Guided Tour - Rear Panel
1: Vent - To ensure proper cooling of the TM500 power amplifier, make sure this vent is
unobstructed at all times.
2: Fuse holder - Holds a 12 A / 250 V fuse for 115 volt operation or a 6 A / 250 V fuse
for 230 volt operation
3: AC input - Connect the supplied heavy gauge 3-pin “IEC” power cable here.
4: Speaker Outputs - These are the TM500’s main outputs; use these four unbalanced
jacks (two of which carry the left signal and two of which carry the right) to connect the
TM500 to loudspeakers rated at 4 ohms or greater (that is, 4, 8, or 16 ohms). The
lower the ohm rating, the greater the power output. We recommend the use of 4 ohm
speakers for long-term usage. The TM500 delivers 250 watts of power per channel into
4 ohms at less than 1% THD (Total Harmonic Distortion). In order to ensure correct
phase correlation, the tip of the TM500 speaker jack should be connected to the “+” (hot)
input of your loudspeaker, and the sleeve of the TM500 speaker jack should be
connected to the “-” (ground) input of your loudspeaker. Note that, when the Aux 1 /
Monitor switch (see # 20 on page 8) is pressed in, the TM500 operates in a “split mono”
configuration, where the left speaker output carries the main stereo output (internally
mixed to mono) and the right speaker output carries Aux send 1.
5: Power on-off switch - As you may have guessed, this is what you use to turn the
TM500 on and off. If the TM500 is connected to external power amps (via its Main Insert
and/or Mono output jacks—see #4 and #5 on page 6 in this manual), turn it on
before
you turn on the connected amps—and turn it off after the connected amps are turned off.
6: Fan - This variable-speed fan provides vital cooling to your TM500 power amp
(the hotter the amp gets, the faster the fan blows!). Make sure that cool, fresh air is
accessible at all times. Also, try to ensure that the TM500 is used in a dust-free
environment.
