PX10/PX8/PX5/PX3 Reference Manual
Signal processing in PX amplifier
The PX amplifier gives you comprehensive control over the sound with input processors and speaker processors. The signals from the input connectors are processed in input processors
equipped in each input connectors. The processed signals are added or divided depending on the set routing, processed finally with the speaker processor in each channel, and output from the
[SPEAKERS] terminals.
Refer to “TUNING screen” (page 25) in “Panel Operation” for details on the processing.
Input sensitivity and amplifier gain
The PX amplifier specifies the input sensitivity/amplifier gain from two input sensitivities or two amplifier gains. Input sensitivity controls the input signal level so that the amplifier can output
the maximum power. If signals over the input sensitivity are input, the built-in limiter of the PX amplifier is activated. If the volume is lowered, the input sensitivity rises and the amplifier gain
declines. Maximum power is constant if the volume is lowered.
For example, if the amplifier gain on the PX10 is set to 32 dB, the input sensitivity is +9.3 dBu and the maximum output power is 1,000 W (if speaker impedance is 8Ω). When the volume is not
lowered (0 dB), output power of 1,000 W results with +9.3 dBu input.
When the volume on the PX10 is lowered to 6 dB, the input sensitivity is +15.3 dBu (9.3 dBu + 6 dBu) and the amplifier gain is 26 dB (32 dB - 6 dB). If a +15.3 dBu signal is input, maximum
output power of 1,000 W is gained.

WARNING
To ensure that high-volume noise is not output from the
speakers, power-on the equipment starting with the audio
sources, then the mixer and processors, and finally the
amplifiers. Reverse this order when turning the system off.
NOTE
Details of the problem are shown on the display (i).
Selecting the [ ] icon on the “HOME screen” (page 15) with the
main knob calls up the operating log.
NOTICE
Do not unplug the USB flash drive while the [USB] indicator is
flashing. Doing so may cause data in the PX amplifier or USB
flash drive to be corrupted or lost.
NOTE
The settings can be changed so that the display and indicators
turn off automatically when panel is not operated (Black-out sta-
tus: page 34).
For protection of the display, if there is no operation for one min-
ute, the display automatically darkens; if unoperated for 20 min-
utes, it automatically turns off. To turn on the display again,
simply press any key on the front panel or rotate any knob.
NOTE
Press the main knob and [A] key to change the mute status of
channel A. Press the main knob and [B] key to change the mute
status of channel B.
NOTICE
When the [USB] terminal is not used, attach the included USB cap
to protect the terminal.
NOTE
The [USB] terminal is used in the following cases:

power cord to the connector on the amplifier, and then plug it
into an appropriate AC power outlet. Secure the AC power
cord with the AC plug clamp to prevent accidental disconnec-
tion from the connector.

output from the phone jack and input to another amplifier. Only
one of the jacks can be used as an input jack at one time; the sig-
nals from the jacks cannot be mixed.

NOTICE
Do not touch the terminals or metal parts of cords connected to
the terminal. If connecting speakers to multiple connectors of
the same channel results in a parallel connection, make sure
that the total impedance of the speakers to be connected is not
excessively low.
The PX amplifier adopts BTL (Balanced Transformer Less)
amplifier circuits. Connecting both terminals of channel A and
channel B and contact between the terminal and the chassis
may cause a failure or malfunction. Be careful not to connect or
contact the two by mistake.
NOTE
In Power Boost mode, the output terminals of channel A are used
(PX5/PX3 only).

Setup
1. Set the PX amplifier in the desired loca-
tion.
If the device is to be mounted in a rack, refer to “Rack
mounting” (page 11).
2. Lower the two volume knobs to the mini-
mum.
3. Connect speakers to the [SPEAKERS]
terminals.
Refer to “Speaker connection” (page 11).
4. Connect outputs from sources, such as
a mixer, to the [INPUT] connectors.
5. Connect the power cord to the [AC IN]
connector.
Secure the AC power cord with the AC plug clamp to
prevent accidental disconnection from the connector.
6. Turn on the device.
7. Set up the system configuration with the
Configuration Wizard.
Though the PX amplifier can be used as a normal ampli-
fier by simply setting the volume knobs properly, using
the Configuration Wizard to make settings enhances the
performance of speakers.
Refer to “CONFIG WIZARD screen (Basic mode)”
(page 20) or “CONFIG WIZARD screen (Advanced
mode)” (page 22).
8. Rotate the volume knob to adjust the vol-
ume.
9. Control the tone in TUNING screen.
Refer to “TUNING screen” (page 25). In this condition,
the device is available.

PX10/PX8/PX5/PX3 Reference Manual
The PX amplifier can be mounted in an EIA standard rack
(2U size).
Rack mounting
Precautions for rack mounting
This device is rated for operation at ambient tempera-
tures ranging from 0° to 40°C. When mounting the device
with other device(s) in an EIA standard equipment rack,
internal temperatures can exceed the specified upper
limit, resulting in impaired performance or failure. When
rack mounting the device, always observe the following
requirements to avoid heat buildup:
When mounting the unit in a rack with devices such as
power amplifiers that generate a significant amount of
heat, leave more than 1U of space between the device
and other equipment. Also, either leave the open
spaces uncovered or install appropriate ventilating pan-
els to minimize the possibility of heat buildup. Multiple
PX amplifiers can be mounted by stacking vertically.
To ensure sufficient airflow, leave the rear of the rack
open and position it at least 10 centimeters from walls
or other surfaces. If the rear of the rack cannot be left
open, install a commercially available fan or similar ven-
tilating option to secure sufficient airflow. If you have
installed a fan kit, there may be cases in which closing
the rear of the rack will produce a greater cooling effect.
Refer to the rack and/or fan unit manual for details.
Connecting to the [SPEAKERS] termi-
nal
Binding post connector
Without plugs
Remove about 15 mm of insulation from the end of
each speaker cable, pass the bare wire through the holes
in the appropriate speaker terminals, and tighten the ter-
minals to securely clamp the wires. Make sure that the
bare wire ends do not jut out from the terminals and
touch the chassis.
Y-plugs
From above, insert the Y-plugs all the way into the
opening, and tighten the terminal.
speakON connector
Insert the speakON cable plug (Neutrik NL4) into the
connector, and turn it to the right to lock it.
Speaker connection
CAUTION
Make sure that the power is turned off, to avoid the dan-
ger of electrical shock.
