Speaker connection

WARNING: Make sure that the device is not plugged into the mains before making any connections. It is also 

recommended to turn off or disconnect all other devices associated while making connections to the product. 

Check the impedance of your speakers. When using a pair of speakers, you can use speakers with an impedance of 

between 4 and 8 ohms. BE SURE TO USE THE MATCHING TERMINALS.

Speaker terminal

Speaker cable or 

U-type terminal

1- Unscrew the terminal by hand.

2- Insert the loudspeaker cable (refer to the diagram below).

3- Screw the terminal.

4- Repeat the same operation for the other 3 terminals.

Connect the speaker cables with the amplifier after they have been connected to with the speakers.

 

Please notice the polarity of the cable and do not mix up the positive and the negative ends.

Never operate the amplifier without having first connect the loudspeakers. The operation of a tube amplifier tube is 

different from transistor amplifier; without speakers connected, energy is dissipated through the transformers of the 

amplifier which will damage the product and reduce it’s useful life.

Make  sure  that  no  wires  can  short  the  speaker  outputs.  Make  sure  that  the  speaker  terminals  are tight enough to 

ensure a good electrical connection. If the terminal screws are not tight enough, the sound quality may be affected. 

Use only dedicated wire to connect the speakers. A section of 1.5 mm² or more is recommended if the cable length is 

greater than 3m.
