Getting Started
1.
Speaker Connections. Speakers are connected to the internal amplifiers by the
white 6 pin AMP mate n lock connector on the rear panel. The mating connector
is AMP MATE-N-LOC 350715-1 (Digikey part number A14288-ND). The
individual pins are Amp 350552-1 (Digikey A14303-ND) for .130 - .200 inch
diameter wire insulation. Up to 14 gauge wire is accommodated by these pins.
There is a relatively cheap hand tool that will crimp these pins. It is a Molex
63811-1000, Digikey part number WM9999-ND for $38. A better tool is the
AMP 90546-1. A cheap tool to remove the pins if (when?) you make a mistake is
AMP 305183-R, Mouser part number 571-305183. A better tool is the AMP
318851-1.
a.
Rack mounting or any enclosure other than a speaker cabinet. Speaker
connections must be made with Class 1 wiring to the Speakon connector
on the faceplate.
2.
We recommend using twisted pair wiring to the speakers of at least 16 gauge.
Both + and – wires are “hot”, so they should not be allowed to touch any
other wire, the amplifier cabinet, or ground
. The channels are brought out to
the plug as shown in the drawings below.
3.
Channel 1 is the amplifier in the ASP module and is connected to the Low
Frequency speaker in SP1, SP2 and SP3 models. In SP2 models, Channel 2 is the
slave amplifier and is connected to a High Frequency speaker. In SP3 models,
Channel 2 is connected to the Mid Frequency speaker and Channel 3 is connected
to the High Frequency speaker.
