5.  Identify the transformer’s primary winding – this is the red/black flying lead fitted with a male connector. Plug the female 

connector removed in Step 4 into this. Note the pin and latch orientation – the connectors will only mate one way.

6.  If configuring the zone output for 100 V-line operation, plug the transformer’s secondary winding – the other flying lead  

(blue/mauve/white) - into the second 

ZONE O/P socket; this will be the one paired with the socket unplugged in Step 4, 

and closer to the 

SPEAKER OUTPUTS connector. These are: CON43 (Zone 1), CON44 (Zone 2), CON45 (Zone 3) and 

CON46 (Zone 4). Note that CON43 is orientated at 180° relative to the other three. See diagram on previous page.

7.  If configuring the zone output for 70 V-line operation, plug the transformer’s other flying lead (blue/mauve/white) into the 

ZONE O/P connector vacated in Step 4.

8.  For each zone being converted to 70/100 V-line operation, enable the channel’s 65 Hz hi-pass filter by moving the appropriate 

jumper from OFF to ON: these are J3 (Zone 1), J4 (Zone 2), J8 (Zone 3) and J9 (Zone 4). This is important, as low frequency 
signals at high level can saturate the transformer cores, causing unpleasant distortion and possibly activating the amplifier’s 
limiter circuitry. See diagram below for location of PCB jumpers.

9.  If converting further Zone outputs to 70/100 V-line operation, repeat Steps 3 to 8 for each output.
10.  Replace the cover, using the original screws.
11.  Mark the checkboxes below the 

SPEAKER OUTPUTS connector with a felt-tip pen to indicate the mode of operation for 

each channel.
