INTRODUCTION

 

Thank you for choosing a 

DX series

 amplifier for your application.

 

Please  spend  a  little  time  reading  through  this  manual,  so  that  you  obtain  the  best  possible 

performance from the unit and become familiar with its operating requirements.

 

All DAS Audio Group products are carefully designed and engineered for cutting-edge performance 

and world-class reliability. If you would like further information about this or any other DAS Audio 
product, please contact us.

 

We wish you many years of service from this amplifier and look forward to hearing from you in the 

near future.

 

The 

DX amplifier series

 has been designed to combine incredible audio power and performance with 

ultra-flexible connectivity for both remote control and audio. Exemplary audio processing is assured 
through the use of an external DAS's DSP, or of the DSP platform in the 

DXi

 models, and power amplifier 

capabilities are taken care of with high efficiency output stages and a generous power supply.

 

All units. 

DX-100

 and 

DX-80

, can include optional Dante networked audio.

 

Accepting analogue, or optional Dante networked audio, this extra connectivity means that the 

DX

 

models can also be used in installation systems which already have a centralized DSP core but require 
the flexibility of being able to pick up multiple channels of audio from a network.

 

With a range of power levels available in the 

DX series

, the amplifiers can be networked to a single 

DXi

 

model, creating a powerful, efficient system that's easy to expand and adapt for use in live, install and 
everything in between.

INSTALLATION: ELECTRICAL CONSIDERATIONS

 

The amplifier has been manufactured to comply with your local power supply requirements, but before 

connecting the unit to the supply, ensure that the voltage (printed on the rear panel) is correct.
 

The amplifier is fitted with either a 100/120V or 220/240V tapped transformer according to customer 

requirements.
 

Make sure power outlets conform to the power requirements listed on the back of the unit. Damage 

caused by connecting to improper AC voltage is not covered by the warranty.

Safety Warning

 

Apparatus with CLASS I construction shall be connected to a MAINS socket outlet with a protective 

earthing connection.
 

Where a MAINS plug or appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, it should remain readily 

operable.
 

Where the amplifier is mounted in a rack and permanently connected to the mains, then the rack should 

be  installed  with  a  readily  accessible  connector  or  an  ALL  POLE  circuit  breaker  with  3mm  breaking 
distances.
 

This unit is fitted with a 3-wire power connector. For safety reasons, THE EARTH LEAD SHOULD NOT 

BE DISCONNECTED IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. If ground loops are encountered consult the section on Line 
Inputs and Outputs on page 11.
 

WHERE A FIXED MAINS LEAD IS FITTED, THE WIRING COLOURS ARE:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

230V AREAS: 

 

 

 

 

 

120V AREAS:

TO PREVENT THE LIKELIHOOD OF SHOCK OR FIRE HAZARD, DO NOT EXPOSE THE UNIT TO RAIN 

OR MOISTURE. DO NOT PLACE OBJECTS CONTAINING LIQUID ON TOP OF THE APPARATUS.
 

TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK DO NOT REMOVE COVERS. REFER ALL SERVICING TO QUALIFIED 

PERSONNEL.
 

DO NOT USE THE UNIT OF THE ELECTRICAL POWER CORD IS FRAYED OR BROKEN. The power 

supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon 
or against them, paying particular attention to cor ds and plugs and the point where they exit from the 
appliance.
 

ALWAYS OPERATE THE UNIT WITH THE AC GROUND WIRE CONNECTED TO THE ELECTRICAL 

SYSTEM GROUND. Precautions should be taken so that the means of grounding of a piece of equipment is 
not defeated.
 

DO NOT REMOVE THE LID. Removing the lid will expose you to potentially dangerous voltages. There 

are no user serviceable parts inside.
 

ESD strikes to the unit's front panel that are in excess of 4000 volts may cause disturbance to the status 

LEDs on the unit. This will not affect audio performance and will be corrected on the next power up cycle.
