DEVICE DESCRIPTIONS

5.MONITOR OUTPUT socket

The audio signal of the integrated monitor amplifier is outputted via this connector. In standard configuration, this output is set for the connection of headphones. It is also possible to directly connect a loudspeaker with minimum load impedance of 8 Ohms. To achieve higher output capacity it is possible to set the internal monitor amplifier to bridged operation. Thus some internal jumpers have to be re-set as shown in the figure below.
