[13] BREAKER (automated fuse). After eliminating the cause of
faulty operation, simply depress the BREAKER and power
up the unit again. The BREAKER acts in place of common
discardable fuses.
2.3.2 Input filter
The LF (high-pass) filter removes frequencies below 30 and
50 Hz respectively. The reproduction of the signal’s bass portion
is thus optimized, since ultra-low, distracting frequencies are
eliminated, and more power is available for the reproduction of
the wanted segment of the signal. Engaging and disengaging
the filters is done by using the switches 3 (ch. 1) and 8 (ch. 2).
Switches 2 (ch. 1) and 9 (ch. 2) determine the cut-off frequency.
As long as the filter is disengaged, frequencies below 5 Hz are
cut to prevent damage.
You should set up the filters so they best suit the frequency
response of your speakers, since some speakers (e.g. bass reflex
speakers) are particularly sensitive to over-excursion below the
listed frequency range.
Caution
!
◊
Before engaging the BREAKER switch, you should power
down the unit (POWER switch set to OFF)!
[14] Power is supplied via an IEC connector. The matching
cable is provided with the unit.

[16] Here you can find a detailed overview of the individual
MODE SWITCHES functions ({9}).
The 50 Hz filter should be engaged when using broadband
speakers because the filter provides a moderate amplification in
the 100-Hz range, resulting in a fuller sound. The 30 Hz filter
is ideally suited for subwoofer operation as well as for broad-
band cabinets. The “Off” setting should be used only for special
applications (e.g. studio applications), in which recognizing and
subsequently removing infra-sound is important.
2.3 Configuration switches
(MODE SWITCHES)

2.3.1 Clip limiter
When the input signal connected to your amp is too high, you
end up with a distorted output signal. To prevent this, both
channels of your EUROPOWER feature a clip limiter that can
be engaged or disengaged selectively. The limiters automati-
cally recognize distortion and lower amplification until distortion
is reduced to a tolerable level. To preserve the dynamic charac-
teristics of the signal when low distortion levels are occurring,
the clip limiters function with moderate suppression. Use
switches 1 (ch. 1) and 10 (ch. 2) to activate the clip limiters.
When using broadband loudspeaker systems, the clip limiter
reduces high frequency distortions which occur when an
amplifier is overloaded. The drivers are thus protected from
being damaged.

2.3.3 2-channel mode (stereo)
◊
The mono-bridged mode puts added demands on amplifier
and speakers. Excessive distortion may occasionally com-
pletely mute the amp’s outputs as well as cause permanent
damage to the speakers. Please assure that your speakers
(minimal impedance 4 Ohms) as well as the cables used can
handle the extra power generated in this mode.
Both channels of your amp function independently from
one another in this operating mode, and each has its own
input signal. Two independent speakers are connected at the
outputs. To activate this operating mode, please set the MODE
SWITCHES 4 and 5 to “STEREO”.
◊
When running the unit in two-channel mode, the switches
for mono-bridged mode must be disengaged (dip switches
6 and 7 in left position).
3. Applications
◊
Running EUROPOWER amplifiers in conjunction with
8-Ohm speakers with a power rating of at least
2 x 400 Watts (EP2000) and 2 x 750 Watts (EP4000) is
recommended to assure optimal operation.
2.3.4 Parallel mode
Running in parallel mode enables you to feed a signal via one
of the inputs into both outputs. Each channel drives its own
loudspeaker with independent amplification, filter and limit
characteristics. To link the inputs, set the MODE SWITCHES
4 and 5 to “PARALLEL INPUTS”.
3.1 Differences between 2-channel,
parallel and mono-bridged operating
modes
2-channel mode is the most common operating mode of
amplifiers. Both channels operate fully independently from one
another. There is always a separate input signal as well as a
separate output signal.
◊
Mono-bridged mode switches must be disengaged when
running in parallel mode.
With inputs set to parallel, you can use the remaining input
connectors to feed the signal into additional amplifiers.
This means that the channel 2 inputs function as outputs.
The parallel mode is well-suited for applications in which
driving two speakers with the same signal but with separate
amplification, filter and limiter settings is desired.
2.3.5 Mono-bridged mode
This operating mode enables you to add up the respective
voltage of both channels and use it to drive a single loudspeaker.
The voltage is therefore doubled, the peak power is quadrupled,
and program power is roughly three times as high as that of the
individual channels. The input, output, gain, filter and limiter
controls belonging to channel 1 are used when running in mono-
bridged mode. The controls belonging to channel 2 are not used.
To prevent signal cancellation due to internal phase inversion,
the GAIN control belonging to channel 2 must be turned to its
left-most position.
Use this operating mode to route the power from both channels
to a single 8-Ohm or 4-Ohm load. To do so, set up the switches
6 and 7 to “BRIDGE MODE ON”. To use the binding posts as
your output, you MUST use the two middle posts only.

