Note
• All connections must be correct: L (left) to L, R (right) to
R, “+” to “+”, and “−” to “−” . If the connections are faulty,
no sound will be heard from the speakers . Also, if the
polarity of the speaker connections is incorrect, the
sound will be unnatural and lack bass .
• Because this power amplifier is of the floating balanced
type, the following types of connections are not possible .
- Connecting between two “+” (or two “−”) terminals of
the left and right channels (Fig . 1) .
- Connecting each “−” terminal of the unit’s left and
right channels to the opposite channel speakers
(cross connection, Fig . 2) .
- Connecting the left/right channel “−” terminals (or
accidentally allowing them to come in contact) with
the metal part of the rear panel of this unit .
