3B SST and 4B SST Series Amplifiers 1 Introduction Thank you for choosing an SST SERIES Stereo Power Amplifier . Bryston welcomes any suggestions you may have, or comments regarding the operation of your amplifier . We consider you, our customer , to be Bryston’ s most important resource, and your opinion is very much appreciated.
3B SST and 4B SST Series Amplifiers 2 Rear Panel Input / Output Connections 1. Input Select Switch. Each SST channel gives the user the option of switching between either balanced input or single ended input. 2. Balanced Input connector . ( Imp. 20k ) This input connector accepts st andard ‘XLR’ or 1/4” TRS .
3B SST and 4B SST Series Amplifiers 3 6. Output binding posts. The RED binding post is connected to the amplifier output . Connect to this post the (+) terminal on the loudspeaker . The BLACK binding post is connected to signal ground . Connect to this post the (-) terminal on the loudspeaker .
3B SST and 4B SST Series Amplifiers 4 Front Panel 1. 'SST POWER' switch The front panel label 'SST POWER', is a touch sensitive membrane switch used to apply or remove a/c line power to the soft st art circuitry . Push firmly the center of the switch until the power-up sequence begins.
3B SST and 4B SST Series Amplifiers 5 Power Control 1. Master circuit - breaker . The SST amplifier uses a magnetic-trip circuit breaker (1) to protect the amplifier . This switch should be ‘OFF’ during installation. When switched ‘OFF’ all A/C power is removed from the amplifier , including standby power .
