Connecting the outputs
Important information regarding connection
Speaker outputs (10), (11), (12), (13)
Dangerous voltage on the connection terminals
The connection terminals on the integrated amplifier may carry dangerous voltages
during operation .
►
Do not touch the connection terminals when the device is in operation .
A connection can be made using either cable lugs or 4-mm banana plugs . For acoustic
reasons, Burmester recommends equipping the ends of the speaker cables with cable
lugs . Connecting cables to these terminals requires the use of ready-to-fit wires or must
be performed by a qualified professional .
Short circuit of the speaker outputs
Connecting the positive and negative poles of the speaker terminals when the
integrated amplifier is on causes a short circuit . To protect the device from damage, in
this case the speaker outputs are switched off automatically and the device enters
standby mode . The LED (operation/standby) flashes in red .
Resetting the protective function after a short circuit:
1 .
Reduce the volume at the signal source .
2 .
Check the integrated amplifier output connections to the speakers .
3 .
Switch the integrated amplifier back on using the power on/off switch (8) or the
remote control .
If the error persists, please contact your specialist dealer .
Even though the circuit breaker prevents damage to the integrated amplifier, you
should observe the following to avoid a short circuit:
►
Switch the integrated amplifier off before connecting the speaker cables .
►
Start by connecting the speaker cables to the speakers, then to the integrated
amplifier .
►
Never connect the positive and negative poles of the speaker terminals when the
device is on .
Correct polarity
►
When connecting the speakers, pay attention to the correct polarity of the
connections . It is important to establish all connections in phase:
— Integrated amplifier positive output (POS) = speaker positive output
— Integrated amplifier negative output (NEG) = speaker negative output
Connecting the channels out of phase causes poor bass and diffuse playback . When in
doubt, please ask your specialist dealer .
