ABOUT THIS MANUAL SCOPE The P-2200 is a system oriented amplifier, made to be used in conjunction with mixers, consoles, frequency dividing networks and speakers — those made by Yamaha or by other manufacturers. Like any power amplifier, the P-2200's performance depends on system design and installation, in addition to its own capabilities. Thus, the P-2200 Operating Manual is system oriented, describing system design parameters and installation techniques, as well as the operation and performan

INTRODUCTION PERFORMANCE The P-2200's performance is as impressive as its features. At a sustained output of 230 watts into 8 ohms (for each channel), there is plenty of punch to reproduce the powerful peaks essential to clean studio monitoring. High power handling also makes the P-2200 an unbeat- able choice for live rock or disco sound systems, where an amplifier can really "cook" all night long. Power alone is no virtue; the P-2200 has ultra-low distortion, less than 0.05% THD at full rated p

The following are actual oscilloscope photographs made by an independent testing laboratory. The close vertical alignment of input and output traces in Fig. 21 through 23 depicts very low phase shift, so the amplifier will not alter musical wave shapes. Fig. 24 - 1,000Hz Sine Wave, shown with Highly- Magnified Noise and Distortion Components Even at full 230 watt output (8-ohms), the P-2200's distortion is so low that it is almost burried in the noise, which is at least 110dB below the sine wave

POWER OUTPUT DISTORTION (Refer to Figures 6A-B, 7, 17, 18) The P-2200 is designed to have the lowest possible Types of Power Ratings distortion. There are many different forms of distortion, Peak power refers to the maximum undistorted power however, and comprehensive distortion ratings offer a output of an amplifier. Most amplifiers cannot sustain means to compare the performance of different their peak power ratings for long periods of time without amplifiers. external cooling fans. Because th

During the "overshoot" movement, the voice coil of the loudspeaker interacts with the loudspeaker's magnetic assembly to produce a voltage called "back E.M.F." (electro-motive force). This action is similar to the operation of a dynamic microphone. If the amplifier's output impedance is low, this "back E.M.F." voltage is shunted through the amplifier's output circuits to ground, and back to the voice coil. Since the path from the voice coil, through the amplifier's output circuits, and back to t

THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN usually unbalanced, and use single conductor shielded cables with 2-conductor connectors, either standard PROFESSIONAL AND HI-FI phone plugs or phono plugs (also called RCA or pin EQUIPMENT plugs). Occasionally, the inputs of a piece of hi-fi or semi-pro equipment are professional XLR connectors which have been converted to a 2-wire, unbalanced circuit by internally connecting either pin 2 or pin 3 to pin 1. The nature of unbalanced, balanced, and floating circuitry is di

Cables from high impedance sources (5000 ohms and its use with some hi-fi or semi-pro equipment, however up), should not be any longer than 25', even if low it's a good idea to check the specifications for each capacitance cable is used; shorten the cables if the situation. The point of this discussion, is that impedance impedance is higher. For low impedance sources of 600 and level are extremely important considerations when ohms or less, cable lengths to 100' are relatively effective. connect

NOTE: The P-2200 actually has a maximum signal to noise ratio of 110dB (which is its dynamic range!. The SYSTEM'S Dynamic Range is limited by acoustic noise at the mic input, for the system shown, and by the maximum signal to noise ratio of the PM-700 Mixer (93dB), a very respectable figure for a high gain device.
