Installation Precautions

 (continued)

• Under no circumstances turn off the power protection

circuit unless your amplifier can handle the combined 

impedance of all zones activated.

 

For example: 

With the power protection circuit switch in the “Disabled” 

position, an AE6SW6 with six pairs of 8 ohm speakers 

connected will present the amplifier with a 1.33 ohm

load per channel. This may damage your amplifier or 

cause it to shut down. 

With the power protection circuit switch “Enabled”, an AE6SW6

with six pairs of 8 ohm speakers connected will present 

the amplifier with a 4.33 ohm load per channel which 

will not present a problem for most amplifiers. 

Consult your authorized dealer and/or the owner’s

manual for your amplifier for complete details.

• Power handling without the protection circuit switch 

engaged is 140 watts per channel.

• Power handling with the protection circuit switch 

engaged is 70 watts per channel.
