1. Heat Ventilation
This unit comes with variable speed fan that auto-adjusts
fan speed depending on the temperature of the machine
during operation. Be sure not to obstruct the heat vents in
any way. This will ensure the amplifier is always properly
ventilated.

CONNECTIONS

2. XLR Input Connectors
Connect your source to the XLR jacks, which are com-
monly used for both mobile and installation set-ups. They
provide a good combination of ease of connection and
resistance to corrosion. These inputs should be wired as
shown in figure 2.
3. Output Connectors

connector. More people prefer using speakon than other
connectors because it's the least likely to be disconnected
by accident or cause electrical shock. Because speakon
comes with four wires inside, you can connect to two speak-
ers with only one channel output. Be careful when making
connections since improper connecting could cause the
unit to short circuit. The minimum impedance setting for
STEREO and PARALLEL operation is 4 ohm, while 8 ohm
is the minimum for BRIDGE MONO operation. See figure
3 for wiring information.
