Presentation

The T 2.800 ProAudio, designed to offer power and versatility in different environments, such as churches, concerts, businesses, gyms and homes. With 800 Watts RMS, divided into two 400 Watt channels at 4 Ohms, it comes in the standard 19" rack width size and has automatic dual voltage, making its applications even more flexible.

Thanks to its Class D topology, the T 2800 delivers high acoustic efficiency, with low power consumption and a natural response across its entire frequency range (8Hz to 70KHz), providing an incredible sound experience.

Equipped with balanced audio inputs (P10 or XLR) and standard "Speakon" outputs, the amplifier also offers full audio control with volume adjustments, audio signal indicators, input and output clip indicators, as well as dedicated crossovers (LPF / FULL / HPF) for each channel.

With the Mono/Stereo selector switch, practicality and flexibility are expanded, easily adapting to different configurations.

Important recommendations

• To ensure proper use, read this manual before using the product. It is important that you understand the CAUTION contained herein.
• The product must be installed in a secure, well-ventilated location, away from dust, moisture, water, and near heat sources;
• Installation must be performed by a qualified professional;
• Avoid locations exposed to direct sunlight.
• Do not obstruct the ventilation holes on the sides.
• Avoid drops and impacts.
• Carefully observe polarity. NEVER reverse the polarity.
• Whenever removing the product, remove all connections while it is turned off.
• Use good-quality cables and connectors, as poor cables can cause damage to the product, interference, and noise.
• If the product requires maintenance, it must be taken to an authorized service center. This product is not user-serviceable.
• Disconnect the product from the electrical outlet during storms or when leaving it unused for extended periods.
• When in use, the external surface of the amplifier becomes hot, especially at the bottom. Avoid contact with this area and keep the amplifier out of the reach of children.
• This amplifier can produce high sound pressure levels. Avoid continuous exposure to levels above 85 dB to prevent hearing damage.
• The speaker output connections may present voltage levels when the amplifier is operating. Make sure the amplifier is OFF before proceeding with any connection or disconnection at these terminals.
• If you wish to dispose of it, do not throw it in the household waste. It should be collected by a used electronics disposal service for proper recycling.

Safety

As you read this manual, pay attention to the safety symbols.

CAUTION This symbol with "CAUTION" is intended to alert the user to the presence of important instructions. Failure to heed the instructions will result in risk of injury to user or product damage.

Front panel

Diagram Description: The front panel of the T 2.800 ProAudio amplifier features several controls and indicators.

• 1 - 19" RACK MOUNT HOLE: Holes for fixing the T 2.800 on a rack.
• 2 - LED CLIP OUT: Flashing in sync with the music indicates the amplifier is operating at the threshold of distortion on channel A.
• 3 - LED CLIP IN: Flashing in sync with the music indicates the channel A input signal is reaching 8VRMS (start of saturation).
• 4 - LED SIGNAL: Indicates the existence of an audio signal at the input of channel A.
• 5 - LED ON: Lit indicates channel A is on. Flashing indicates channel A is on protection.
• 6 - VOLUME: Channel A volume adjustment.
• 7 - VOLUME: Channel B volume adjustment.
• 8 - LED ON: Lit indicates channel B is on. Flashing indicates channel B is on protection.
• 9 - LED SIGNAL: Indicates the existence of an audio signal at the input of channel B.
• 10 - LED CLIP IN: Flashing in sync with the music indicates the channel B input signal is reaching 8VRMS (start of saturation).
• 11 - LED CLIP OUT: Flashing in sync with the music indicates the amplifier is operating at the threshold of distortion on channel B.
• 12 - ON/OFF SWITCH: Turns amplifier power on and off.

Rear panel

Diagram Description: The rear panel provides connections for power, speakers, and audio inputs.

• 1 - POWER CABLE: Connects to the AC electrical grid. Operates on 120V AC or 240V AC (automatic dual voltage). Includes internal wiring description: Green & Yellow = Earth Wire, Brown/Blue = AC Voltage. Warning: DON'T OPEN, RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. INTERNAL FUSE.
• 2 - OUT B: Channel B power output for speakers. Follow polarity and recommended minimum impedance (4 Ohms).
• 3 - OUT A: Channel A power output for speakers. Follow polarity and recommended minimum impedance (4 Ohms).
• 4 - B: Balanced audio inputs with P10 or XLR connection.
• 5 - LPF / FULL / HPF: B-channel crossover selector.
• 6 - MONO / STEREO: Selector switch. In MONO, use one audio input (INPUT B), signal sent to INPUT A internally. In STEREO, requires two input audio signals.
• 7 - LPF / FULL / HPF: Channel A crossover selector.
• 8 - A: Balanced audio inputs with P10 or XLR connection.

Connection to the AC electrical grid

Ensure the wall power can handle the amplifier's maximum current draw.

Speakon Plug Connection

Diagram Description: A Speakon connector diagram showing the standard pinout for speaker connections.

Pinout:

• 1+: Output +
• 1-: Output -
• 2+: Output +
• 2-: Output -

CAUTION: Due to the presence of voltage at the output terminals when the product is on, avoid contact with them. Risk of electric shock. Connect signals with amplifier volumes at minimum. Connect the output cables only with the product off.

Stereo connection example

Diagram Description: Illustrates connecting the amplifier in stereo mode. Signal inputs (P10 or XLR) from an audio mixer, equalizer, or processor are connected to the balanced inputs (A and B). The selector switch is set to STEREO. The amplifier outputs (A and B) are connected to speakers using Speakon connectors. The crossover is shown set to HPF (High-Pass Filter) with a frequency range of 100Hz ~ 70KHz.

Mono connection example

Diagram Description: Illustrates connecting the amplifier in mono mode. Signal inputs (P10 or XLR) from an audio mixer, equalizer, or processor are connected to the balanced inputs (A and B). The selector switch is set to MONO. The amplifier outputs (A and B) are connected to speakers using Speakon connectors. The crossover is shown set to LPF (Low-Pass Filter) with a frequency range of 8Hz ~ 100Hz for one configuration, and HPF (High-Pass Filter) with a frequency range of 100Hz ~ 70KHz for another configuration.
