NOTE:

Do not allow any of the cord conductors to protrude from the terminals or touch any other conductors. Malfunctioning or breakdowns may occur when conductors come into contact with each other.

Speaker Impedance

When speaker systems are connected to only SPEAKERS A or SPEAKERS B terminals, such speakers should have rated impedance in the range of 4–16 Ω.

When speaker are connected to both A and B terminals, they should have a rated impedance in the range of 8 –32 Ω.
