Input jack
2. POSITIVE (+) BINDING POST
Connect positive speaker wire for one speaker to this post.
3. NEGATIVE (-) BINDING POST
Connect negative speaker wire for one speaker to this post.
4. GROUND TERMINAL
Use to interconnect component chassis when necessary.
5. MAIN POWER SWITCH AND MAGNETIC CIRCUIT BREAKER
. Disconnects AC to one 4-channel bank of the
amplifier. It is recommended that this be left ON at all times during regular use with the exception of whenever ca-
bles are connected/disconnected or when the unit is not going to be used for an extended period of time. In the rare
case where amplifier protection is needed, this switch may turn the unit off. An independent duplicate switch controls
the second 4-channel amplifier bank.
6. AC POWER INLET(S)
Use the included power cords to connect each amplifier bank to an appropriate AC
power source.
7. FAN OUTLET.
Forced air used for cooling exits the amplifier here.
8. VOLTAGE INDICATORS
The 8300 amplifier is equipped with circuitry that automatically detects the AC
voltage and sets the amplifier appropriately. These indicators show the discovered voltage. 120VAC is shown for
line voltage of 100 to 130V; 240VAC is shown for 200 to 260V. Please operate both amplifier banks from the same
voltage.
9. REMOTE TURN-ON ONLY SWITCH
Disables the front power switch. When engaged the amplifier will only
turn-on when the main power switch is engaged
and
a remote turn-on signal is received at the Remote DC Input.
10. REMOTE DC INPUT JACK
With the main power switch(es) set to ON, when the rear panel
REMOTE DC
INPUT JACK
receives a 5-12 VDC signal the amplifier will exit the Standby mode and turn on. When the signal is
removed, the amplifier will return to Standby.
11. SERIAL NUMBER
Shows the unit’s serial number.
