Speaker leads connect by means of removable terminal block connectors supplied with the unit.
Strip speaker leads 1/4” and insert into connector observing proper polarity. With a small, flat-
blade screwdriver, tighten the screw until the leads are held securely in place. Inspect for possible
shorts or broken wires.
NOTE: Class 2 wiring must be used on the speaker terminals to comply with UL
requirements.
CAUTION: Do not connect either speaker terminal to ground. This will cause a short
circuit which may damage the amplifier, speaker, or both. Similarly, do not connect any
speaker terminal to ground.
CAUTION: The speaker terminals represent a shock hazard as they carry 70.7V and 100V
when driven with an audio signal. Disconnect the amplifier from the AC power source
when working on these terminals.
