a 16-ohm array, then connect a second 16-ohm array in parallel to the first to
create an overall 8-ohm speaker load. Speaker load calculators are available on
the internet to help with the math.
4.
Connect the negative lead of the speaker wire to the COM terminal on the
amplifier, then connect the positive lead to either the 4-ohm or 8-ohm terminal,
depending on the overall impedance of your speaker array.
5.
(Optional) Plug a dynamic microphone into the MIC 1 Input (17).
6.
(Optional) Either plug a dynamic microphone into the MIC 2 Input (16) or plug a
line-level device, such as the headphone output of an mp3 player or
smartphone, into the AUX 1 Input (14). If using the MIC 2 Input, set the AUX
1/MIC 2 Switch (15) to the MIC 2 position, otherwise if using the AUX 1 Input, set
it to the AUX 1 position.
7.
(Optional) Either plug a dynamic microphone into the MIC 3 Input (13) or plug a
line-level device, such as a CD player, into the AUX 2 Input (11). If using the MIC 3
Input, set the AUX 2/MIC 3 Switch (12) to the MIC 3 position, otherwise if using
the AUX 2 input, set it to the AUX 2 position.
8.
Ensure that the Master Volume Control (6) is turned fully counterclockwise to
the minimum position.
9.
Set the MIC 1 Mixing/Volume Control (1), the AUX 1/MIC 2 Mixing/Volume
Control (2), and the AUX 2/MIC 3 Mixing/Volume Control (3) knobs to the
midpoint.
10.
Ensure that the Power Switch (8) is in the OFF position.
11.
Plug the AC Power Cord (9) into a nearby AC power outlet, then flip the Power
Switch (8) to the ON Position.
12.
Plug in and power on all connected equipment. Start audio playback as desired
on the various inputs.
13.
Slowly increase the Master Volume Control (6) to comfortable volume level.
Adjust the appropriate Mixing/Volume Controls (1, 2, and 3) to balance the
inputs as desired.
Congratulations, your new amplifier is properly installed and operating!
