How to Connect the MC352

1. Connect the MC352 power cord to a live AC outlet.

2. Connect a power control cable from the control center

Power Control Out to the MC352 Power Control In.

3. Prepare the loudspeaker hookup cables as follows:

A. Carefully remove sufficient insulation from the

loudspeaker cable ends to just fit within the bind-

ing post with no exposed

wire accessible. Refer to

figure 1.

B. If the cable is stranded,

carefully twist the strands

together as tightly as pos-

sible. Refer to figures 2

& 3.

Note: If desired, the

twisted cable section

can be tinned with a

solder iron to keep

the strands together

and/or attach

appropriate

connector ends.

C. Insert the bare section of the cable end or connec-

tor into the access hole, and tighten the terminal

nut clockwise until the cable is firmly clamped

into the terminal so the wires cannot slip out. Re-

fer to figure 4.

D. Insert the bare section of the cable end or connec-

tor into the access hole, and tighten the terminal

nut clockwise until the cable is firmly clamped

into the terminal. Refer to figures 5 & 6.

Note: The bare sections of the cable ends or the non

insulated part of the connectors must not be exposed on

either side of the terminal access hole.

used with the amplifier.

4. Connect the loudspeaker cables to the appropriate termi-

nals for your loudspeakers, being careful to observe the

correct polarities. Output impedance connections of 2

ohms, 4 ohms and 8 ohms are provided.

If the impedance of your loudspeakers

is rated at other than the listed imped-

ance connections, use the nearest lower

connection.

5. Install the plastic protective loudspeaker

terminal covers that were supplied with

your amplifier. Refer to figure 7.

6. Connect a cable from the balanced outputs of a control

center to the MC352 balanced Input connectors for both

audio channels and power control.

Note: An optional hookup is to use unbalanced cables from a

McIntosh Control Center to Unbalanced Inputs of the

MC352.
