.MAIN FEATURES:
Soft Start Processor
Silent activation. Prevents harmful loads from damaging the amplifier and speakers in case of power failure.
BI-VOLT OPERATION*:
Selectable for 110 or 220V (or ordered in custom voltages). (*) Except for Z2000, Z2400 and Z3200, only one voltage.
Soft Clip Processor
Active limiter. Prevents damages to the speakers and avoids clipping. Controls the amplifier maximum power, ridding it of distortions.

DCCS: Total contact system between dissipators and transistors. 60% more effective than the conventional systems.

EPS: Enhanced Protection Systems
Protection systems against input overload, short-circuit, DC, transients, ultrasound, reactive or mismatched loads, radio frequency, and over-heat with individual thermal sensors.
.

OVERSIZED POWER SUPPLY: Ensures the operation with variable voltage. Provides potent and precise bass sounds, even with low impedances.

Except for Z.200, Z.500, Z.700 and Z.900 models

.Left channel's input and output connections and crossover's selector and output.

The new 4-ohm Z series are already fitted with an adjustable active crossover*. They allow you to assemble multipath stereo or mono systems, biamplified active monitors using only one amplifier, ambient sound systems with subwoofer and many other applications, on a practical way with the highest quality, not requiring the use of external crossovers or passive splitters.
^Above: Detail of the input and output connections, volume control, and crossover cutoff selector for one of the channels.

Active 3 way system example.

....Internal frequency selection jumpers
.
You can set your Z series crossover to a wide range of cutoffs by simply positioning the easily accessible jumpers inside the device as per the figure above.
.
Dozens of cutoff combinations are possible according to the table below. When the crossover external switch is on Low, the cutoff used will be that for bass. When the switch is on High, the cutoff will be on mids and trebles. See the following:
