A. [. . . ] Speaker pair A can also be connected via the 6. 35 mm phone jacks provided. AC Outlet This switched outlet allows the electrical hookup of other units, with maximum load of 300W. Input Jacks Lets you connect a variety of audio input sources via the balanced (XLR/6. 35mm phone jack combinations) or unbalanced (RCA) inputs. Fan Cooling Cooling system is automatically activated whenever amplifier is turned on. This forced air cooling system rapidly exhausts interior heat, reducing operating temperature and aiding performance.

Indicator lights remind the user to reduce the volume when amplifier output is excessive. INSTALLATION GUIDELINES Connecting the GND (Ground) screw terminal Connecting a mixer or preamplifier may cause excessive noise or hum in the amplifier output. To prevent this, connect one end of a low-capacitance shielded wire to the amplifier's ground screw (on the rear panel). Then connect the other end of this wire to the ground terminal on the mixer or preamplifier enclosure. STEREO Stereo or Mono Inputs Your Pyle Pro amplifier can be operated in Stereo or Mono mode, depending on the input source. If the input signal is mono, connect the source via the LEFT input only (also marked "MONO" on the back of the amplifier). Then slide the Stereo/Mono selector switch to MONO and the signal will be routed through both channels.

Connecting a CD or tape player or tuner In a normal installation, one would use the RCA JACKS for connecting a CD player, tape player or tuner Power On/Off Phone Jack Lets you connect a pair of stereo headphones for private listening or cueing (monitoring) sound prior to "airing" it. Left and Right Output Level Controls Lets you adjust the sound levels for each channel Speaker A/B Selector Switches Permits you to select speakers attached to terminal set A, set B or both. STEREO Speaker connections You can connect 4 Ohm, 8 Ohm or 16 Ohm speakers to Channel A and/or Channel B of the amplifier. If you connect two pairs of speakers, be sure to follow these guidelines: · Speakers which are connected to the same channel are part of a pair, and must be of the same impedance. · Speakers connected to different channels are NOT part of a pair, and can be of different impedances. Prepare the speaker wire by removing about 1 inch of insulation from the end of the speaker wire you intend to connect to the amplifier. NOTE: Use 18-gauge speaker wire for lengths up to 25 feet; 16-gauge wire for lengths over 25 feet. It is recommended that you use the shortest length of wire possible.

NOTE: Most speaker terminals are either color-coded or have a mark that indicates the terminal's polarity. Usually positive terminals are red or have a plus symbol (+), and negative terminals are black or have a minus symbol (-). Connect the speaker wires to the amplifier's left and right speaker terminals according to the terminal color polarity. R L 4 OHMS MIN. IMPEDANCE SPEAKERS MUST BE OF SAME IMPEDANCE!

[. . . ] For ease of reading in dark environments, the meter is illuminated. Using the meter range selector (PT2000 and PT1600 only) When output power is too strong, the meter's pointer might continuously swing to the extreme right and damage or reduce the accuracy of the meter. To protect the meter, you can use the meter range selector to control the amplifier's sensitivity to the input power signal. Leave the meter range switch in the OUT position to maintain a O dB gain for the meter. When output power is not strong, leave the meter range switch in the IN position to allow a +20dB gain. 4 ­ PYLE PRO PT2000/1600/1200 Amplifier Owner's Manual PYLE PRO PT2000/1600/1200 Amplifier Owner's Manual - 5 PYLE PRO Audio, Inc.
