AC POWER INLET

This is the receptacle for an IEC line cord, which provides AC power to the unit. Connect the line cord to this 

connector to provide power to the unit. Damage to the equipment may result if improper line voltage is used. (See 

line voltage marking on unit). 

Never break off the ground pin on any equipment. It is provided for your safety. If the outlet used does not have a 

ground pin, a suitable grounding adapter should be used, and the third wire should be grounded properly. To pre-

vent the risk of shock or fire hazard, always make sure that the amplifier and all associated equipment is properly 

grounded.

NOTE: FOR UK ONLY

As the colors of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the colored markings 

identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: (1) The wire that is colored green and yellow must be 

connected to the terminal that is marked by the letter E, or by the Earth symbol, or colored green or green and 

yellow. (2) The wire that is colored blue must be connected to the terminal that is marked with the letter N, or the 

color black. (3) The wire that  is colored brown must be connected to the terminal that is marked with the letter L, 

or the color red.

POWER SWITCH

Placing this switch into the ON position will provide power to the amplifier.

LINE VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH

This selector switch allows the amplifier to be operated at different voltages. Please be sure this is set to the proper 

voltage for your area before turning the amplifier on for the first time. 

NEVER CHANGE POSITION OF THIS 

SWITCH WHILE THE AMP IS ON!

PRIMARY FUSE

The fuse is located within the cap of the fuse holder. If the fuse should fail, IT MUST BE REPLACED WITH THE

SAME TYPE AND VALUE IN ORDER TO AVOID DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT AND TO PREVENT 

VOIDING THE WARRANTY. If the amp repeatedly blows fuses, it should be taken to a factory authorized center 

for repair.

WARNING: THE FUSE SHOULD ONLY BE REPLACED WHEN THE POWER CORD HAS BEEN DISCON-

NECTED FROM ITS POWER SOURCE.

TWIST LOCK OUTPUTS

 

MiniMEGA amplifiers utilize two 2-conductor twist lock connectors for paralleled speaker outputs (4Ω min).

AUX INPUT

 

This 1/8" input jack allows you to connect an external audio device to your amp and play along.
