BARE WIRE CONNECTION: (Figure 9)

When connecting your speakers to the amplifier using bare wire, unscrew the red and black caps on the 
binding post, be sure not to completely remove or unscrew the red and black caps. Strip back the wire 
insulation ½” (13mm). Insert the bare wire into the hole that was reveled by unscrewing the binding post cap. 
After inserting the wire into the binding post hole, screw the binding post cap down on the wire. To reduce the 
risk of shock or damage to your amplifier, be sure that the wire connected to one binding post does not come 
in contact with that of another.

SPADE CONNECTOR: (Figure 10)

When connecting your speakers to the amplifier using spade connector, unscrew the red and black caps on 
the binding post, be sure not to completely remove or unscrew the red and black caps. Insert the spade 
connector into the binding post and tighten the caps down on the spade connector. To reduce the risk of 
shock or damage to your amplifier, be sure that the wire connected to one binding post does not come in 
contact with that of another. 

MONO BRIDGE CONNECTIONS: (Figure 11)

Mono bridge operation connections will follow the above descriptions, however, when operating in mono 
bridge operation the speaker connections will run between the two positive (red) leads. Use channel two 
positive output terminal for the speaker’s negative connection and the channel one positive output terminal 
for the speaker’s positive connection.

Typical speaker output using bare wire. 
Insert bare wire into the binding post and tighten. 

Typical speaker output using  spade connectors. 
Insert bare wire into the binding post and tighten.

STEREO CONNECTIONS USING THE NEUTRIK SPEAKON OUTPUT CONNECTORS:

Recent regulatory requirements in Europe have outlawed the use of the dual banana plug and force amplifier 
users to terminate their speaker cables with spade lugs or bare wire ends. This is not advantageous to most 
users that want to reconfigure their systems or quickly change out an amplifier. The Neutrik Speakon connector 
provides the most convenient solution to this problem, eliminating the need for spade lugs or bare wire end 
cables. Major speaker manufacturers have been using Speakon connectors on their products for years, so 
chances you are ready to use the Speakon connection. With Speakon connectors, you can connect straight from 
the amplifier to the speaker. The Speakon connector used on this amplifier meets all known safety regulations. 
Once wired correctly, the connector cannot be plugged in backwards, causing the type of inverted polarity 
situations that have become common with banana hookups. This connection will provide a safe, secure and 
reliable method of connecting your speakers to your new amplifier. You can purchase the Speakon NL4FC 
connectors from your local audio dealer.
