6、mited to several minutes. Congratulations on your purchase of this EXCELINEAR POWER AMPLIFIER. We are confident that this amplifier is capable of driving any known loudspeaker load, with sufficient power reserves to suit any home listening situa- tion. Furthermore, its refined circuitry will deliver
7、 that power with an accuracy that is sure to satisfy the most demanding of audiophiles. INSTALLATION The gloss black insert on the faceplate of your new Hafler Equipment has been packaged with a removable protec- tive coating. Please peel off this coating following installa- tion. When cleaning the
8、faceplate, we advise a soft cotton cloth with a non-abrasive cleaner that is safe for Lexan and painted surfaces. DO NOT use paper towels or any coarse materials to clean the faceplate as these materials may scratch the insert. Ventilation Adequate air flow is important to the continuing reliability
9、 of any power amplifier.The XL-600 uses a quiet, con- tinuously variable speed fan to cool the entire chassis Cool air must circulate freely into the side vents and out the rear vent. Allow at least one inch on each side, and at least three inches to the rear for unimpeded flow. AC Line Connections
10、and Switching NOTE: BE SURE YOUR AMPLIFIER IS WIRED FOR YOUR LOCAL LINE (MAINS) VOLTAGE BEFORE CON- NECTING AC POWER! 2 RadioFans.CN 收音机爱 好者资料库 The XL-600 is normally wired for use on 120 Volt 60 Hz power lines. If your line (mains) voltage is different, you will require the optional export multi-vo
11、ltage transformer, which accommodates voltages from 100 to 240 VAC, at 50-60 Hz. The XL-6003 power switch may be left ON, and the amplifier switched remotely via a preamplifier or other control center, provided that device has a switched AC outlet capable of supplying 20 amperes for the amplifier, i
12、n addition to the requirements of other units being switched. Alternately, you may connectthe amplifier direct- ly to a wall outlet, and use the front panel power switch provided on the amplifier. As a general rule, power amplifiers should be turned ON LAST, and turned OFF FIRST, before other equipm
13、ent, to avoid switching transients that may be generated by prior stagesHafler OH-100, OH-110, IRIS and SE-100 preamplifiers employ protective muting circuitry which ob- viate this concern. Input Connections Conventional shielded RCA type cables should be used to connect the amplifiers gold input ja
14、cks to the preamplifiers output, Gold connectors provide added as- surance against signal degradation due to contact cor- rosion. Regardless of cable or connector material, verify that the contacts are clean, and that the plugs outer shield is tight on the jack, to avoid hum. If you wish to install
15、the XL-600 at some distance from the preamp, the preamps output impedance and cable capacitance determine the maximum cable length to avoid high frequency losses.If, as with Hafler preamps, the output impedance is 600 ohms or less, and the cable capacitance is 50 picofarads (pF) or less per foot, th
16、en up to 50 feet of cable may be used. On long runs, keep the left and right cables close together, and avoid running them parallel to AC power wiring to minimize hum pick up. 3 Output Connections To preserve the high damping factor of the XL-600, and to minimize power loss, the use of at least 16 g
17、auge speaker wire is recommended, especially for speakers of less than 8 ohms impedance, or for wire runs of 15 feet or more. Your dealer can advise you on the wide variety of premium cables available from specialty manufacturers. The gold plated output binding posts on the XL-600 are of the “5-way”
18、 type, and will accept single or dual banana plugs, spade plugs , pin plugs, or bare wire through the hole in the center post. If using bare wire connections, tinning the end of the wire with solder is recommended, to avoid any frayed ends of the wire shorting to adjacent terminals or the chassis. B
19、e sure to follow proper phasing relationships when con- necting the speakers, FOR STEREO OPERATION, the amplifier “+”, or RED terminal, must be connected to the speakers “+”, or RED terminal, and the amplifiers “-“, or BLACK terminal must be connected to the speakers “- or BLACK terminal.

Monophonic Operation To drive a single speaker with increased power capability, the XL-600 can be operated in a “bridged” mono configura- tion, to
21、deliver over 900 watts into 8 ohms. To use this mode, set the stereo/mono switch to MONO, connect the input signal to the LEFT INPUT ONLY, and connect the speaker load to the two RED BINDING POSTS ONLY. These output terminals are “floating”, with the right red terminal the -” connection, and the lef
22、t red terminal the “+” connection. In this mode, THERE ARE NO CONNEC- TIONS TO EITHER BLACK BINDING POST OR RIGHT INPUT JACK. Make all changes with the power off. It is recommended to place a piece of tape over the unused connections to avoid later confusion. 4 16 gauge speaker single dual banana pl
23、ugs spade plugspin plugs Grounding The XL-600 employs a common ground between the two channels, which, for the input, is connected directly to chassis, and for the output, is connected to chassis through a 5 ohm thermistor to avoid ground loops. This common ground allows the use of external devices
24、which also have common grounds, such as headphone or speaker switch- ing boxes. Make sure that the “-, or black terminal of the amplifier is connected to the corresponding terminal of the accessory device. OPERATION Power Switch and Pilot Lamp The red bar above the power switch will glow when the po

If the unit has tripped off thermally, reduce the input signal to avoid high turn-on level. The red pilot bar will light a few seconds before operation is auto- maticall

