Note
• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other words,
connect positive (+) terminals only to positive (+) terminals, and
negative (–) terminals only to negative (–) terminals. If you get
them the wrong way around, the sound will be out of phase and
will feel unnatural.
• Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so
may damage the power amplifier.
• Make sure the metal core of the wire does not have contact with
the power amplifier's rear panel. Doing so may damage the
power amplifier.
• Don't connect more than one speaker wire to a single speaker
terminal. Doing so could damage the power amplifier or cause it
to malfunction.
Tip
• To reduce noise, do not tie signal cables together with the power
cable. Wire them so that they are away from each other.
• Depending on the country, the power amplifier may be polarity-
sensitive. In this case, plug the power cord in a way that provides
the best sound quality.
Note
• Never disconnect the power cord from the power amplifier
while the other end is still plugged into a wall outlet. Doing so
may cause an electric shock. Always disconnect the power cord
from the wall outlet first, and then the power amplifier.
• Turning on the power amplifier may cause a momentary power
surge that might interfere with other electrical equipment on the
same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the power amplifier into a
different branch circuit.
• Do not use a power cord other than the one supplied with the
power amplifier. The supplied power cord is designed
exclusively for use with the power amplifier and should not be
used with any other equipment.
