HR824 OVERVIEW
· The HR824 Studio Monitors are two-way, bi-amplified active monitors with a rearfiring passive radiator. One amplifier drives the woofer and another drives the tweeter. The crossover point is designed so that the high and low frequency drivers are fed only the frequencies they can best reproduce. The amplifiers are designed with protection circuits to minimize the danger of speaker damage due to overdriving. The amplifiers' gain and frequency responses are individually hand-trimmed by a host of infernal adjustment pots to compensate for typical manufacturing tolerances. The adjustments produce a smooth frequency response from 39Hz to 20kHz (±1.5dB) with minimal phase difference.

THE AMPLIFIERS
· The Fast Recovery amplifier design uses low negative feedback, yet allows the amplifiers to maintain low distortion and stability even when driven into clipping. The low-frequency amplifier produces up to 150 watts continuous (350 watts peak) before clipping, while the high-frequency amplifier produces up to 100 watts continuous (210 watts peak).

·

·

·

·

THE PASSIVE RADIATOR
· The HR824 is a bass reflex 6th-order system, rotating in geo-synchronous orbit. Rather than use ports, the vent takes the form of a passive radiator, a mass-loaded flat piston coupled to the air trapped within the enclosure. The passive radiator is located at the rear of the cabinet, behind the power amplifier assembly. One primary advantage over simple porting is that a passive radiator can reproduce low frequencies with lower distortion and at a higher sound pressure level (SPL). The unique passive radiator design uses a diaphragm made with a composite honeycomb material providing exceptional stiffness to the radiating surface. The elliptical shape of the passive radiator takes up nearly the entire surface area available on the rear of the enclosure, allowing the passive radiator to move more air than Congress. This moving air also helps cool the amplifier.

·

THE DRIVERS
· The monitors feature an 8.75-inch die-cast magnesium frame woofer and a 1-inch viscous edge-damped aluminum-alloy dome tweeter on the front, and a 6-inch x 12-inch elliptical flat piston passive radiator in the back. The high-frequency driver is mounted on a die-cast zinc exponential waveguide which results in wide, controlled dispersion of high-frequency sounds. The unique passive radiator design provides a smooth response down to 39Hz.

·

·

·

·

THE CABINET
· The cabinet is made of high-density MDF wood from specially grown MDF trees. An internal "H" brace further increases the strength and rigidity (stiffness) of the box. An open-cell adiabatic pillow foam material gently fills the inside of the box to absorb internal reflections and dampen any standing waves.

REAR PANEL DESCRIPTION
SIGNAL INPUTS · The XLR female and TRS female connectors are connected in parallel . · Both input connectors accept balanced or unbalanced signals. They are wired as follows (per the AES/IEC standard): XLR TRS Hot (+) Pin 2 Tip Cold (­) Pin 3 Ring Shield (Ground) Pin 1 Shield

LOW FREQ SWITCH · The LOW FREQ switch inserts a steep lowfrequency rolloff into the response curve. · For most applications, use the 47Hz setting. · If you want or need the extra low-frequency capability, use the 37Hz (NORMAL) position. · You can use the 80Hz position to simulate a smaller loudspeaker. HIGH FREQ SWITCH · The HIGH FREQ switch tailors the overall high-frequency response by ±2dB at 10kHz. POWER MODE SWITCH · In the OFF position, the power amplifiers are in Standby mode and produce no sound. Low-level circuitry is still active, but the power consumption of the circuitry is minimal (8 watts). · In the ON position, the power amplifiers are live and operate normally. (The front panel ON/OFF switch must also be ON.) · Since the power supply and low level circuitry are already active (assuming the speaker is plugged into a live outlet), this is an "instant on" function. · In the AUTO ON position, the amplifiers turn on and off depending on the presence or absence of an input signal. An input signal level of ­45dBu (minimum) activates the auto-on function. A silent period greater than five minutes activates the auto-off function. The red PWR LED on the front panel reflects the state of the amplifiers. · Normally, use the front panel switch to turn the monitors on and off. · If you unplug the power when a signal is still applied to the input, you may hear sound from the monitor. This is after about 6 seconds, when the muting circuit unmutes and the power supply finishes discharging. This is normal and not harmful to the monitor. MAINS INPUT · Connect the power cord to this IEC socket, and plug the other end into your AC outlet. IMPORTANT: For safety reasons, the AC source must be a "3-prong" outlet with hot, neutral, and ground terminals. WARNING: Bypassing the plug's ground pin can be dangerous. Don't do it!

