31. 1W/8Ω monitor output terminal Use this terminal to connect the + terminal of an 8Ω monitor speaker. In case of using several speakers, make sure that the total speaker load is the same as the impedance of the corresponding terminal. The total power rating of the low impedance speakers connected to this terminal summed, should be at least 1W.
Operation Installation Remove all packing materials from the ZA-150. Check that all foam and plastic padding is removed. Secure the equipment into a 19" rack. Connect all cables. Set Up and Operation Before plugging the unit in, always make sure that the power supply matches the product specification voltage.
Example 3: using the 8Ω output with two 4Ω speakers. Fig. 7 In a low impedance system, the total speakerload should always match the amplifier impedance. This to avoid overloading the amplifier. The total speaker power should be at least the power of the amplifier to avoid damage to the speakers.
