M300 Rear Panel Connections

M300 Rear Panel

Never Connect Either the Positive or Negative Speaker Output to Any Ground Contact!

Connecting any Speaker Output on the M300 to Ground will cause the amplifier to go into protection and could damage the amplifier and void the warranty.

1)Power Switch: Power is on when the switch is toggled to the I position and off in the O position.

2)Input Connections and RCA/XLR switch: When using RCA cables for the input insure that the RCA/XLR switch is pressed in to the RCA position. When using XLR cables insure that the switch is out in the XLR position. This will generally insure ideal grounding and minimize ground noise from interfering with the audio signal.

3)Output Connections: Attach your loudspeakers to the output connec- tors, insure that the polarity of each

speaker is correct and the same so that no phase inversion can occur.

Never Connect Either the Positive or Negative Speaker Output to Any Ground Contact!

4)IEC power cord jack: Connect a heavy gauge power cord from this jack to the wall power supply. Note the power setting indicated on the back of the amplifier before connecting the power.

When all connections to and from the amplifier have been made then double check everything, insure that the pre- amplifier is powered on and set to a Mute setting and power on the M300.
