3.6.3 Parallel-Mono Mode

Typical input and output wiring is shown in

Figure 3.8.

INPUTS: Connect input wiring to Channel 1. Refer to Figure 3.4 for input connector pin assignments.

OUTPUTS: Install a jumper wire between the positive outputs of both Channel 1 and Channel 2 that is at least 14 gauge in size; Connect posi- tive (+) speaker lead to Channel 1 positive output of amp; connect negative (-) speaker lead to Channel 2 negative output of amp. Refer to Section 3.5 for output connector pin assign- ments. Make sure the Mode switch is set to the “Parallel” position when operating in Parallel- Mono mode.

NOTE: Turn down (full CCW) the Channel 2 level control when operating in Parallel-Mono mode, as the lower- numbered level control works both channels.

NOTE: Remove the jumper wire before changing to any mode except Parallel- Mono.

NOTE: Crown provides a reference of wiring pin assignments for commonly used connector types in the Crown Amplifier Application Guide available at www.crownaudio.com.
