The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure, that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user of the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance. Furthermore, extension cords or power strips must provide the same three wire grounded connection. It is important that the blades of the equipment's plug be able to fully insert into the mating receptacle. [. . . ] AGUA Y HUMEDAD El equipo no debe ser usado en el agua ó alrededor de ésta, tales como en una bañera, tanque o áreas de nado. También, el equipo no debe ser usado en áreas propensas a inundaciones, tales como en un sótano. FUENTES DE PODER El equipo debe ser conectado a una fuente de poder del mismo voltaje y frecuencia que el indicado en el panel trasero sobre el punto de entrada del cable de corriente. PROTECCION DEL CABLE DE CORRIENTE Los cables de corriente deben ser dispuestos de forma tal que no interfieran con el movimiento de objetos en la sala: personas, aspas de ventilación, carretillas, etc. También, es necesario tener cuidado de que el cable no esté punzado o cortado, y debe estar ubicado de forma tal que esto no ocurra, como podría suceder debajo de una alfombra o al pasar el cable por una esquina aguda, etc. Even at low power levels, the trans·ana MOSFET amplifier circuit imitates the accuracy and warmth of it's bigger brother, the TA1600 trans·nova. Specialized circuits in both amplifiers prevent damage to the amplifiers and speakers, without affecting the audio signal. A soft start circuit prevents sending potentially destructive turn-on and turn-off transients to the speakers. A thermal sensing network monitors the heatsink and transformer temperature, and shuts down the amplifier to protect from excessive operating heat. The need for internal fuses has been eliminated; a sensing circuit monitors the output and shuts down operation when it detects a short in the output load. In addition, LED indicators give a visual representation of the operating status of each channel. Any type of fault - whether it is clipping, short protection, or thermal standby - will be indicated with a red LED. Hafler manufactures additional Professional and Home Theatre amplifiers and monitors that offer an extreme level of performance and advanced technology.

Spring clip output 4 3 5 6 5 2 1 2 Installation LOCATION The TA1100 and TA1600 power transformer can generate a substantial magnetic field, so caution should be exercised in the placement of low level components such as a tape deck, mixer or mic preamp to avoid inducing noise in the low level circuitry. The amplifiers can also produce considerable heat in normal operation, so the primary consideration when determining a location for the amplifiers is to allow for adequate ventilation. The large heatsinks provide unrestricted airflow, but care must be taken to keep the slots in the bottom panel and top cover clear. If the amplifier is mounted in an equipment rack, make sure adjacent equipment does not impede cool air flow. We recommend leaving one rack space above and below the amplifier for proper cooling. Inadequate ventilation can shorten component life, especially when other equipment raises the ambient air temperature, so circulating fans should be considered in tight quarters. [. . . ] If this happens, correct the fault and turn the amplifier off, then back on. This will reset the amplifier. WARM UP In order to achieve the best sonic performance from the amplifier, we recommend letting it warm up for 1 hour before beginning any critical listening. The amplifier may not deliver its full potential sound quality before this time has passed. Many users leave Hafler amplifiers on indefinitely to ensure the best operation without delay. [. . . ]
