Installation Precautions
(continued)
• Under no circumstances turn off the power protection
circuit unless your amplifier can handle the combined
impedance of all zones activated.
For example:
With the power protection circuit switch in the “OFF”
position, an AE4SW with four pairs of 8 ohm speakers
connected will present the amplifier with a 2 ohm
load per channel. This may damage your amplifier or
cause it to shut down.
With the power protection circuit switch “ON”, an AE4SW
with four pairs of 8 ohm speakers connected will present
the amplifier with a 6 ohm load per channel which
will not present a problem for most amplifiers.
Consult your authorized dealer and/or the owner’s
manual for your amplifier for complete details.
• Power handling without the protection circuit switch
engaged is 140 watts per channel.
• Power handling with the protection circuit switch
engaged is 70 watts per channel.
