Audio Output Connections
Channels 1 and 2 Loop Out RCA Jacks
These jacks enable the audio input connected to channel 1 and 2 jacks to pass on to an additional
amplifier. Both the Speaker Level input and channels 1 and 2 line level inputs are present at the Loop
Outputs jacks at all times. The same volume level of the signal present at the 1 and 2 inputs jacks will
be present at the Loop Out Jacks. The Channel 1 and 2 Level controls do not affect the Loop Output
level.
Speakers Output for Channels 1 and 2 (Zone 1)
Detach the green connector block by pulling it away from the Zamp Quattro rear panel. This makes
attaching speaker wire far more convenient. Connect the appro and – terminals to the
corresp and – wires from your speakers.
Note:
The minimum speaker load impedance is 4 ohms.
Speakers Output for Channels 3 and 4 (Zone 2)
Detach the green connector block by pulling it away from the Zamp Quattro rear panel. This makes it
much easier to handle and attach the speaker wire. Connect the appro and – terminals to the
corresponding wires from your speakers.
Note:
The minimum speaker load impedance is 4 ohms.
Note:
The speaker connector blocks can accept bare wires as large as AWG12. The ends of
the wires should be twisted tightly and/or tinned to prevent stray wire strands that could short
circuit the amplifier.
WARNING:
Never combine the Ch 1 negative (-) connection to the Ch 2
negative (-) connection! Never combine the Ch 3 negative (-)
connection to the Ch 4 negative (-) connection! The Zamp Quattro
is not compatible with speaker wiring where two speakers share the
same negative wire. Combining the negatives of any channels
could seriously damage the amplifier! Please note that some
speaker selectors combine the negative connections. This type of
speaker selector is not compatible with the Zamp Quattro.
