How to Connect using a single Amplifier
Caution: The AC Power Cord should not be connected to the
Power Amplifier until after the Loudspeaker Con-
nections have been made. Failure to observe this
could result in Electric Shock.
1. Prepare Loudspeaker cables by choosing one of the
methods below:
Bare wire cable ends:
Carefully remove sufficient insulation from the
cable ends, refer to figures 20, 21 & 22. If the cable
is stranded, carefully twist the strands together as
tightly as possible.
Note: If desired, the twisted ends can be tinned with
solder to keep the strands together or attach
spade lugs.
Spade lug or prepared wire connection:
Insert the spade lug connector or prepared section
of the cable end into the terminal side access hole,
and tighten the terminal cap until the cable is firmly
clamped into the terminal so the wires cannot slip
out. Refer to figures 23, 24 & 25.
