SPEAKER OUTPUTS CHANNEL 1 (13)

Two r/4 ” speaker outputs are provided. These jacks are in parallel. The impedance switch for channel 1 selects the total impedance plugged into the channel 1 output.

NOTE: When switch (mono/stereo) is switched to stereo use the numbers 16, 8, and 4 that are above the channel 1 impedance switch.

When switch (mono/stereo) is switched to mono use the numbers 8, 4, and 2 that are below the channel 1 impedance switch.

SPEAKER OUTPUTS CHANNEL 2 (14)

Two ‘/4 fl speaker outputs are provided. These jacks are in parallel. The impedance switch for channel 2 selects the total impedance plugged into the channel 2 output.

NOTE: Not used for mono operation.

IMPEDANCE SELECTOR CHANNEL 1 (l5)

Used to select the impedance for the speaker cabinet bemg used.

NOTE: 4, 8, and 16 ohms are for stereo mode. 2,4, and 8 ohms are for mono mode (see mono/stereo switch).

IMPEDANCE SELECTOR CHANNEL 2 (16)

Used to select the impedance for the speaker cabinet being used. 4, 8, and 16 ohms are for stereo mode.

MONO/STEREO SWITCH (17)

Used to select mono or stereo operation of the amplifier.

NOTE: When in mono mode, only channel 1 inputs, outputs, and controls will function. Use channel 1 im- pedance selector, level, presence, resonance, and line out controls. Make sure BOTH standby switches are on (both green LED’s are illuminated).

When in stereo mode channel 1 and channel 2 may be operated independently.

LINE OUTPUT LEVEL CHANNEL 1 (18)

Controls the signal level at the line output jack. This control may be used as a balance control when slave power amp/speaker systems are driven from the line output.
