INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing this KV2 Audio EPAK 2500R controller/amplifier unit. This
manual contains important information on operating this unit correctly and safely.
Please take some time and read this manual to familiarise yourself with the advanced
features of this unit.
The EPAK 2500R is a four-way, active control and amplification system specifically
designed for the KV2 Audio ES Series™ modular loudspeaker systems. It houses all
signal processing and amplification as well as providing control for six different
subwoofer cabinet configurations, powered by the internal subwoofer amplifier, along
with providing control signal to an external VHD3200 subwoofer amplifier to power
further subwoofer cabinets if needed.
The amplifier compliment inside the EPAK 2500R is as follows:
High Frequency - 100-watt, Class AB, push pull, low intermodulation design.
Mid Frequency - 200-watt, Class AB, push pull, low intermodulation design.
Mid Bass - 600-watt, high-efficiency, current-enhancing switch mode technology with
Linear Active Filter.
Subwoofer - 1600-watt, high-efficiency, current-enhancing switch mode technology
with Linear Active Filter.
The EPAK 2500R is “Line Driver Ready” and has its own input impedance selector switch
on the rear panel to accurately match up the input impedance to the output of any
mixer used. In most cases it would be advisable to use a VHD LD4 line driver in addition
at the mixer end to ensure that the line to the amplifier is driven correctly and the signal
integrity maintained.
Although this unit is simple to operate improper use can be dangerous. This is a very
high-powered device that can put out high voltages and sizeable currents. Always use
safe operating techniques with the EPAK 2500R.
FOR YOUR SAFETY, READ THE IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS SECTION AS WELL AS
