Crown recommends using pre-built or profes- sionally wired, balanced line (two-conductor plus shield), 22-24 gauge cables and connec- tors. Depending upon which amplifi er input you choose, you should use either 3-pin male XLR connectors, TRS phone connectors, or ter- minal forks at the amplifi er inputs.

Unbalanced line may also be used but may result in noise over long cable runs.

Note: Amplifi er input connectors not used for audio signal input may be used for daisy-chaining of the audio signal to other components.

Refer to Figure 3.3 for correct connector pin assignments for balanced wiring, and Figure 3.4 for correct connector pin assignments for unbalanced wiring.

NOTE: Custom wiring should only be performed by qualified personnel.
