CONNECTING YOUR SPEAKERS 

You’re down to the last few connections and your UAM4 will be ready to go.  
Your speakers are going to be connected to the speaker output terminals 
J6, J7, J8, and J9.  If you are using your UAM4 as a stereo amplifier keep 
reading.  If you are operating your UAM4 in mono mode, go to the “

MONO 

SPEAKER CONNECTION

” section. 

 

STEREO SPEAKER CONNECTION 

If you are using your UAM4 as a stereo amplifier then you will connect the 
left speaker to the ‘LFT+’, J6, and ‘LFT-‘, J7 terminals and the right speaker 
to the ‘RT+’, J8, and ‘RT-‘, J9, terminals.  It is important that the speakers be 
connected to these terminals with the proper polarity.  In other words look at 
your speakers and you should see there is a red and black terminal on each 
one.  (It is possible that your speakers have some other polarity indication 
on them but this is the most common.  Consult the owner’s manual if they 
are different.)  It is important that the two speakers be connected with the 
same polarity, (red terminal to LFT+ or RT+ and Black terminals to LFT- and 
RT- for example), to the UAM4.  While it will not damage the speakers or 
UAM4 if they are connected with different polarity, the sound will not be as 
expected.  Please refer to the “

DETAILED INPUT/OUTPUT 

INFORMATION

” and “

NEAT-TO-KNOW INFORMATION: Determining 

Speaker Phase

” sections of this manual for more detailed information.

That’s it for the speaker connection.  Now go to the “

POWER SUPPLY 

CONNECTION

” section. 

 

MONO SPEAKER CONNECTION 

If you are using your UAM4 as a mono amplifier then your speakers will still 
be connected to the speaker output terminals J6, J7, J8, and J9 but there 
will only be one channel input, (which is applied to the right input terminals), 
instead of the stereo left and right channels.  Select the mono configuration 
below that you set up in the previous sections and follow the instructions. 
 

40 WATT MONO OPERATION SPEAKER CONNECTIONS 

In the 40 watt mono configuration the output terminals are connected in 
parallel.  In other words the ‘LFT+’ and ‘RT+’ terminals are the same and 
‘LFT-’ and RT-’ terminals are the same.  The speaker(S) may be 
connected to these two sets of terminals.  Please note that these 
terminals are connected together on the UAM4 board.   

Warning: DO NOT remove the jumpers between ‘L+’ and ‘R+’ and 

between ‘L-’ and ‘R-’ jumper points and simply connect the output 

terminals or speaker leads to together at any point off the board.  

Doing so may cause undesired results, (distortion, feedback, etc.) 

and damage to the UAM4.
