Page 3: Introduction
Introduction Thank you for your purchase of the Yamaha PX10, PX8, PX5 or PX3 power amplifier. Please read through this manual carefully before using for the first time, in order to take full advantage of your PX power amplifier’s superlative features and enjoy trouble-free operation for years to come. -
Page 4: Usage Examples
This conventional application inputs stereo L/R signals to each channel (A/B) for stereo reproduction with two speakers. Use with a full-range speaker and subwoofer The input signal is divided into separate frequency ranges for driving a full-range speaker and subwoofer. PX10/PX8/PX5/PX3 Reference Manual... -

Page 7: Signal Processing In Px Amplifier
Maximum power is constant if the volume is lowered. For example, if the amplifier gain on the PX10 is set to 32 dB, the input sensitivity is +9.3 dBu and the maximum output power is 1,000 W (if speaker impedance is 8Ω). When the volume is not lowered (0 dB), output power of 1,000 W results with +9.3 dBu input. -
