Professional Power Amplifiers

GX Series

GX3 | GX5 | GX7
GX Series amplifiers are ideal for professional entertainers who require maximum performance and portability on a limited budget. The hallmarks of the QSC brand professional audio quality, meticulous engineering, precision manufacturing and long-term reliability - are all intrinsic to GX. Add contemporary styling, multiple input/output options, light weight, and advanced protection circuitry, and the GX Series clearly represents real value something everyone can use. GX amplifiers deliver just the right amount of power to the most popular speakers used by entertainers. Typically, loudspeaker manufacturers recommend an amplifier with power output equal to the speakers Program (Music) Power rating or two times (2 x) the Continuous (RMS) Power rating. The GX3 is ideal for speakers in the 300 watt (Program) range, while the GX5 provides full performance for 500 watt (Program) speakers. The GX7 outputs 725 watts into an 8 ohm load. Owners of popular 4 ohm loudspeakers (such as dual-woofer, two-way models) will find the 700 watt (4 ohm) power of the GX5 an ideal match while the GXwatts will very capably power many of todays popular subwoofers or two typical 8 ohm speakers per channel. Technical Notes The GX3 uses the latest evolution of the QSC Grounded Collector output system, for optimum cooling of the critical power transistors. A true Class B biasing system combines maximum thermal efficiency with excellent audio performance. The GX5 uses a Class H system, based on key elements of the PL Series, (PLX, PL3, CX, DCA) almost doubling power in the same size and weight. QSC design expertise allows the output devices to shift from low-power to high-power rails in less than a millionth of a second, ensuring that the output power is always right where it needs to be without excess loss. Both amplifiers use premium toroidal power transformers for reliable "mid-weight" performance. A variable-speed fan moves air crosswise through the amplifier, drawing cool air in over the power transformer, through the fan, and then over the heat sink. This keeps the transformer cool and allows a full size heat sink to fit in a down-sized chassis. The GX7 adds the road-proven PowerLight supply to the Class H output section, for more overall output power and additional weight savings. The result is one of the highest power-to-weight ratios in the industry. A low-noise variable-speed fan with rear-to-front airflow keeps amplifiers and racks cool. As always, GX Series amplifiers are fully protected from the usual hazards of the trade, ensuring stable performance and long life. GuardRail GuardRail protection delivers full peak power while preventing detrimental overloads. During excessive clipping, or extreme overheating, GuardRail reduces gain just enough to preserve the integrity of the music, protect the speakers and keep the audience excited, without unprofessional distortion levels or shutdowns. Subwoofer/Satellite Crossover A subwoofer reduces strain on the full-range speaker, allowing it to play louder, or letting a smaller speaker do the same job. The GX Series supports this mode with a Crossover switch that splits the full-range input entering Ch 1, sending 20 Hz -100 Hz to the sub (Ch 1) and 100 Hz - 20 kHz to the top box (Ch 2). The front panel gain controls balance the sub and top box, while GuardRail optimizes peak power into the sub and top individually, for greater musical impact and dynamic range.

GAIN CONTROLS, CH1, CH2

The markings show attenuation in dB. For normal use, keep the control in the upper half of its range (less than 10 dB of attenuation). If set below half, the source may overload before the amplifier reaches full power.

RACK MOUNTING

Fits standard 19-inch rack, 2RU. Accepts #10 or 6 mm screws, as determined by the rack rails. Add rear support to prevent damage in portable rigs.

RED CLIP LEDS

Red flashing indicates the amp is being overdriven. Heavy overdrive triggers internal gain reduction, to reduce overload distortion. Normal gain will resume after the signal level returns to normal. See Troubleshooting if the red LED remains on continuously.

GREEN SIGNAL LEDS

The green LED starts flashing on soft signals (-35 dB), and changes to steady green as the signal level increases.

BLUE POWER LED

The blue PWR (POWER) LED indicates that the AC switch is on, and the amp is receiving power. Within two seconds, it is ready to use.

ALTERNATE GAIN MARKING

When the CROSSOVER switch is active (see rear panel), LF (CH 1) controls low frequencies (subwoofer), HF (CH 2) controls the high frequencies (mid-high box).

