    Ensure the POWER (5) is switched off until all input and speaker connections are in place. The RS605 is designed to accept up to 5 line inputs from a mixer or multiple input sources and provide power for up to 5 independent speaker zones from its 5 internal amplifiers.
  • Page 5: Low Impedance Systems

    Low impedance systems Alternatively, each of the RS605 amplifiers can provide an output for a single 8Ω speaker by connecting the “8Ω” output to the positive (+) speaker connection and “COM” output to the negative (-) speaker connection. It is important to ensure that the speaker load is no less than 8Ω and that the power handling of the speaker is equal to or greater than the output power of the amplifier.
  • Page 6: Operation

    Operation Select the required operating mode from the MODE switch on the rear panel (9). If the preferred usage is for all outputs to have the same signal, the MIX mode may be used, allowing 5 inputs to all 5 amplifiers. Otherwise, the 5CH mode feeds each input independently to its relative amplifier. As a start point, set all the GAIN (11) controls on the rear panel to the 12 o’clock position.