Examples:
Parallel mode is identical to 2-channel mode, except for the
• 2-channel (stereo) playback
• Two independent mono signals, e.g. instrument signal
and monitor mix
inputs of both channels are internally connected in parallel. One
input signal routes parallel both channels, while their filters etc.
are independently controlled.
• Bi-amp operation, whereby bass frequencies are run
on channel 1, and high frequencies on channel
2 (see chapter 3.2 “Bi-amping”).
Examples:
• A mono signal is fed into both channels, whereby amplification
of each channel is controlled separately.
• Parallel mode (as described above) with connection of an
additional amp via the remaining free input connector.
The input signal is present there and may be connected to
further equipment.
◊
When connecting a balanced input signal, please make sure
to exclusively use balanced cables for passing the signal
further on. Otherwise, a single unbalanced cable can turn
the entire signal unbalanced.

Fig. 3.6: DIP switch positions for mono-bridged mode
Fig. 3.4: DIP switch positions for parallel operation
When running in mono-bridged mode, the voltage of both chan-
nels is added up and fed into a single loudspeaker system. There
is one input and one output signal respectively, and only the
controls of channel 1 (and not of channel 2) are used.
◊
When the amp is overdriven for longer periods of time,
the output signal may occasionally be muted for several
seconds. In certain situations, excessive overdriving may
trigger off the automated fuse. To avoid overdriving the
amp, please continually make sure that an appropriate
volume level is applied.
◊
However, should the DIP switches 4 and 5 still be in
PARALLEL INPUTS position while in mono-bridged mode,
the signal on the free input (input channel 2) can be
forwarded to an additional amp.

mono-bridged mode.
◊
When connecting a balanced input signal, please make sure
to exclusively use balanced cables for passing the signal
further on. Otherwise, a single unbalanced cable can turn
the entire signal unbalanced.
Safety precautions for mono-bridged operation
◊
Running your amp in mono-bridged mode can quickly
result in excessive overdriving and premature shutting
down of the unit itself. In the worst-case scenario, your
loudspeakers may be damaged permanently. Therefore,
you should always make sure that the speakers you use can
indeed handle the power load fed into them.
◊
A voltage of up to 100 V RMS is present between the output
connectors of the EP4000. Always implement appropriate
safety precautions when connecting your speakers to avoid
the risk of electric shock.

3.2 Bi-amping
By using an active crossover, you can divide up the frequency
range into several bands. For example, in doing so you can split
a mono signal into upper-frequency and lower-frequency ranges.
These two signals can then be hooked up to the inputs of your
amp, so that channel 1 amplifies the lows and channel 2 ampli-
fies the highs (2-channel operation). The outputs are connected
to a 2-way speaker, whereby the output signal 1 drives the
woofer and output signal 2 runs the drivers. Of course, you can
use two separate speakers instead of a single 2-way speaker.
A stereo signal can also be split up analogous to the example
described above. However, to do that you need two 2-way
speakers or 4 separate speakers, two EUROPOWER amps and
an active 2-way stereo crossover. The BEHRINGER SUPER-X
PRO CX2310 is optimally suited for this task and offers
additionally a single mono-subwoofer output. By deploying a
third EP2000 amp (preferably in mono-bridged mode) and a
subwoofer, you have a perfect setup that adds a low-frequency
system to the stereo bi-amp application (see fig. 3.7). The amp’s
input filters for the high/mid-frequency ranges should in this
case be engaged and set at 50 Hz. To remove low, disturbing
frequencies from the signal, the input filter for the subwoofer
signal should be set at 30 Hz.
The BEHRINGER EUROLIVE SERIES loudspeakers are an
outstanding solution for expanding your P.A. system, because
each frequency range/application has a speaker type that
optimally suits its characteristics.
◊
Extreme clip limiter settings in bi-amp operating mode can
result in balance shifting.

