1. Introduction and Overview
1.1a Full-Rack, FX500 Models
FX 500.4, FX 500.2
FX500 amplifiers can drive conventional low
impedance speakers (Low-Z mode, 2Ω to 16Ω).
They can also drive 25V transformer coupled
speakers using the Low-Z output. In Hi-Z mode,
the amp can drive 70V or 100V high impedance
transformer coupled loudspeakers. Each model
provides four analog inputs, stereo S/PDIF
digital input & output, and either two or four
outputs (Low-Z mode), or one or two output (Hi-
Z or Lo-Z *BTL mode).

FX 500.4
Lo-Z Four 500W
*Lo-Z (BTL) Two 1000W
Hi-Z Two 1000W
FX 500.2
Lo-Z Two 500W
*Lo-Z (BTL) One 1000W
Hi-Z One 1000W
*Note: In Lo-Z BTL mode (bridge-tied load),
two amplifier output channels are combined to
create a single, double power output channel.
BTL mode can be engaged via the amplifier
Output Mode configuration setup menu
described in Section 6.3 of this manual.
1.1b Half-Rack, FX125/60 Models
FX 125.4, FX 125.2, FX 60.4, FX 60.2
FX125 and FX60 amplifiers can drive
conventional low impedance speakers (Low-Z
mode, 4Ω to 16Ω). They can also drive 25V
transformer coupled speakers using the Low-Z
output. In Hi-Z mode, the amp can drive 70V or
100V speakers. Each model provides four analog
inputs, stereo S/PDIF digital input & output, and
either two or four outputs (Low-Z mode), or one
or two output (Hi-Z or Lo-Z *BTL mode).
FX125 and FX60 models incorporate automatic
power sharing technology that enables power
to be shared proportionately as required
between the two outputs when in Low-Z mode.
