down and not used when operating in MONO mode.
D. IOC'"
An InputlOutpul Comparator LED is provided for each

4. Maintenance
Effective repair involves three basic steps: 10 Determine
the symptom(s) of the problem; 2) Identify the cause(s) of
me symptom(s); 3) Repair the unit 10 eliminalC the
caus.e(s), Before proceding through these steps it is highly
recommended that you first observe the safelY precautions
in the next section and conduct a visual inspection of the
unit.
4.2 Inspection
A careful visual inspection is valuable for most problems
which you may encounter. To inspect the amplifier,
remove the cover panels as described in section 4.3.1
Begin the inspection by looking for anything which
appears abnormal. like broken wires and burnt or visibly
damaged components. Check wire and component solder
joints. Inspect the prinlCd circuit board(s) for broken
traces and loose connections. Be thorough- the lime you
spend visuaUy inspecting the amp is time well spent.
4.3 Disassembly
The eXlCnt of disassembly required will depend upon me
extent of inspection. service, testing, adjustment and
repair to be performed. Hlustrutions referred to in
parenthesis are located in the parts list (Section 9) of this
manual.
4.3.1. Cover Removal
A fairly complete visual inspection can be performed by
removing the top (91) and bottom (90) covers. To

desoldering methods (See Section 7) from the lOp of the
board. Use extra care when working with a pan localed
near the front panel so as not to mar the finish.
b. Front panel controls and LED's may be
replaced without removing the OutpUt Module Board (Sec
the following section).
3. Output transistor replacement-Output transistor (25)
can be replaced by removing two mounting screws (per
output) and unsoldering the twO main connecting pins.

4.4 Reassembly
Reassembly is essentially the reverse of disassembly. If in
doubt about types and sizes of attaching pans, refer 10 the
appropriate illusuation in Section 9
4.5.Troubleshooting
The three steps to effective troubleshOOl.ing and repair
were mentioned earlier. They ean be summarized in the
three following questions: What is the problem (effec!)?
What is causing the problem (cause)? What can be done
10 eliminate the cause (repair)? The purpose of this
section is to help you answer these questions in an orderly
manner.
Finding and fixi ng the problem(s) is not the end of
maintenancc. The final step is to thoroughly test the
amplifier to be certain that it meets the faclOry
specifications after it ha.. been repaired. The test
procedures in section 4.5.3 will help you do this as well as
aid you in locating the cause of problem(s).
4.5.1 Identifying Symptoms
Why was the amplifier brought in for repair? Can you get
it 10 malfunction again? (Some problems can be
intcnniu.ant and difficuilLQ fmd.) If you don't observe
anything wrong with the amplifier, tactfully inquire how
the owner used it and try 10 detennine if it was misused or
some other component in their syStem could have been at
faull. (Appendices A and B contain the installation and
opcmtion instructions for the 0 -75.)

Power Specirlcatlons
Many manufac\UTClS publish power specifications ....ith a IOlermceof I dB or worse, That means their amplifier can deviate more than
20% in output! A 100 wan amp would mccltheir spec if il only produced 79.4 walts. Other manufacT\U'Cni qualify !.heir sJlCC5 by saying
they are "typical" Of "subject 10 mll1lufacruring toieranccs," thereby removing any perfOl1llmoe guarantee. We lake a different approach
at Crown - our published specifications aregllOl'an!eed for Ihree yean and can be proJected withSu\lice Plus for lI1l additional 3 years.
Further. because OUT "in-house" specs are more suingc:nt than our published specs, eye" Crown am plifier wj!l exceed iL~ published ~pec:$.

Appendix A: Installation
Before beginning Ihe installation of your amplifier, please
carefuUy note the following: It is always wise to remove
power from the unit and tum the input leve\ controls off
while making connections - especially if the load is a
loudspeaker system. This will elim inate any chance of
loud blasts or damage to the loudspeakers.
A.2.2 MONO
Installing lhe amplifier in MONO mode is very different.
MONO mode is activated when the Stereo-Mono switch
is pushed upward. In this mode only the Channel I input
should be used. DO NOT USE THE CHANNEL 2
INPUT or signal leveL Keep the Level conlTOl of
Channel 2 tumed complelCly down.
A.l Mounting
The 0-75 can be mounted into a standard 19 inch wide
equipment rack or a custom cabinet of your own design.
It occupies 1.75 inches of vertical rack space.

A.2 Wiring
The input and output jacks arc located on the rear panel.
A.2.1 STEREO
The instal lation is very intuitive in STEREO mode. The
input of Channell feeds the output of the same channel
as does the input of Channel 2. To put the amplifier in
stereo mode, slide the Stereo-Mono switch at the back of
the amplifier downward. Be very careful not to shan the
two Outputs together while in STEREO mode and observe
cOITCCtloudspeaker polarity. The load impedance should
not be less Ihan 4 ohms at either channel.
A.3 Input
The unbalanced inputs have a nom inal impedance of 25 K
ohms and will accept most line-level outputs. The XLR
inputs are 20 K ohms balanced and 10K ohms unbalanced
(pin 2 is noninverting). There are three precautions to
take when connecting to the inputs: I) Keep undesirable
signals off the inputs, 2) Avoid ground loops and 3)
Avoid feedback Ix:twcen an output and an inpuL
Large sabsonic (subaudible) frequen cies are sometimes
prCSCnt in tJle inpm signal and can overload, overheat or
oth~rwisc damage loudspeakers. To remove such

2. Keep unbalanced cables as short as possible avoid cable lengths greater than 10 fcct. (Long
Wlba.lanced cables may have noticeable high frequency loss and an: at higher risk o f pick ing up

B.1 Precautions
Allhough your amplifier is well proteCted from any external
faults, we recommend the following precautions be taken ior

B.2 Controls
Independent level controls and a power switch and power
indicator are located on the front panel. Bom level controls
are used in STEREO mode, but only theChanncll control
should be used in MONO mode. They areused to adjuSt the
desired output level (both the monilOr output and t.h~ main
outputs) and have thirty one detents for precise adjustment.
The openttion mode is switched between SlEREO and
In addition to the above essential conrrols, your highperformance amplifier has an IOC (Input/Output
Compa.rilOr) indicator and a Signal ?resence indicalOr for
each channel.
The red iOC LEOs are located on the from panel above the
level comrois. They will flash or glow whenever the
distortion speciflC2.tions of the amplifier are being exceeded.
Note: The ICC indicators also double as STAND-BY
B.3 Protection
Crown p::lwcr amplifiers are widely kno ..... n for their quality
construction, high reliability and extensive internal
protection circuitry. The D-75 is no e"ception. It is
prot.ected against all the common hazards which plague
high-powered amplifiers, inclueling: shorted, open and
mismatched loads (load impedance 100 low): overloaded
power supplies: er.cessive temperature; chain destruction
phenomena; inpm overload damage; and, high frequency
overiood blowups.
PrOl.ection against shoned and low impedance loads is
provided by a fast -acting limiter circui t wh ich
instanUlllcously limits the output power to a maximum safe
stress value. It functions automatically as a current limiter
at audio frequencies whose current limiting threshold is
depcndenl on the history of theoutput signal. Output current
causes the threshold to increase. The no-signal threshold is
high enough LO allow lOne bursting (even into 4 ohms)
without premature limiting, as is found in some recent
products or other manufacturers.
Since !.he Iimiler h2.S no instantaneous response to output
voltage. Oyback transients do not appear in the outpul when
limiting occurs on inductive loads. (Flyback transients are
a normal by-product of VI limiting, also called "Energy
Limiter," with an inductive load. The amplifier yields to the
