A.

GENERAL.

The 100-watt output of the basic Model PA300

was designed to drive a single high power speaker.
However, the essential difference between models is
that the PA300-012-NYSB can drive one or two 11-
ohm impedance, high or low power speakers. When
two speakers are used they must be connected in
parallel.

B.

MANUAL CHANGES.

The following changes should be made to the

Model PA300 Installation and Service Instructions
(Part No. 255A198).

Speaker.

The unit is designed to operate with one 11-

ohm impedance speaker or two 11-ohm impedance
low power (58W) or high power (100W) speakers,
connected in parallel and in phase. On FEDERAL
speakers, this can be accomplished by connecting the
two speaker leads marked “1” to the SPEAKER
COMMON control cable lead and the two speaker
leads marked “2” to the SPEAKER HI POWER or
SPEAKER LO POWER control cable leads See the
Control Cable Wiring Diagram (new).
