CAUTION

: Be sure to have the rear AC LINE POWER switch (Item #15) turned OFF (O) when 

changing the position of this switch and when making the corresponding speaker connection 
changes.  

 

9.  FUSE

.  When required, replace only with a fuse of the same type and rating:  

 

§ 

120 V Version: 6.25 AMP 250 VAC, SLOW BLOW.  

§ 

240 V Version: 3.15 A Time-Lag 250 VAC.   

 

NOTE: 

Replacement with a fuse of higher rating will not protect the amplifier and will void the warranty.  

 

10.  SPEAKER Terminals

.  These plug-in 4-terminal screw type connectors permit speaker wire sizes up to 

12 gauge. When making connections for the STEREO mode, be sure to observe the "+” and "–" polarity 
markings, just under the LEFT & RIGHT markings, for each wire pair going to the speakers. 

 

CAUTION:

  When making connections for the BRIDGED mode, remember, only one speaker is being 

attached per amplifier pair.   Be sure to observe the outer "+” and "–" polarity markings on each side 
of the word "BRIDGED" on the panel above the 4-terminal connector when connecting the 2-
conductor wire to the speaker. 

 

11.  Grounding Screw

.  Provides a means for chassis connection to earth ground or to other A/V products to 

aid in the reduction of system noise, etc., where needed. 

 

12.  REMOTE MASTER ON/OFF and MUTE CONTROL (CI1 & CI2)

. These two Stereo Mini Jack 

connections allow each individual channel pair of the PA435X to be powered ON and OFF and muted by 
a control voltage ranging between 5 and 30 Volts DC (16mA @ 12 V).  When connected to the C01 and 
C02 jacks from Zones 7 & 8 on the Xantech MRC88, this will allow remote Power ON/OFF control directly 
from the MRC88 System Controller. This allows the ‘A’ & ’B’ amplifier channel pairs to be individually 
controlled by Zone 7 & 8 of the MRC88. (Tip = ON/OFF Standby Control; Ring = Mute Control; Sleeve = 
gnd). 

 

NOTE: The front panel POWER switch (item #3) must be left in the Manual OFF (Out) position and the 
Master AC Line Switch (item #13) set to ON (I) to permit the REMOTE MASTER ON/OFF CONTROL to 
operate.  See also CAUTION notes, Fig. 9. 

 

13.  3-Conductor AC Line Cord Receptacle

.  Standard IEC male receptacle for plug-in of a 3-conductor 

power line cord.  Depending on the application, plug the line cord into a switched or un-switched 120V 60 
Hz AC outlet (or 240 VAC 50 Hz on the 240 V version). 

 

14.  Rear Panel ON/OFF LED

.  This LED indicates the power ON/OFF condition of the entire PA435X, 

whether activated by a REMOTE MASTER ON/OFF CONTROL (item #11) or from the rear panel AC 
Line Power switch (item # 15). 

 

15.  Master AC LINE ON/OFF Switch

.  Turns power OFF to the entire PA435X, regardless of front panel 

POWER switch conditions.  Must be placed in the ON (I) position for the other power switching functions 
to work.
