AMPLIFIER OPERATION GUIDANCE
100V Line System
For 100V line systems, connect the amplifier to the first speaker in the system using double-insulated speaker wire which has
adequate current rating to handle the total output of the amplifier.
Connect the “100V” output terminal to the positive (+) connection of the speaker and “COM” output to the negative (-) connection of
the speaker. Connect further speakers in parallel to the first speaker with all positive terminals and connected together and all
negative terminals connected together as shown below.
A 100V line speaker system can comprise of many speakers connected together. The determining factor for how many speakers can
be used on a single amplifier is the power rating. For most purposes, it is advised to connect as many speakers as needed with a
combined wattage of no more than 90% of the amplifier’s output power rating.
The terminals of a 100V speaker are connected to a transformer and in some cases, this transformer may be “tapped” for different
power ratings. These tappings can be used to adjust the wattage (and output volume) of each speaker in the system to help achieve
the ideal total power of the system for the amplifier.
The mixer amplifier is featured of 6 speaker zone outputs, either one of six zone or total six zone power loading shall be equivalent or
no higher than the rated power of the amplifier.
