal being present at the input.

8.4 Indicators
The two-bottom green ”ON” LED’s indicate that the output circuits are receiving the correct rail voltage.
The ”-40 dB” LED’s illuminate if the output signal is greater than - 40dB (with 0dB as reference to full output power).
These LED’s also act as signal present indicators.
