TiTAN

FULLY BALANCED 1KW DUAL MONO BRIDGED POWER AMPLIFIER

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Thank you for purchasing the Musical Fidelity TiTAN power amplifier.

The TiTAN uses the latest in low distortion circuitry in a bridged configuration that delivers 1000 watts into 8 ohm and 2000W

into 4 ohm speakers.

It is designed to drive any loudspeaker system to its full potential without distortion or clipping interfering with enjoyment of

the music. Large musical transients are delivered without clipping. The overall listening experience is greatly improved due to

dramatically lower distortion and increased dynamic range.

The TiTAN accepts both balanced and single ended line level inputs. When driven from a balanced preamplifier the sound

quality is greatly enhanced by the doubling of the dynamic range and effective halving of the noise floor.

The TiTAN is a perfect answer to greatly improved dynamics in a beautifully engineered package.

Used properly and carefully, it should give many years of outstanding musical reproduction.

If there are further questions about any Musical Fidelity component, please consult the dealer from whom it was purchased,

who is there to give help and advice.

TiTAN SETTING UP Position the TiTAN on a stable, horizontal surface where there is no risk of it being knocked. Make sure ALL units involved are switched off and unplugged from mains supply before making or removing any connections. During normal use, the unit develops a certain amount of internal heat and therefore should be sensibly situated where it can radiate this heat most efficiently. If this is not realised, heat build-up will occur and may cause the amplifier to prematurely shut itself down.
