NOTES:
1.
Do not connect the McIntosh Amplifier Speaker Negative
Terminal Connection directly to the Vehicle Chassis. Also
do not connect the Loudspeaker Negative Terminal
Connection directly to the Vehicle Chassis. Failure to
observe the connection procedures as outlined in this
owners manual could result in damage to your McIntosh
Amplifier.
2. For additional connection information, refer to the owners
manual(s) for any component(s) connected to the MCC82
Amplifier.
3. There is a built-in turn on delay which will mute the speaker
outputs for approximately two seconds when the amplifier is
turned on.
4. It is very important that loudspeaker cables of adequate size
be used in your music system, to ensure that there will be no
power loss or heating. Cable size is specified in Gauge
numbers or AWG, (American Wire Gauge). The smaller the
Gauge number, the larger the wire size:
If your loudspeaker cables are 25 feet (7.62m) or less, use
at least 18 Gauge (AWG) wire size or larger.
If your loudspeaker cables are over 25 feet (38.1m) or
less, use at least 16 Gauge (AWG) wire size or larger.
