SPADE CONNECTOR: (Figure 7)
When connecting your speakers to the amplifier using spade connector, unscrew the red and black caps on
the binding post, be sure not to completely remove or unscrew the red and black caps. Insert the spade
connector into the binding post and tighten the caps down on the spade connector. To reduce the risk of
shock or damage to your amplifier, be sure that the wire connected to one binding post does not come in
contact with that of another.
MONO BRIDGE CONNECTIONS: (Figure 8)
Mono bridge operation connections will follow the above descriptions, however, when operating in mono
bridge operation the speaker connections will run between the two positive (red) leads. Use channel two
positive output terminal for the speaker’s negative connection and the channel one positive output terminal
for the speaker’s positive connection.
Typical speaker output using spade connectors.
Insert bare wire into the binding post and tighten.

STEREO CONNECTIONS USING THE NEUTRIK SPEAKON OUTPUT CONNECTORS:
Recent regulatory requirements in Europe have outlawed the use of the dual banana plug and force amplifier users
to terminate their speaker cables with spade lugs or bare wire ends. This is not advantageous to most users that
want to reconfigure their systems or quickly change out an amplifier. The Neutrik Speakon connector provides the
most convenient solution to this problem, eliminating the need for spade lugs or bare wire end cables. Major
speaker manufacturers have been using Speakon connectors on their products for years, so chances you are
ready to use the Speakon connection. With Speakon connectors, you can connect straight from the amplifier to the
speaker. The Speakon connector used on this amplifier meets all known safety regulations. Once wired correctly,
the connector cannot be plugged in backwards, causing the type of inverted polarity situations that have become
common with banana hookups. This connection will provide a safe, secure and reliable method of connecting your
speakers to your new amplifier. You can purchase the Speakon NL4FC connectors from your local audio dealer.
