Make sure that yourREDGUM Amplifier is disconnected
from mains power before making any connection to
speaker terminals - Failure to do so may result in an
electric shock and/or damage to the amplifier.
Using heavy speaker cable (2mm minimum), hook up the
speakers as shown on the above diagram.
Before turning on power, check that wiring terminations
look neat and that no loose strands of wire are touching
another terminal. Failure to make neat connections may
result in poor sound or amplifier damage.
REDGUM Amplifiers
The power switch is on the left of the front panel
and is operated by the key provided. The power is
off when the key vertical.
To turn on power, rotate the key clockwise 1/4
turn. The key can be removed in the ‘on’ position,
but for safety reasons it is suggested that the key
be left in when the power is on. If preferred, the key
switch can be left in the ‘on’ position and the power
controlled from the wall outlet.
The Input selection and control of volume will be
done from your processor.
The REDGUM RGH900 amplifier has 6 identical
wide range channels which can be used
individually or in groups of any quantity. The
channel labelling is just to make it easier to keep
track of what you have connected.
The REDGUM amplifier uses new generation Metal
Oxide- doped Silicon, Field Effect Transistors
(MOSFET’s), which can operate into impedances
below 1 ohm without damage as they are not prone
to secondary breakdown like normal transistors.
But long-term, very high listening levels with
speaker impedances below 4 ohms may cause the
internal heatsinks to rise past 80 degrees
Centigrade. This will result in the protective thermal
cut-out operating and shutting off power to the
amplifier.
The power will automatically restore once the
amplifier cools down again.
If this occurs regularly consult your dealer about
getting a larger REDGUM Amplifier.
Make sure that your REDGUM Amplifier is
disconnected from mains power before making any
input connections to your other equipment - Failure to
do so may result in an electric shock and/or damage
to the amplifier.
Connect your Processor outputs to the inputs of the
REDGUM RGH900. All channels are identical internally,
so feel free to use the channel arrangement that suits
your setup.
You may leave any unused channels disconnected.
NOTE:
Connect any ‘Line Level’ inputs to your REDGUM input
sockets as all inputs are direct connected to the
power amplifier stages.
