7.2Connecting speakers
Speaker connections are made via the two Neutrik® NL4FC Speakon connectors. The Speakon connector is designed for high power speaker connections. It assures the correct polarity, it locks in place and prevents from shock hazard.
They are wired in the following manner:
The right jack, Channel A, has both channel A and B outputs, so it’s useful for bridging and
Channel A and B into two separate Speakons.

Never connect either output terminal to ground or to some other output or input terminal (see warnings in chapter 1)
For normal
Keep the speaker cable wires as short as possible and use a good quality stranded speaker cable. Do not use shielded wire, such as microphone or guitar cable. Remember that the speaker cable robs the power of the amplifiers in two ways:
Increases the load impedance and introduces resistive power losses.
WARNING: To prevent from electric shock, do not operate the amplifier with any of the conductor portion of the speaker wire exposed.
8 OPERATION
8.1Operation precautions
•Make sure that the power switch is set to “off” before connecting any input or output or operating the switches on rear panel. See pages 8 about installation.
•Make sure that the AC mains voltage is correct and the same as the one printed on the rear panel of the amplifier. See pages 9, about operating voltage and power consumption.
•Make sure that the switches on the rear panel for operation modes,
•It is always a good idea to turn down the gain controls during