REAR PANEL FEATURES

CROSSOVER SWITCH CROSSOVER POSITION
Splits a full-range signal to drive a subwoofer and top box. CH 1 receives the lows, from 20-100Hz, for the subwoofer. CH 2 receives 100Hz to 20kHz, to power a full range speaker. When using CROSSOVER mode, connect signal to CH 1 only. Use the two Gain controls to balance the LF and HF signals (see Front Panel).

EXHAUST VENT

Keep vent clear. Install in open-back rack.

FULL RANGE POSITION

For normal, 2-channel use with all inputs active. The crossover is bypassed.

REAR EAR MOUNTING

TROUBLESHOOTING

NO POWER, NO LIGHTS, NO FAN
Confirm that the AC cord is fully seated and connected to a live outlet. Check the AC source by trying another device such as a lamp. Check the BREAKER on the back of the amplifier by pushing in the button. If the breaker trips off quickly, the amplifier needs servicing.
NO SOUND, WITH BLUE LED ONLY, NO GREEN OR RED LED
Confirm that the Gain controls are turned up. Confirm that the input cables are correctly installed at both ends. If using 1/4-inch speaker cables, do not confuse with input cables. Confirm that the source is active. If necessary, try another source, or connect another amplifier to the existing source. The green LED indicates the amp is producing a signal, so sound should be heard if the speaker is connected. Check the speaker connections at both ends, and try a different speaker.

AMPLIFIER LOSES VOLUME

If the amplifier is worked too hard, GuardRail will reduce volume to prevent thermal muting. The fan should be running at full speed. Reduce input signal somewhat and the amp should return to normal gain within 1-2 minutes. If the amp feels hot and the fan is not running, it needs to be serviced.
NO SOUND, BUT THE GREEN LED IS RESPONDING
CHANNEL 1 PRODUCES DEEP BASS ONLY.

NO SOUND, RED LED ON

Check the position of the CROSSOVER switch on the rear panel. Set on FULL RANGE for normal, independent use of each channel.
CHANNEL 2 INPUT SEEMS DEAD.
The amp mutes briefly when turned on and off to prevent thumps. If the amp overheats severely, it will mute until it cools off. The fan will be running at full speed, and sound should resume in less than a minute. If the amp feels hot and the fan is not running, it needs to be serviced.

BACKGROUND HUM

AMPLIFIER SOUNDS DISTORTED.
If the red CLIP LED is flashing, the amplifier is being played beyond its normal rated power. GuardRail circuitry will reduce volume somewhat to prevent severe overdrive, but if the input signal is further increased, the limiter can be overridden, with increased distortion. If the speakers or speaker cables are shorted or defective, the amplifier may distort at lower-than-normal levels, with increased flashing of the red CLIP LED. This should be checked by trying an alternate speaker and cable. If too many speakers are connected to each channel (impedance below 4 ohms), the amp will overload more easily and will probably run hot. If the sound is distorted or garbled without flashing the red CLIP LED, the distortion is not occurring inside the amplifier. Either the speaker is bad or the input signal is distorted. Confirm that the speaker is OK by trying a different unit. Input overload can occur if the amplifier Gain controls are set too low, and the input source is overdriven to compensate Reduce the source volume until the distortion clears up, and increase amp Gain to reach the desired level. It is generally desireable to keep the amp gains at or near their full, clockwise, position. Check all input connections. Do not plug two different sources into the same channel. Use a mixer to blend sources.

Balanced XLR or TRS cables are better for long runs. Hum can be a problem when connecting to TV-cable rigs, since the TV cable often creates a ground conflict. Request or install a TV-cable isolator to reduce this problem. Hum can also occur earlier in the signal chain, depending on the types of connections. It often helps to plug everything into the same AC strip, if the total power consumption is not excessive. As a last resort, mild hum can sometimes be reduced by lowering the amp gain, and increasing the source gain to compensate, but you must ensure that the source can deliver the extra volume without overload distortion. If this does not reduce hum, it is coming from the source.
AMPLIFIER NEEDS SERVICING
The following conditions indicate possible unsafe conditions that require service before using. If observed, unplug the AC cord from the wall and when safe, remove the amp for servicing. If the amplifier emits smoke or burning smells If the case is severely dented or deformed If the amplifier is soaked with any fluid If internal parts sound loose If the AC breaker trips when power is applied If the amplifier is dropped, carefully inspect for damage or loose parts before attempting to use.
