Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of a new Carver Professional Power Amplifier. It is backed by
state-of-the-art engineering and manufacturing techniques to bring you the best in quality
craftsmanship and reliable performance. The pt1250, pt1800 and, pt2400 are specially designed for
pro touring applications. Their rugged construction and low profile make it ideal for sustaining the
abuses of the road with reliability and space-saving economy. The pt1250 is rated at 625 watts per
channel into 4 ohms and 465 watts per channel into 8 ohms. The pt1800 is rated at 900 watts per channel
into 4 ohms and 600 watts per channel into 8 ohms. The pt2400 is rated at 1200 watts per channel into 4
ohms and 750 watts per channel into 8 ohms. The sophisticated protection circuits designed into this
amplifier will protect your system should an unexpected fault occur. They also protect the amplifier from
excessive temperature, continuous current limiting and shorted outputs. The balanced input uses a high
quality, high common-mode rejection differential amplifier for exceptional hum and noise rejection. The
sequencing feature on the pt1800 and pt2400 allows a rack of amplifiers to be powered up from a remote
location. The daisy-chain connection scheme causes each amplifier to turn on in sequence, preventing the
large in-rush current that can occur when an entire rack of amplifiers is turned on simultaneously. This power
amplifier was designed and manufactured by people with a lifetime commitment to providing the world’s
finest components for music and sound reproduction. Thanks for placing your confidence in Carver
Professional. We know your amplifier will provide many years of dependable service and reliable sound
reproduction.