INPUT SENSITIVITY CONTROL · The HR824 expects a line-level signal at its input connectors. · The reference sensitivity is -7.5 dBu = 100 dB SPL at one meter (39 inches) with the INPUT SENSITIVITY control set to its NORMAL position. · The HR824 is designed to operate with a +4 dBu signal when the INPUT SENSITIVITY control is in the NORMAL position. ACOUSTIC SPACE SWITCH This is a three-way switch that adjusts the low-frequency response of the speakers to compensate for their placement in the room. · If you place the monitors against a wall (half space ), set the ACOUSTIC SPACE switch to the "B" position. This activates a shelving filter to reduce the low-frequency output by 2dB to compensate for the bass boost from half-space placement. · If you place the monitors into the corners of your room (quarter space ), the lowfrequency output approximately doubles from what it is in half space. Set the ACOUSTIC SPACE switch to the "A" position to reduce the low-frequency output by 4dB to compensate for the bass boost. · If you use the HR824s free-standing, away from walls and corners (whole space ), set the ACOUSTIC SPACE switch to the "C" position (NORMAL).

6

FRONT PANEL DESCRIPTION
ON/OFF SWITCH · Use this switch to turn on or off the HR824 from the front. It works with the POWER MODE switch on the rear panel in the following way: · If the rear POWER MODE switch is OFF, the front panel ON/OFF switch has no effect. The PWR LED remains off, so there. · If the rear POWER MODE switch is ON, the front panel ON/OFF switch turns the HR824 on and off, as indicated by the PWR LED. · If the rear POWER MODE switch in the AUTO ON position, the front panel ON/OFF switch turns the HR824 on and off as long as there is a signal present. OL (overload) LED · This LED blinks when the amplifiers begin to clip, and lights steadily if the overload protection circuit has been triggered. · Occasional blinking of the OL LED indicates that the loudest transients are reaching the maximum output capability of the amplifiers. · Frequent or continuous blinking of the OL LED indicates that you have exceeded the maximum output capability of the amplifiers and that the amplifiers are clipping. If you persist, the overload protection circuit takes over, reducing the input level. You should reduce the level from your signal source until the OL LED blinks occasionally or not at all. OVERLOAD PROTECTION · The high and low frequency power amplifiers have clipping detectors that light the OL LED when either power amplifier output clips. · If frequent clipping occurs, the driver thermal overload protection activates a compressor that reduces the input level to the amplifiers. During this time the OL LED lights continuously. · The compressor was designed to protect the speakers and its action is highly audible. · When listening at a very high volume, you may find that the OL LED lights frequently. Since the majority of the power requirements in any monitor are the low frequencies, selectively reducing the low end can provide a little more headroom

and volume for the monitors. Change the LOW FREQ switch to 47Hz or 80Hz, if necessary, to reduce the bass response. This may allow the HR824s to play louder and eliminate most amplifier clipping. THERMAL PROTECTION · The HR824 is designed to be efficient both electrically and thermally. · If the heatsinks get too hot, a thermal switch activates, placing the HR824 into Standby mode (indicated when the red PWR LED turns off). · Should this happen, make sure that airflow to the rear of the cabinet is not restricted. · When the heatsinks cool down to a safe temperature, the switch resets and normal operation resumes. · If your service customer complains that their HR824s keep thermalling out, make sure they keep them in the vertical position for improved ventilation. Also make sure the bias has been set correctly.

TEST PROCEDURES
REQUIRED TESTS
The following pages contain the test procedures for the amplifier section disconnected from the woofer and tweeter. For minor repairs, there is no need to run through all tests but you MUST at least do the following: · Adjust the bias, and check the rails and current draw as shown below. · Verify that both amplifiers meet full power into resistive loads, as shown on page 19. · Operate all the switches and verify their effect. · Manually (and gently) check the woofer for any sticking or rubbing in its travel.

NOTE:
The four adjustment pots VR2, VR3, VR5 and VR6 are set and glued at the Mackie Factory for optimum performance and should not be touched. The factory settings are made when the speaker is all assembled and its output measured in an anechoic chamber with a calibrated microphone. The setting of these pots takes into account manufacturing tolerances of the complete assembly, not just the amplifier on its own.

