I. Balanced XLR Inputs

Two 3-pin female XLR input connectors are provided (one per channel).

J. Fans

Provide front-to-back forced airflow for cool- ing.

K. 5-Way Binding Post Output Jacks

One pair per channel; accept banana plugs, spade lugs or bare wire. Note: Binding post outputs on European models come with safety plugs installed to prevent European power-cord plugs from being inserted. The top & bottom entry positions for these connectors should therefore be used with European models.

L. 4-Pole Speakon® Output Connectors

These two connectors accept 2-pole or 4-pole Speakon connectors. See Figures 2.8, 2.9 and

2.12and Tables 1, 2 and 3 for connector wir- ing. The top Speakon connector is wired for both channels so it can be used for bridge- mono wiring or for stereo wiring of two speak- ers to a single Speakon connector.
