ABOUT THE ZX-7 AND RX-7

Congratulations and thank you for purchasing your new Lexicon

Power Amplifier. This is a reference-quality amplifier designed to

meet the highest standards of power and performance under the

most extreme operating conditions. Equipped with advanced

thermal, current, DC, and speaker protection, your new amplifier

delivers reliable and exceptional performance with most

loudspeakers, including mismatched, reactive, and unusual loads.

With embedded protection against short circuits, component

failures, mis-wiring, and internal faults, the incredible power and

wide-ranging flexibility of the ZX-7 and RX-7 amplifiers confirm

that they are at home in the most sophisticated and demanding

home theaters.

Both the ZX-7 and RX-7 are fully balanced power amplifiers from

input to output with completely symmetrical circuit design. In

other words, each channel consists of two complete amplifier

circuits; one driving the positive input signal and the other driving

the negative input signal. With 7 channels, this translates into 14

separate amplifier circuits per chassis. The advantage of this

topology over single-ended designs is that it exhibits lower noise,

lower distortion, immunity from stray electronic fields and

anomalies in the input signal from outside interference. This results

in significant audible benefits including increased overall clarity and

more pronounced differences between soft and loud passages.

Internally, the ZX-7 and RX-7 both utilize two massive toroidal

transformers and lots of filter capacitance to ensure rock-solid low-

frequency reproduction and ample power reserves.

The ZX-7 delivers 300 Watts per channel into 8 Ohms, while the

RX-7 delivers 200 Watts per channel into 8 Ohms.

Equipped with gold-plated speaker output connectors, the rear

panel includes balanced or unbalanced audio input via RCA and

XLR connectors. A trigger input connector allows the amplifiers to

be controlled with associated components such as the MC-12HD or

MC-8 Digital Controllers. The ZX-7 and RX-7 amplifiers include

advanced optically coupled protection for each channel.

In order to receive the maximum peak performance from your

Lexicon amplifier, please take a few minutes and completely read

this manual. This important information will help you make certain

that these Lexicon amplifiers are properly configured for operation

with the rest of the equipment within your system.
