Hughes & Kettner CF 200 Stereo Amplifier User Manual


 
We are pleased you chose
the
CF 200
power
amplifier. Its innovative CURRENT
FEEDBACK circuitry is the ideal medium for
the
modern guitar rack. The CF 200
is equally suitable for
PA, monitor, and keyboard applications.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES PRIOR TO OPERATING THE CF 200:
l The European model’s voltage can be adjusted from 220 V to 240 V.
l To avoid overheating, ensure sufficient air circulation is available both at the
sides and to the rear of the CF 200.
l Do not install any units sensitive to heat, for instance effects processors, directly
above the CF 200.
l Never expose the CF 200 to climatic extremes and ensure the amp is always
protected
from moisture.
l To protect your speakers, always switch the CF 200’5 power on last.
l Service and repair work should be left to an authorized repair shop. Before
opening the housing, always ensure the mains power cable is unplugged!
FRONT PANEL CONTROL FEATURES
(
1 ) The VOLUME LEFT and VOLUME RIGHT knobs regulate input sensitivity and
subsequently the power output. In the BRIDGE MODE, only the right control is
activated.
The green -20
db LED ( 2
)
indicates the signal level at the respective input is
correctly adjusted. The red CLIP LED
(
3 ) denotes the signal level is too high, and
the CF 200 is clipping. Adjust the appropriate VOLUME knob so that the red LED
illuminates at impulse peaks only.
