This isnot only protects the amplifier, but it also prevents loadsattached to the amplifier from heating up excessively, animportant factor when the liability of an installed systemis a consideration. When the OMC detects a potentialfault situation and begins to limit current flow, an ambercoloured LED illuminates on the front panel to alert theinstaller to a problem in the system. When the OMCis activated, the amplifier will continue to play withoutdistortion, but the power level will be reduced to theamplifier channel that has the problem.ReliabilityEvery design decision, both the electronic and mechanical,was made with absolute reliability as the primary goal.An auto-resetting protection circuit is also part of the CI9060’s design. The fast acting protection circuit jumps intoaction if the amplifier overheats or encounters a dead shortcircuit condition. A red front panel LED indicates that theprotection circuit has been activated. When the condition isnormalized the amplifier resets to Standby condition. In theunlikely event of amplifier failure, the CI 9060 is designedto be easily field serviceable with all amplifying circuitrymounted on plug-in modules.Low pressure coolingWith the CI 9060’s highly efficient low-pressure coolingsystem, it is very unlikely that the protection system willever encounter an overheating situation. High-volume,low-pressure, fans keep both the power supply and theoutput stage cool, yet are essentially quiet in operation.Thermostatically controlled, the fans automatically adjust tothe ambient temperature to insure the optimum operatingconditions for the amplifier at all times.FlexibilityThe ideal Custom Installation amplifier not only has to haveabsolute reliability and great sound quality, but it also mustbe flexible enough to interface correctly with a variety ofother devices, and often diverse system requirements.NAD has developed two unique features that endow theCI 9060 with exceptional flexibility.CI 9060 6-Channel Power AmplifierThe NAD CI 9060 is a clean-sheet design 6channel amplifier specifically engineered to meetthe demanding requirements of the advancedcustom installation market. The result of thisintensive design effort is an amplifier that setsnew standards for “bullet-proof” reliability andsonic performance in this specialized category.PowerMany of the amplifiers designed for multi-zonedistributed audio are just not powerful enough.The CI 9060 at 80 Watts Continuous power perchannel, boasts nearly double the power of mostother competing amplifiers. This is very critical,because unlike a normal hi-fi amplifier that onlyhas to send its signal to speakers across room,custom installations often demand that the signalbe sent from one end of the home to the other.The series resistance of long runs of speakerwire combined with impedance-matched volumecontrols can create special demands on anamplifier that the CI 9060 has been designed toovercome.OMCNAD’s proprietary Output ManagementCircuit (OMC) ensures that the full power isavailable at any reasonable load impedance.If the load impedance falls below 3 ohms,indicating something other than a loudspeakeris connected to the amplifier channel, theOMC will limit the power flow and prevent |
