Connecting Input Sources
You can connect optional components, such as microphones, tuner, turntable,
audio mixer, preamplifier, or CD player to your amplifier to expand your system.
To prevent hum and other noise, use low-capacitance shielded cable (not
supplied, available at your local RadioShack store or at www.radioshack.com).
Notes:
· This amplifier is equipped with both stereo phono input and ¼-inch
(6.35 mm) jacks. The ¼-inch input jacks on the top are stereo while the
others are left and right mono.
· Before you make any connections, be sure the amplifier is turned off
and AC power cord is not plugged in.

Connecting Microphones
You can connect up to four high- or low-impedance microphones (not supplied)
to the microphone inputs on the back of the amplifier. Each input (MIC1, MIC2,
MIC3, and MIC4) has a balanced and unbalanced jack. You need a microphone
with a ¼-inch (6.35 mm) plug to connect to an unbalanced jack or a microphone
cord with a 3-pin XLR plug to connect to a balanced jack.

12
Connecting Your Amplifier
Connecting an Equalizer
Connect an equalizer or other external signal processor to the EQ IN and
EQ OUT jacks on the back of the amplifier.




EQ IN/OUT Jacks




Notes:
· You can also connect a tape deck to the EQ OUT jack for recording.
· The EQ IN/OUT jacks handle the signal from an outside equalizer. They
do not handle the signal from an outside equalizer's stereo INPUT jacks.

Connecting Speakers
You can connect one or more 4-, 8-, or 16-Ohm speakers to the amplifier. To
ensure equal volume from each speaker, all connected speakers should have the
same impedance rating.
Proper phasing is important when you use more than one speaker in the same
room or area. Out-of-phase speakers can lose up to one-half of their potential
volume, and can have a significantly decreased bass effect.
Most speaker terminals are color-coded or have a mark that indicates the
terminal's polarity. Usually, terminals with positive polarity are red or have a
plus symbol (+), and terminals with negative polarity are black or have a minus
symbol (­). Phasing is correct when you connect + to + and ­ to ­.
You can also bridge the amplifier's channels. The amplifier has two channels:
A and B. If you connect two pairs of speakers, follow these guidelines:
· Speakers connected to the same channel (A or B) are part of a pair and
must be of the same impedance.
· Speakers connected to different channels (A or B) are not part of a pair
and can be of different impedance.

13
Connecting Your Amplifier
Determining Total Speaker Impedance
Before you connect speakers to the amplifier, you must determine the total
speaker impedance. To determine total speaker impedance, you must first
decide if you are going to connect the speakers in series, parallel, or a series/
parallel combination.
If you are connecting more than two speakers in series only or parallel only, be
sure the total impedance does not exceed the amplifier's maximum impedance
(16 ohms) or fall below the minimum impedance (4 ohms). You can achieve a
proper total impedance by combining series and parallel connections.
Note: A total speaker impedance higher than 16 ohms or lower than
4 ohms can damage your amplifier or speakers. When determining the
total speaker impedance, first determine whether you are connecting
the speakers in series, parallel, or a series/parallel combination.
Preparing the Speaker Wires
Use the shortest length of wire possible to connect the speakers. After placing
the speakers, use this table to determine the wire length and choose the
appropriate gauge.

Wire Length Wire Gauge
7.6 m 18 gauge
(25 ft) or less
Over 7.6 m 16 gauge
(25 ft)

To prepare the speaker wire, remove about ½ inch (12.5 mm) of insulation from
the end you are connecting to the amplifier. Twist the exposed wire to secure all
of the wire strands.




14
Connecting Your Amplifier
Connecting Two Speakers in Series
Speakers are connected in series when the first speaker's positive terminal is
connected to the next speaker's negative terminal.
Note: Determine the total speaker impedance of speakers you want
to connect in series by adding up the individual impedances of all
connected speakers.
For example: If connecting two 4-ohm speakers in series, your total
speaker impedance is 8 ohms.




Connecting Two Speakers in Parallel
Speakers are connected in parallel when the speakers' negative terminals are
connected together and all their positive terminals are connected together.
Note: Determine the total speaker impedance of speakers you want
to connect in parallel by dividing the impedance of one speaker by the
number of speakers.
For example: If connecting two 8-ohm speakers in parallel, divide 8
(one speaker's impedance) by 2 (number of speakers). Your total speaker
impedance is 4.




