Figure 2-7 — Audio output connections

The audio outputs can be balanced or unbalanced depending on the wiring (see figure 2-8 on the next page). The length of exposed wires in the captive screw connector is critical (see the note and caution on the next page).

NBalanced output wiring produces a +6 dB gain. Unbalanced output wiring produces 0 dB gain.
