Speaker cable selection

WARNING
The output jacks of the power amplifier carry high voltage. When connecting this unit to speakers, you must use cables that
at a minimum satisfy the requirements of NEC (National Electrical Code) UL13 CL3 (300V or less).
To minimize power loss or damping factor loss in speaker
cables, refer to the following table and use speaker cable of
the appropriate gauge.
NOTE
The Euroblock connectors of PC-DI series should be used with
AWG24 (0.2sq)–AWG8 (8sq) cables.

Connections

Audio input connections
For the PC-D series
Connect the rear panel XLR
jacks to the balanced outputs of
the mixer, and input analog sig-
nals. The jack polarity is shown
in the illustration to the right (IEC
60268).
For the PC-DI series
• When attaching a cable to a Euroblock plug, strip the wire
as shown in the illustration, and use stranded wire to make
connections. In the case of Euroblock wiring, stranded wire
may break more easily due to metal fatigue caused by the
weight or vibration of the cable. Use the included cable ties
to secure the cables to the tab.

CAUTION
When using stranded wire, do not tin the strands
with solder.
• If connections will be frequently plugged and unplugged,
as in a portable setup, we recommend that you use rod ter-
minals equipped with insulating sleeves. Use rod terminals
whose conductor section is as shown below.

Dante as the protocol for conveying digital audio signals.
If connecting to a Dante device, use Dante Controller to
make settings. Dante Controller is application software for
setting-up a Dante network and for routing the audio.