15
Connecting Your Amplifier
Unbridged Connection
Use this connection if you are connecting more than one speaker on the same
channel or if you do not have high power speakers.
1. Connect the speaker wires to the corresponding left and right positive (+)
and negative (­) speaker terminals.
2. Connect the other end of the left and right speaker's positive (+) and
negative (­) wires to the amplifier's corresponding SPEAKER LEFT and
SPEAKER RIGHT terminals for each channel. To connect speaker wires to
the amplifier, turn the knob on the terminal counterclockwise until it stops,
insert the bare wire inside the space between the knob and the amplifier,
and turn the knob clockwise until it stops, securing the wire.
3. Make sure the STEREO/MONO switch is set to STEREO.




RIGHT Speaker LEFT Speaker



Bridged Connection
Use this connection if you have high power speakers that can handle a power
output of 350 Watts.
Note: For a bridged connection, do not connect any speaker wire to the
black SPEAKER terminals.
1. Connect the speaker wires to the speaker's positive (+) and negative (­)
terminals.



16
Connecting Your Amplifier
2. Connect the other end of the speaker's positive (+) and negative (­) wires to
the amplifier's red SPEAKER LEFT and SPEAKER RIGHT terminals.
Note: SPEAKER RIGHT (+) on the amplifier is used as a negative (­)
terminal for a bridged connection.
3. Make sure STEREO/MONO is set to MONO.
Note: In the bridged mono mode, only the LEFT volume control adjusts
the output level.




RIGHT Speaker LEFT Speaker



Connecting Power
To power the amplifier, plug the attached power cord into a standard AC
outlet. Your amplifier's fuse protects it from voltage surges. If the amplifier
does not turn on when you press POWER, check the fuse. If it is blown, see
"Replacing the Fuse."




17
Operating Your Amplifier
Beginning Steps
1. Start the input sound source.
2. Make sure the LEFT and RIGHT volume controls on the front of the amplifier
are set to MIN.
3. Press POWER to turn on the amplifier. The blue light around the power
switch and LEFT and RIGHT volume controls will light.
4. Rotate LEFT and RIGHT volume controls to their middle positions.
5. One at a time, adjust MIC1, MIC2, MIC3, MIC4/PHONO, and CD/AUX to
the desired volume and balance.
If you hear feedback after you adjust these controls, turn FEEDBACK FILTER
clockwise until the noise disappears (see "Using the Feedback Filter").
6. Adjust LEFT and RIGHT volume controls to the desired volume level after
you find your desired balance.

Monitoring Sound Sources
To monitor sound sources, plug a pair of mono or stereo headphones (not
supplied) with a ¼-inch (6.35mm) plug into the PHONES jack on the front of the
amplifier. Headphones sometimes make it easier to check and adjust the sound
source's balance.

Listening Safely
To protect your hearing, follow these guidelines when you use headphones.
· Set the volume to the lowest setting before you begin listening. After you
begin listening, adjust the volume to a comfortable level.
· Do not listen at extremely high volume levels. Extended high-volume
listening can lead to permanent hearing loss.
· Once you set the volume, do not increase it. Over time, your ears adapt to
the volume level, so a volume level that does not cause discomfort might
still damage your hearing.




18
Operating Your Amplifier
Using the Feedback Filter
The FEEDBACK FILTER control lets you reduce or eliminate squeal and other
noise caused by feedback. After you adjust LEFT and RIGHT volume, MIC1,
MIC2, MIC3, MIC4/PHONO, and CD/AUX , turn on the amplifier and any
connected sound sources. If you hear any feedback, turn FEEDBACK FILTER
clockwise until you reduce or eliminate the feedback.
Note: The FEEDBACK FILTER control decreases feedback frequencies
by up to 12dB. If it does not eliminate the feedback, try using a
frequency equalizer to further decrease the feedback frequencies.

Using the Level Meters and Clipping Indicator
The output indicators reflect the amplifier's output level. The stronger the signal
the more indicators light. The maximum signal through the amplifier should
cause the CLIPPING indicator to blink at peak music levels.
