Always remove power from the unit and turn the level
controls off when making connections. This reduces the
chance of loudspeaker damage from loud blasts.

Follow the guidelines listed next as well as the steps
required for the specific mode of operation:

1. Install the amplifier in a standard 19 inch (48.3 cm) rack

or place it on a stable surface. The mounting dimensions
are 19 inches (48.3 cm) wide, 3.5 inches (8.9 cm) tall
and 16 inches (40.6 cm) deep behind the mounting sur-
face. 

able with the 

MT-XLR accessory. See Section 5.)

4. An appropriate AC cord and plug are provided. Use an

isolated wall outlet with the correct voltage and ad-
equate current. Voltages more than 10% over the
amplifier’s rated voltage may damage the ±15 volt regu-

lator, filter capacitors and output transistors.

1. Turn the level controls down (fully counterclockwise) and

turn off the amplifier.

2. Set the back panel stereo/mono switch to Stereo.

3. If present, remove the Parallel-Mono jumper.

4. Connect the input and output cables as shown in the first

example in Figure 2.3.

5. Turn on the amplifier and adjust the level for each chan-

nel with the back panel level controls.

The monaural operating modes provide twice the
power to one channel as the Stereo mode. In Bridge-
Mono mode, the outputs are wired in series for twice
the output voltage. In Parallel-Mono mode, the outputs
are paralleled for twice the current capacity.

Bridge-Mono mode is provided for loads with an im-
pedance greater than 4 ohms. Parallel-Mono mode
should be used with loads of 4 ohms or less.

B R I D G E - M O N O

1. Turn the level controls down (fully counterclockwise) and

turn off the amplifier.

2. Set the back panel stereo/mono switch to Bridge-Mono.

3. If present, remove the Parallel-Mono jumper.

4. Connect the input and output cables as shown in the

second example in Figure 2.3. 

5. Make sure the load is balanced (neither side shorted to

ground) and do not use the black (–) banana jacks.

6. Turn on the amplifier and adjust the level. 

P A R A L L E L - M O N O

1. Turn down the level controls (fully counterclockwise) and

turn off the amplifier.

2. Set the back panel stereo/mono switch to Parallel-Mono.

3. Install a solid jumper (at least 14 gauge) across the out-

put between the two red (+) banana jacks.

4. Connect the input and output cables as shown in the

third example in Figure 2.3. 

5. Turn on the amplifier and adjust the level.

2. Use high-quality loudspeaker cables to connect the load

to the amplifier’s output jacks. Do not use shielded
cable. Banana plugs are recommended for this connec-
tion.

3. Use shielded cables to connect audio sources to the

amplifier inputs. Either balanced or unbalanced wiring
can be used as shown below. (XLR connectors are avail-
