5.2.1  Mains 

The mains appliance inlet. You must use standard earthed mains cord. 
 
Important! 
This equipment should only be connected to 230VAC, 50Hz mains network! 
The mains plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded! 

5.2.2  Speaker Outputs 

Neutrik  Speakon-Jack  combo  outlets.  They  are  connected  parallel  inside  the  amplifier.  Both  of  speakon  or 
6.3mm jack plugs are suitable to connect speaker cabinets. 
The minimum load impedance should not be less than 2.66ohms. 
 
Note: 
The speakon connector is a more stable, robust and reliable solution. Use this - if you have one - instead of 
jack! Avoid long speaker cables and low quality plugs in order to maintain sound quality and volume. 
The amplifier can be used without speakers as well. 
 
Warning! 
There is dangerous voltage on the speaker output! Connect the cabinets to the amplifier before switching on 
and do not touch the hot pole of the speaker jack! 

5.2.3  Ventilation cutouts 

Do not cover the ventilation cutouts! Insufficient ventilating causes overheating, which can cause permanent 
damage to the power stage. 
 
Note: 
Overheating or fault of power stage is displayed by the Mute LED. 
If this occurs, switch off the amplifier, wait for 30 minutes before then switching it on again! If the Mute LED 
stays lit after the ventilator test /2-3 seconds/ then the amplifier has to be brought to a qualified technician for 
repair.
