Impedance Match Switches
Most speakers are rated at 4, 6, or 8 ohms. If connecting
speakers of different impedances to an amplifier, an average
impedance must be determined; i.e. one pair of 4 ohm speakers
is the equivalent of 2 pair of 8 ohm speakers. All 6 ohm speak-
ers should be entered into the equation as 4 ohm speakers. All
volume controls connected to an amplifier channel should have
the same Impedance Match setting.

Same Position
16X 8X 4X 2X
1X 2X 4X 8X
1X 2X 4X 8X
Never create settings that cause the amplifi er to see an imped-
ance below its minimum impedance rating as this can cause
damage to the amplifi er.
