70V LINE
Strip the speaker wiring back about 1/2", loosen the
screw enough to loop the wire around the shaft of the
screw (clockwise), and tighten down the screw with a
slot-head screwdriver.
Note: Make sure the taps on the speakers add up to
no more than the rated power for the amplifier being
used.
Connecting the PATX60
to a Constant-Voltage
Distribution System
In a constant-voltage distribution system, all the
speakers are connected in parallel. This makes it
easy to add or remove speakers from the system
without having to recalculate the impedance of the
load on the amplifier.
Simply add the taps on the speakers connected to
the system and make sure the total power indicated
by the taps does not exceed the rated power of the
amplifier.
