Reconfiguration Options for the KAV–2250
and KAV–3250
There are a number of options for reconfiguring the amplifier output:
Multi Amp Throughput (MAT)
is an internal connection option for the amplifier that lets
you send the same music signal to all amplifier channels using one balanced or single-
ended connection. MAT reduces installation complexity and cabling requirements in
systems containing multiple amplifiers.
Bridging
allows you to reconfigure two channels to operate as one combined amplifier
channel. The bridged amplifier channels deliver 1,000 Watts into an 8 Ohm load. The
remaining unbridged amplifier channel on the KAV–3250 can be connected to a
separate loudspeaker.
To reconfigure the amplifier for MAT or for bridged operation you need to remove the
top cover of the amplifier and access the input switch banks.
IMPORTANT
Removing the cover of the amplifier to reconfigure for MAT or for bridged operation is
the
ONLY
instance you are authorized to remove the cover of
ANY
Krell component
without voiding your Warranty. For more information on product limitations and
restrictions, see
Warranty,
on page 24.
