How to Connect for Bi-Amp
If the Loudspeaker’s impedance is in-between
the available connections, use the nearest lower
impedance connection. Refer to “General Informa-
tion” Note 4 on page 2 for additional information.
WARNING: Loudspeaker terminals are hazard-
ous live and present a risk of electric
shock. For additional instruction on
making Loudspeaker Connections con-
tact your McIntosh Dealer or McIn-
tosh Technical Support.
15. Attach the Terminal Connections Cover to the
MC611 Rear Panel with the previously removed
Screws. Refer to figure 6.
16. Connect the MC611 power cord to an active AC
outlet.
careful to observe the correct polarities.

Spade Lug or Wire Connections:
13. Locate the Terminal Connections Cover from the
inside of the MC611 shipping carton. Insert the
just prepared Loudspeaker hookup cables thru the
cover opening on the right side. Refer to figure 6.
14. Connect the Loudspeaker hookup cables to the
MC611 Negative Output Terminal and Positive
Output Terminal indentified as 2Ω (ohms), 4Ω
(ohms) or 8Ω (ohms) connection to match the
impedance of the Loudspeaker, being careful to
observe the correct polarities. Insert the spade
lug connector or prepared section of the cable end
into the terminal side access hole, and tighten the
terminal cap until the cable is firmly clamped into
the terminals so the lugs or wire cannot slip out.
Refer to figures 7 and 8.
Note: The illustration in figure 6 is connections for
8Ω (ohms) Loudspeakers.
Banana Plugs are for use in the United States and
Canada only:
7. Locate the Terminal Connections Cover from the
inside of the MC611 shipping carton. Insert the
just prepared Loudspeaker hookup cables thru the
cover opening on the right side. Refer to figure 5.
8. Attach the previously prepared bare wire cable
ends into the banana plugs and secure
the connections. Refer to figure F.
9. Rotate the top of the Output Terminal
Post clockwise until it is finger tight.
Refer to figure G. Then using the Mc
-
Intosh Wrench, rotate the top of the
Output Terminal one quarter of a turn
(90° ).
Do not over tighten.
Refer to
figure E.
10. Referring to figure H, connect the
Loudspeaker hookup cables with ba-
nana plugs into the hole
at the top of the MC611
Negative and Positive
Output Terminals. The
terminals are indentified
as 2Ω (ohms), 4Ω (ohms) or 8Ω (ohms) connection
to match the impedance of the Loudspeaker, being
