CHAPTER 3 | INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
Connecting Speakers
All speaker connections must use Class 2 Wiring. Class 2 Wiring is required
due to the fact that power is above 10W per channel under normal operating
conditions.
Speakers connect to the captive-wire output terminals (CH1-CH16) on the rear
panel:
Each Zone (1-8) consists of two channels (an L/R pair in Stereo Mode),
and each Channel (1-16) uses a 2-pin captive-wire connector to connect to
speakers.
NOTE:
For wiring runs longer than 80 feet, 14-gauge speaker wire is
recommended.
Speaker Output Connectors
The speaker output connectors consist of two 16 pin captive-wire terminals;
each of the output terminals having a “+” and “-“ terminal.
The label “BTL” on each speaker pair points to the pins that are used when
connecting a single speaker to an input in Bridge Mode.
The following table provides pinout information for the Speaker Output
Terminals
