3.
Using a two-conductor speaker wire, connect one end to the input terminals on the
speaker, then connect the other end to the Output terminals on the amplifier. Take
care to maintain polarity with positive to positive and negative to negative.
4.
Repeat step 3 for each of the other seven speakers.
5.
Using an XLR cable (not included), plug one end into the Input on the amplifier,
then plug the other end into the appropriate preamplifier output.
6.
Repeat step 5 for each of the other seven channels.
7.
(Optional) Using the included Trigger Cable, plug one end into the Trigger Input on
the amplifier, then plug the other end into the trigger output on your source device.
8.
Ensure that the Master Power switch is in the OFF position and that the Power
Switch is in the Standby position.
9.
Using the included AC Power Cable, plug the C19 connector on the cable into the
C20 panel connector on the amplifier, then plug the other end into a nearby AC
power outlet. Repeat with the second AC input for 42564. Note that each input
should be plugged into a different AC circuit.
Warning! Do not plug the amplifier into a switched outlet on a preamplifier or other
audio component. The amplifier should be plugged directly into an AC wall outlet.
10.
Ensure that the volume on the preamplifier is set to the minimum level.
11.
Power on all equipment connected to the amplifier, then flip the Master Power
switch on the rear panel to the ON position. Press the Power Switch on the front
panel. The LED will illuminate dimly until the circuitry is properly warmed up. Once
the LED illuminates brightly, the amplifier has finished the start-up process and is
ready for operation.
Note: It is recommended to always turn the amplifier on last and to turn it off first
whenever powering your audio system on or off. This ensures that any pops or
transient spikes, which could cause damage to the delicate speaker coils, are not
sent to your speakers.
Congratulations, your amplifier is connected and ready for use!
