FOR THE NEW OWNER

Carvins F-Series of professional stereo amplifiers represent the state of the art in linear
audio power amplification technology.

From small clubs to sports arenas you'll love the crystal clear sound these amplifiers pro
vide. Their light-weight, compact design is complemented by heavy duty construction per-
fectly suited for the rigors of road use. Theylre available In three power levels to fit the
widest possible range of applications.

It all starts with a massive precision toroidal power transformer. This type of transformer
is praised for its efficient transfer of energy and the way it confines noise fields quietly
within its coils \Mth this quiet efficiency also comes lighter weight One of the main rea-
sons Carvin is able to offer a substantial 1,200 Watts of power from a two rack unit pack-
age weighing only 25 pounds.

But thats just the beginning. A specially designed cooling chamber funnels the air vol»
ume of an average sized refrigerator across the heatsinks every 20 seconds. The heatsink
size, shape and configuration are custom made and optimized with the help of computer
aided design. The height to width ratio pushes the envelope of aluminum extrusion tech-
nology. Our high fin count is the greatest in the Industry but even more impressive are the
675 micro-fins which increase the heat transferring surface area of the sink by a phenome-
nal 52%| Staggered mounting of the power transistors distributes heat evenly across the
entire heatsinlr to eliminate hotspots.

Each model in Garvin's F twice Its power rating.

Garvins F-Series offers high quality audio in a tough, efficient package while providing
peace of mind reliability.
