manual(s) for any component(s) connected to the MCC302

5. There is a built-in turn on delay which will mute the speaker
outputs for approximately two seconds when the amplifier is
turned on.
6. It is very important that loudspeaker cables of adequate size
be used in your music system, to ensure that there will be no
power loss or heating. If your loudspeaker cables are 25 feet
(7.62m) or less, use at least 16 Gauge wire size or larger.
7. The MCC302 Line Level OUTPUTs are wired as a Y
connection with the INPUTs to pass the input signals on to
additional amplifiers (keep cable lengths as short as
possible). The McIntosh MX406 Control Center is capable of
driving several additional power amplifiers with no
degradation of the signal.
8. The MCC302 can accept speaker level inputs at its Input
Jacks. Refer to the diagram for
connection.
