this first amplifier through the Uman input and output connectors (daisy-
chaning). The first
V8 amplifier connected by Ethernet then acts as an
Ethernet to Uman bridge for remote control purposes.

®
Connection
Both SPEAKON
®
connectors are connected to the channel A and chan-
nel B amplifier outputs. Note that the wiring configuration of the second
(bottom) SPEAKON
®
connector is inverted (channel A and B outputs
swapped).
The pin configuration of the SPEAKON
®
connectors is as follows:
Upper SPEAKON
®
: Pin 1+ Channel A amplifier output
Pin 1− Channel A ground
Pin 2+ Channel B amplifier output
Pin 2− Channel B ground
Bottom SPEAKON
®
: Pin 1+ Channel B amplifier output
Pin 1− Channel B ground
Pin 2+ Channel A amplifier output
Pin 2− Channel A ground
WARNING!
SPEAKON
®
connectors marked with the lightning flashes indicate
high voltages that are potentially life threatening.
Wiring to these terminals requires installation by an instructed person or
the use of ready-made leads or cords.
Custom wiring should only be carried out by qualified personnel.
To prevent electric shock, do not operate the amplifier with any of the
conductor portion of the speaker wire exposed.
NOTE: For reasons of safety and performance do only use high-qual-
ity fully insulated speaker cables of stranded copper wire. Use the
largest wire size that is economically and physically practical. Make
sure that the cables are not longer than necessary.
IMPORTANT: When connecting speaker cabinets in parallel (especial-
ly in Paralell Mono operation mode), always use both SPEAKON
®
con-
nectors where possible for current sharing. Not doing so may cause
permanent damage to the connectors and may considerably reduce
performance.
