DESCRIPTIONS

For decades, the Class AB output stage set a standard for high

quality sound ampliﬁers. Although Class AB ampliﬁers are known for

their superior sound quality, they do not make efﬁcient use of power.

The output stage generates a lot of heat and requires huge heat sinks

and fans to ensure that the output transistors inside the ampliﬁer are

at a safe temperature. In order to achieve high power, a larger power

supply is required, but eventually most of the power becomes hot.

At the core of the VL-14000 performance is the Class TD output

stage a breakthrough ampliﬁer topology that approaches the exceptional

efﬁciency of Class D while retaining the sonic purity of proven Class B

Class TD is bridgeable, highly reliable, and maintains a ﬂat response

with complex loads as low as 2 ohms nominal. Also, it does not interfere

with RF equipment such as wireless (radio) microphones. Though

treated separately here, R.SMPS and Class TD were conceived and

engineered as an integral design within the ampliﬁer platform.

Designs. Remarkable efﬁciency of the VL-14000 is a Regulated

Switch Mode Power Supply (R.SMPS), which gives theadded beneﬁt

of stabilizing rail voltages to the output even with wide ﬂuctuations

of mains voltage.

The VL-14000 power ampliﬁer class TD from VL Audio. 2-channel

14,000 Watt high power that is low in heat. Dissipation. High wattage,

durable, strong, light weight Used for touring events, concerts or

installations.

2USER MANAUL

1. Read all documentation before operating your equipment. Retain all documentation for further reference.

2. Mains voltage must be correct and the same as that printed on the rear of the unit. Damage caused by connection to improper

AC voltage is not covered by any warranty.

3. Always operate the unit with the AC ground wire connected to the electrical system ground. Precautions should be taken so that

the means of grounding of a piece of equipment is not defected

4. Connecting ampliﬁer outputs to oscilloscopes or other test equipment while the ampliﬁer is in bridged mode may damage both

the ampliﬁer and test equipment.

5. Do not drive the inputs with a signal level greater than that required to drive equipment to full output.

6. Do not run the output of any ampliﬁer channel back into another channel's input. Do not parallel or series connect an ampliﬁer

output with any other ampliﬁer output.

7. In system setup ‚ampliﬁer's output power must be greater 50%-100% than the loaded loudspeaker's rated power.

8. Make sure the signal correctly connect to the ampliﬁer's input channel at current input mode.

9. Please turn off the power switch ,when pull off the power cord and signal cable or select the input mode switch.

10. In typical use, Please set the volume to OdB position.

11. Sometime, one signal to more than one ampliﬁer, suggest use signal distributor.

12. Please clean the dust ﬁlter , every 15 days.

Read all safety instructions before operating ampliﬁer.

Install equipment as follows:

-- Install in a ﬂat place, not bending or curved.

-- Do not install near water and moisture.

-- Place power ampliﬁer away from heat sources, such as

radiators or other heat source.

Keep in mind the following when connecting ampliﬁers

-- Read the user manual before connecting the ampliﬁer

-- Connect each connection of the ampliﬁer perfectly. If not,

it may cause hum, damage, elec shock in case of disconnection.

-- To prevent electric shocks, do not open top cover.

Connect the power cord with safety after check fo AC power.

IMPORTANT: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than

those speciﬁed herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

ATTENTION : RISQUE DE CHOC ELECTRIQUE - NE PAS OUVRIR

WARNING : TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTIRC

SHOCK DO NOT EXPOSE THIS EQUIPMENT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE

2 “POWER”(PWR) INDICATOR

This indicator lights when the power ampliﬁer is switching on.

3 “CLIP”(VPL) INDICATOR

Any illumination of the clip indicates a state of over

modulation (distortion at extremely high volumes). In

this case, check the output signal of your mixer and

turn down the input gain control. Please keep in mind

that the power ampliﬁer connot correct any distortion.

In stereo mode, this potentiometer allows the adjustment

of the channel A input level.

5 CHANNEL B VOLUME CONTROL

In stereo mode, this potentiometer allows the adjustment

of the channel A input level.

When this indicator lights, that means the power ampliﬁer

is in the protection mode. Switch off the device and ﬁnd

out the problem. This power ampliﬁer is protected overheat,