Belayed Turn On and Protective Relay To avoid the turn-on transients generated by some pream
27、plifiers, the XL-600 provides a 3 second delay before a relay connects the output terminals, If your preamp requires a longer delay period, consult the factory on extending the delay. The relay will also disconnect the load if significant DC is present at the output, or if the short term heat sink t
28、emperature becomes excessive, while allowing the fan to continue cooling the amplifier. 5 Initial System Check Out After initial set-up, leave the XL-600 switched off (rocker switch to the left) and turn on the rest of the system. Wait 30 seconds, and switch on the amplifier. If you hear a loud shar
29、p “thump” from the speakers, or no sound is heard after the relay engages and signal is applied, consult the section In Case of Difficulty” at the end of this manual. Mono / Stereo Switch This switch should be left in the STEREO position, unless bridged operation is desired, as outlined in the secti
30、on “Monophonic Operation”. Speaker Fuses The fuse holders on the back panel provide a measure of protection against excessive power output to the speakers. They are not intended to protect the amplifier. The XL-600 is supplied with 5 ampere fast blow fuses installed. This value will afford minimal p
31、rotection for most speakers. A spare pair of 10 ampere fast blow fuses has been included, for testing purposes, or high power applications. This fuse value will offer no speaker protection.

32、NSTALL THEM IN THE BACK PANEL FUSE HOLDERS. THE EXCELINEAR CONCEIT The purpose of the Excelinear technology is to detect and then minimize all possible non-linearities, or distortions. This is done by subtracting the output of the amplifier from its input, A perfect amplifier would have no residual
33、signal. The less difference signal that remains, the better the amplifier. The test described below enables you to hear only the difference signal- the sum total of all audible 6 3AGAGC amplifier distortion, It will already be exceedingly low on the XL-600 as you receive it because each amplifier ch
34、an- nel has been factory adjusted using a typical loudspeaker load. But when the XL-600 is connected to your own speakers, careful readjustment by a technician may yield some slight improvement. The test is as sensitive as ones hearing, and much more precise than available measure- ment technology b
35、ecause it is able to reveal the audible effect of all distortions - even those which have not yet been identified or quantified! This is a very useful amplifier comparative technique which supplements conventional distortion measurements. With the XL-600, the total of all residual distortion product
36、s will be on the order of 60 dB or more down across the audio band - a substantial improvement over other amplifiers, where 40 dB figures are among the best. Only a few amplifiers cannot be subjected to this test: those which are phase inverting, and those which have floating (not grounded) outputs,
37、 or those which cannot tie together the output grounds. The XL-600 provides a unique internal adjustment for “fine tuning” each channel when it is connected to your speakers. This “tweaking” may fairly be described as significant only to those persons with “golden ears”. The rest of us who simply wi
38、sh to indulge ourselves with fine sound need not be concerned with this consummate pur- suit of perfection. The range of adjustment provided is within the defined operating specifications of the amplifier. Misadjustment will not damage or impair the performance of either amplifier or speaker. The re
39、gion of change is several octaves above the range of human hearing. Yet we have found that minute differences in absolute linearity can be heard, and this “tweaking” can minimize them. Do not change the factorys setting until you have at hand the appropriate gain control circuit described below. You
40、 will need the special tool provided, patience, quiet, and good hearing, but no test instruments to complete the task. Because the amplifier must be operated with the cover off, and high voltages are exposed, this should only be undertaken by a qualified technician. 7 A pair of headphones which have
41、 a high degree of isolation from outside sounds may simplify your test listening, but are not essential. If a very sensitive meter is available, it can replace the listening requirement, but your ears are better than conventional meters. Using a loudspeaker, what you hear is what (distortion) you ge
42、t. PERFORMING THE ADJUSTMENTS One channel of the amplifier may be used as a driving source to provide a signal at a conventional listening level; the other is the tested amplifier. These are then inter- changed to enable adjustment of both channels. Any type of signal may be used - music, white or p
43、ink noise, etc. The accuracy of the driving amplifier is not a factor - if it 1 has distortion, that distortion is simply a part of the test signal, and does not detract from the test accuracy. The circuit diagram shows the appropriate connections, and the values which provide a precise attenuator t
44、o adjust the gain so that the output level will exactly match the input level. The monitor loudspeaker is connected differentrally across the outputs of the two amplrfiers. If the signals are identical, there will be no sound from the monitor loudspeaker. Any differences between the input to and out
45、put from the test amplifier represent some form of distortion, and this will be audible in the monitor speaker, either as program related content, or as noise. The monitor speaker is not a part of the load, and it may be replaced by headphones, or by an AC voltmeter which can read down to 0.001 volt
46、. It is preferable to use a similar speaker for monitoring, because you hear the distortion products at realistic levels and content. It makes compara- tive evaluation of amplifiers more representative. A good amplifier will have low distortion, so you will have to Iisten very carefully, close to th
47、e speaker, to achieve the best null. Since the load speakers very audible output would interfere with listening to the much weaker signal from the monitor speaker, it must be moved to another room. How- ever, headphones which have earcups which are effective seals may enable you to make the adjustme
48、nt without having to move the speaker. Because headphones are 8 much more sensitive than speakers, however, the relative loudness of the residual distortion may be misleading. The test procedure is as follows: 1. First use the right channel of the XL-600 as the driving amplifier and the left channel
49、 as the test amplifier. Turn off the amplifier each time before making any change in connections, and before removing the cover. 2. Connect a speaker to the right channel speaker ter- minals to first obtain a normal listening level by adjusting the preamps volume control. A convenient signal is the interstation noise from an FM tuner with its muting deac- tivated. This is similar to white, or uniform broad band noise. 3. Now reconnect this “Monitor” speaker (here you may instead use headphones or a meter) between the left and right red binding posts. SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM FOR AMPLIF