4. Installation
Your EUROPOWER can be installed into a 19" rack and
requires two rack units. Please use four attaching screws and
washers for installation. Reinforce the back end, especially for
on-the-road use. Please assure that enough cool air reaches the
rack, especially when other rack equipment emanates a lot of
heat. In the case of the EUROPOWER EP2000 and EP4000,
hot air circulates at the front of the unit to thermally relieve the
rack enclosure.
◊
Fan speed adjusts automatically and assures safe
operation. Never block ventilation openings. Should
internal temperature reach extreme values, the unit will
shut down automatically.
Fig. 4.1: Professional speaker connectors
◊
Whenever possible, use thick and short speaker cables
to minimize power losses. Never lay output cables near
input cables.
4.1 Connections
Inputs
4.1.1 Using the binding posts
Each channel features balanced XLR and ¼" TRS stereo jack
inputs, with input impedances of 20 kΩ (balanced) and 10 kΩ
(unbalanced). In general, balanced signals cause less noise than
unbalanced signals.
To connect the loudspeakers to the amplifier’s binding posts,
please do the following:
1) Switch off the amp and disconnect it from the mains
(unplug mains connector).
For balanced input signals, use the XLR and ¼" TRS stereo
inputs. For unbalanced input signals, use the unused pin of the
XLR connector with grounding. No alteration is necessary on
mono jack connectors.
2) Remove the protective plastic covers shielding the binding
posts by loosening the two screws on the right-hand side of
the connections and lift the plastic cover upwards.
3) Attach the terminal of your loudspeaker cable to the
corresponding binding post.
◊
Should you register distractive signals such as noise or
hissing, we recommend separating the amp input from the
signal source. This way, you can quickly determine if the
noise originates in the equipment connected to the amp.
Always make sure to completely lower amplification of both
channels before powering up the amp (GAIN control turned
all the way leftward). Otherwise, permanent damage to
your speakers may occur.
4) Place the protective plastic covers into its original upright
position on each binding post and replace the two screws.
◊
Never operate the device without the protective plastic
covers in place!
Outputs
Your EUROPOWER offers several output connection
possibilities: two professional speaker connectors and two pairs
of touch-safe binding posts. The professional speaker connectors
were especially developed for driving high-power speakers. They
snap in securely, prevent electric shock and assure correct
polarity. The upper connector drives either one or both channels,
and is therefore well-suited for mono-bridged operation (1+/2+).
The lower connector carries the signals from channel 2 only.

When using binding post connectors, please make sure that
insulation on cables is not removed too high. Insert the naked
part of the cable fully so that no metal is visible. Cable clamps
must be isolated to avoid the possibility of electric shock. When
running the amp in mono-bridged mode, always use the middle
two binding post connectors, paying attention to correct polarity.
Caution
*
◊
If you notice naked cable endings on the binding post
connectors, do not power up the amp because of the risk
of electric shock.
Fig. 4.4: ¼" TS connector
4.1.2 Connecting to the mains
Always connect your EUROPOWER amplifier to the voltage
specified on the rear of the device. Connecting the amp to an
incorrect voltage can permanently damage your amp.
Before powering up the amplifier, double-check all connections
and fully lower the gain setting.
4.2 Audio connections
Various cables are needed for different types of applications.
The following illustrations show the correct wiring. Always use
high-grade cables.
◊
When connecting a balanced input signal, please make sure
to exclusively use balanced cables for passing the signal
further on. Otherwise, one single unbalanced cable can
turn the entire signal unbalanced.
