	The A1 amplifier is built for road use and is tested under the most stringent conditions. To prevent damage, the amplifier is protected against overheating, short-circuits and over-current conditions. The power LED will turn red when there is a problem and will return to normal operating mode when ~~thefault~~ condition has been removed. If used with a power stand and two B1s, the bass level would drop 6dB upon shutdown.		The A1 amplifier is built for road use and is tested under the most stringent conditions.

	Yes. Unlike the L1™ Power Stands (Classic, Model I, Model II) there is no sensing circuit that determines the number of B1s attached to a PackLite® so there is no specific need to use the 4-wire Speakon® cables instead of 2-wire Speakon® cables. Note however, that the B1s are supplied with the blue 4-wire cables and these work fine.		Yes.

	No. Only 4-wire Speakon® cables are to be used with the A1 amplifier. The additional 2 wires (<nowiki>+</nowiki>2 and -2) in the connector are used for sensing purposes. Upon connection, the signal is automatically adjusted (EQ and level) for 0, 1 or 2 B1 bass modules.		No. Only 4-wire Speakon® cables are to be used with the A1 amplifier.