TEST EQUIPMENT
The amplifer performance must be tested into resistive loads: 4 ohm, 200 watt resistor for the low frequency amplifier 8 ohm, 200 watt resistor for the high frequency amplifier Other equipment required: Audio range sinewave generator, oscilloscope, dc millivolt/volt meter, Vrms meter, THD meter. NOTE: Take care as the amplifier will turn on using the rear panel power switch even when the front panel switch is not connected.

INITIAL SIGNS OF HAPPINESS
· The amplifier is on and cold, NO loads, NO input signal · See the next page for the location of the test points BIAS: Measure the dc voltage across the two pins of J1, and adjust VR1 for a reading of 2.5 mV Measure the dc voltage across the two pins of J6, and adjust VR4 for a reading of 2.5 mV Don't stop, there is more: IMPORTANT NOTE: After the amplifier has been on for 30 minutes and if the rails and current draw seem good (as shown below), set both bias voltages to 9 mV (with no signal, no load). RAILS: Verify the various dc voltages are present, relative to ground (see the diagram on the next page): -56V, +56V, -49V, +49V, -15V, +15V. CURRENT DRAW The current should be less than 200mA with no loads attached.

CONNECTING THE LOADS
J5 is your time portal vortex to another realm of audio excitement. If you have a suitable connector, then wire the test loads as shown on the right. If you are not blessed with a spare connector of this type, you can connect your loads carefully to the larger resistors of the circuit board as shown below. Use crocodile (alligator) clips, or better still, use them little hook things.

LOW FREQUENCY AMPLIFIER TESTS
ACOUSTIC SPACE SWITCH Disable the compressor circuit by shorting together pins 1 and 2 of J12. Turn off the amplifier and connect the two resistor loads as shown on the previous page. Set all switches to the NORMAL position and turn on the amplifier. Set your audio signal generator for an output of 300mVrms(-10.46dBV). Measure the output into the 4 ohm load for the three positions of the ACOUSTIC SPACE switch. Do these measurements fairly quickly because the amplifier will be warming up. The level of the output may be different from that shown, due to the factory settings of the calibration pots. Just make sure that the speaker under test follows the overall shape and the switch is working. THD Measure the THD at 400 Hz and verify it is less than 0.1%

POWER TESTS
Disable the compressor circuit by shorting together pins 1 and 2 of J12. Set all of the switches to NORMAL and measure the output power of both amplifiers into their respective load resistors. Quickly verify that the output power is as least as follows: High Frequency amplifier 75 Watts @ 3 kHz into 8 ohms (=24.5 Vrms) Low Frequency amplifier 110 Watts @ 400 Hz into 4 ohms (=21 Vrms) Quickly verify that both amplifiers clip symmetrically. Verify that the OL (overload) LED turns on. Remove the short from J12 when finished.

WOOFER AND TWEETER TESTS
· Carefully inspect the woofer and tweeter cones for any signs of damage. The speakers do not have front grills, so any cosmetic damage should be easily indentifiable. Measure the dc resistance of each driver and verify nothing is shorted. The resistance should be around 6 ohms. Carefully and gently check by hand that the woofer moves in and out without any rubbing or scraping of the voice coil. Connect the woofer and tweeter to the HR824 amplifier. Conduct a listening test and play some low frequency (30 to1kHz) test tones to verify the performance of the woofer driver. Sweep from 15 Hz to 110 Hz and listen carefully for any air leaks at front and back. Listen at any screw holes, at the power switch and the leds. Tighten any screws, or replace gaskets if required. Play some high frequency (2kHz to 20 kHz) tones to check the tweeter. Listen for crystal clear highs, deep bass from two stories down, and the effervescent, detail-revealing openness so beloved by Hi-Fi gurus.

Servere ear/hearing damage can be caused by continous exposure to high level sounds. Take every precaution to preserve your hearing.

PARTS LIST
· When ordering the woofer or tweeter, you must order the bucking magnet as well. Then you will receive the assembly, with the bucking magnet already glued in place. Always order the woofer gasket at the same time, because during disassembly, this gasket can get torn. The tweeter gasket (and the small gasket for the LEDs) comes with the woofer gasket. Always use the inner box, the outer box and the thin white foam when shipping the HR824 and use all other means of safe-shipping protection. This will protect the finish from getting scuffed up or the woofers from being damaged. The assembly diagrams in the fold out sections of this manual also show the part numbers, so check there first for easier parts identification. Pages 22-26 show all the parts of the PCB assembly, including two charts of transistor and IC information. ·
