1 Unpack the A35.2
Your A35.2 is supplied with:
Mains cable
l

l
Shorting link
l
If any of these items are missing please contact your
supplier. We recommend you retain the packaging in
case you need to transport the unit at a later date.
2 Connect speakers
The A35.2 is designed to be connected directly to a pair
of loudspeakers of 8Ω impedance.
Connect the left and right loudspeakers to the
l
corresponding terminals on the back panel.
The terminals can accept speaker cables terminated with
bare wires, spade terminals, or banana plugs.
For the best sound quality connect the red wire from each
speaker to the red terminal marked + and the black wire
from each speaker to the black terminal marked –.
To connect bare wires unscrew the terminal, pass the bare
wire through the hole in the terminal bolt, and clamp the
wire in place by screwing the terminal back down hand
tight.
Advice on positioning your speakers
For best results your speakers should be positioned about
2-3m apart, at least 20cm from the rear wall and at least
50cm from any side wall. The tweeter or high frequency
unit in the speaker should be at head height when you are
seated, listening to the speaker.
