10.Connect the AC power into an outlet than can supply at least four amps (550 watts) dedicated to each MA850.
Caution: Never listen to sound that is distorted. If distorted sound is heard, turn the volume down immediately or speaker and/or amplifier damage could occur that is not covered by the warranty. If this problem persists, contact your dealer.
User adjustments and service: There are no user adjustments on the MA850. Your installer may make certain gain level adjustments on the rear panel.
Caution: The MA850 contains no user serviceable parts, so do not attempt to open or repair the MA850. Refer servicing to a qualified technician only or contact the factory for information.
The trigger is 12 VDC (35mA per MA850) via 3.5mm mono jack. 5 VDC trigger outputs will not work. To connect the trigger to a receiver use a 12 VDC power supply (we suggest Knoll PS1202 power supply with an adaptor). Plug the power supply into the switched outlet on the rear of the receiver. Connect the 12 volt wire to a 3.5mm mono jack. Plug the jack into the rear of the MA850. 12 VDC polarity is not important. Make sure the
amplifier power switch is off (out). When the receiver is switched on, the MR1250 amplifier is switched on.

Caution: NEVER connect the MA850 to impedances
less than 4 ohms or amplifier damage not covered
by the warranty may occur.
The Link button is normally set to the in 
position to give all six stereo inputs individual 
sources. When the Link button is set to the 
out position, that input Left/Right is linked or cascaded to input #1 (without the use of Y cords). Any or
all combination of linked inputs 2 to inputs 6 are possible. When all inputs are linked to input 1 the input impedance is about 4000 ohms.
