input connections
Unbalanced (most common)
To connect your audio source to the crown amplifier you will need
cables with rca connectors on the source end and bare wire on the
SLS
amplifier end. The crown amplifier channels are labeled cH1
and cH2. Both channels are identical so you can choose which
to use for right and left depending on your personal preference.
attach the bare wires from your cable to the phoenix style
connector provided in the amplifier box. note the location of the
positive and ground wires on the phoenix connector. You must run
a jumper wire from the ground terminal to the negative terminal;
see figure 1.
Balanced
when using the
SLS
in a commercial installation it might be
necessary to connect the amplifier using balanced wiring.
connect the wires from your source equipment to the phoenix
connector. Be sure to observe proper polarity when connecting the
wires to the phoenix connector. if your source equipment uses Xlr
connectors please confirm the polarity or pin out of your source
equipment before terminating the phoenix connector. See figure 2
