Speaker Connections - Russound MCA-66 Installation Manual

Speaker Output Connections
The MCA-66 supports speaker outputs for all zones. These 20 watt per
channel stereo speaker level outputs have high-current two-channel analog
amplifiers. Each speaker connection requires an 8-ohm load.
The speakers are connected to the MCA-66 using the supplied modular snap
speaker connectors. Each of these color coded connectors is designated for
the speaker set of a particular amplified zone. To avoid confusion, connect one
zone speaker set at a time starting with Zone 1, taking care to keep zone and
speaker wire identities straight.
Strip 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm) off the end of each speaker cable jacket. Then
strip 1/4 inch (0.7 cm) of insulation off each wire. Twist the speaker wire strands
together so there are no strands separated from the bundle.
Lift the locking lever for each connection until it locks open and insert the
proper speaker wire, matching channel and polarity for all four wires. Snap
the lever down. Check to make sure there are no stray strands of wire outside
the terminals. If there are, remove the wire, twist the strands together, and
reconnect the wire to the terminal. Insert the modular connector into its
designated output on the back of the MCA-66.
