WARNING! There is a potential of having dangerous voltage at the
output terminals on the rear of the amplifier. Use caution not to touch
these contacts. Make sure the Power switch is off prior to making
any connections.
NOTEE: The output connector is capable of handling up to 8 AWG for
stranded wire.
1. Connect the loudspeaker wiring to the 8-pin Euro-style connector as needed for your
