Power Requirements 
The Model 7.250 power amplifier is designed to operate from residential or commercial AC 
current mains. The voltage is 117/234 Volts AC @ 50/60 Hz. 
 
Cables 
The speaker cables from the output posts of the Model 7.250 power amplifier to the speaker 
system can be any length, as your speaker set-up requires. Select speaker cables of sufficient 
size to preserve the outstanding performance capabilities of your Model 7.250 power amplifier. 
Heavy gauge #14 wire is suitable for distances up to 10 feet, #12 for 25 feet. Most audio dealers 
will have proper speaker cable in stock for this purpose. Consult your Authorized Cary Audio 
Design dealer for advice about wire.   
 
Interconnects 
Signal input connections are made via the input jack on the rear of the Model 7.250 power 
amplifier, either single-ended or balanced. The interconnect cables from the output of the 
processor can be any convenient length your installation set-up requires. The choice of a high 
quality interconnect cable is important. Once again, your audio dealer will have the proper cables 
in stock for this purpose. 
 
 
WARNING - Do not touch the speaker output binding posts during normal operation. 
You may be shocked. Do not short-circuit the speaker output binding posts. Damage 
may occur or the fuse may blow. Do not parallel or “bridge” the speaker output 
binding posts as this will damage the amplifier.
