XM4180/XM4080/XH200 Owner’s Manual 11
You may also connect speakers with different rated inputs
to different channels or connect speakers with different
rated input to the same channel, as shown below:
Be sure to use speakers that support the
XH200’s line-out voltage of 70V or 100V.
You cannot connect a low-impedance speaker
directly to the XH200. In this case, be sure to use
a speaker transformer (such as the Yamaha
ST15). Follow the instruction guide that came
with the speaker transformer to avoid excessive
loads.
Connection
■Using a Euroblock connector
1If the wire insertion ports are closed, turn the screws on
top of the connector counterclockwise to open the ports.
2Insert the wires into the appropriate ports, following the
indication of the pole on the input terminal, turn the
screws on top of the connector clockwise to fix the
wires.
3Attach the Euroblock connector to the input terminal on
the unit.

● Cable preparation
•To prepare the cable for attachment to a Euroblock con-
nector, strip the wire as shown in the illustration, and use
stranded wire to make connections. With a Euroblock
connection, the stranded wire may be prone to breakage
because of metal fatigue due to the weight of the cable or
due to vibration. When rack-mounting your equipment,
use a lacing bar when possible to bundle and fasten the
cables.
• If cables will be frequently connected and disconnected,
as in the case of a portable installation, we recommend
that you use ferrules with insulation sleeves. Use a ferrule
whose conductor portion has an external diameter of 1.6
mm or less, and a length of approximately 7 mm (such as
the AI0, 5-6WH made by the Phoenix Contact corpora-
tion).
If you use stranded wire, do not tin (plate
with solder) the exposed end.
