Connecting Outputs
Speakers can be connected using Banana plugs, Speakon plugs or bare wire to the binding posts on the
rear panel of the amplifier. Consult the Wire-Gauge-Chart to determine suitable wire gauges for different
load impedances and cable lengths.
The red binding posts are considered „hot“, connected to the positive poles of the speakers, while the black
binding-posts are Signal Ground, connected to the negative poles of the speakers.
Never connect a „hot“ (red) Output to the Ground or to other „hot“ (red) Outputs! Always turn off the amplifier
before making connections.
Connecting Power
The actual current draw, the amplifier demands from the AC mains, depends on many factors (its load,
output level or the crest factor of its program material).
The power requirement is rated under typical music conditions, with both channels driven so those peaks
are just at the clipping point.
