RCA Inputs

The IPS-1 has one RCA input available for
each amplifier channel module. Connect
this to the corresponding RCA jack on your
preamplifier to provide signal to the ampli-
fier channel. See page 15 for a connection
diagram.

Speaker Output Terminals

The speaker output terminals for each amplifier channel are located just below the RCA input
jack and channel ID label area. The top post of each binding post pair is the positive output,
and connects to the positive (red) post of your speaker. The bottom post of each pair is the
negative, and connects to the negative (black) post of your speaker. The posts can accept bare
wire, spade terminals, and dual or single banana connectors.
Spade connections or banana plugs ensure a simple, solid fit in the terminal whereas bare wire
may be awkward when the terminal is screwed down to compress the wire into place. Keep in
mind that if you use "dual banana" plugs and "stack" them, you will be creating a parallel con-
nection. For more details on series and parallel connections, see pages 17-18.

Channel ID Area

The IPS-1 amplifier comes with self adhe-
sive labels to use as channel identification.
Simply apply the label that corresponds to
the appropriate channel to this area and
it will make I/O connections or future
troubleshooting much easier.
