Playing Two or More Speaker Pairs Simultaneously

1.Make sure the amplifier or receiver power is OFF, and set the volume to minimum.

2.On the right side of the HDL-6's front panel is a button labeled PROTECTION. This button activates the HDL-6's impedance-correction circuitry, which assures that your receiv- er or amplifier will see a safe operating load when playing mul- tiple speaker pairs simultaneously. Since most receivers and amplifiers are not rated for use below a 4-ohm load, you must activate the PROTECTION button whenever the overall system impedance might fall below 4 ohms. Use the following chart as a guide for setting the PROTECTION button.
