The warnings in this manual must be observed together with the “USER MANUAL – Section 2”.
Thank you for choosing a dBTechnologies Product!
A4TI is a powerful 4 channel class D amplifier (PFC and SMPS power supply)
with 4- poles speakON outputs.
The user can choose between BRIDGE, PARALLEL, or STEREO MODE. A LINK MODE
selector increase the versatility of the use.
The balanced inputs, with sensitivity selector, can be linked to create a more
complex amplifiers network.
It can cover a wide range of applications, expecially in fixed installations.

Power switch
– Lights at the action of all the protection circuits
– Lights when compression/limiter is protecting the amplifier
– Lights when the output signal is around -5 dB than full power.
– Lights when the output signal is around -10 dB than full power.
– Lights when the output signal is around -20 dB than full power.
– Lights at the presence of input audio signal
– Lights when the amplifier turn on
INPUT SENSITIVITY / OUTPUT MODE / LINK MODE
SENSITIVITY
The user can select the input sensitivity, the output mode of the amplifier
and the link mode.
The input sensitivity can be selected from (0.775 V, 1 V, 32 dB), depending on
the charaterisctics of the source.
The amplifier can operate in three different modes:
-
* brigde- parallel
- stereo
The LINK MODE (1 in 4 / 2 in 4) increase the possibilities in the usage. All the cases are explained in the upper referencetable.
FIRST TURN ON
- Connect the passive loudspeakers, using cables with speakON connectors (2 outputs), depending on impedance, max rated power, amplifier mode, link mode. Select the amplifier MODE (7, 9) and LINK MODE (6).
- Connect the inputs, using balanced cables with XLR connectors (6-7 outputs). Select the inputs sensitivity.
- If needed, link the input LINK connector, to relaunch the signal to a second amplifier.
- Set the level knobs (10) to the minimum level.
- Connect the mains cable (socket 1), turn on the amplifier (12).
- Adjust the gain controls (8, 9), while the audio signal comes from your source.
