In this configuration, the Quiana/Fandango is driving two speaker cabinets with identical
impedance's. Using heavy-gauge speaker cords, connect the output jacks labeled
Speaker 1 and Speaker 2 to the speaker inputs on extension cabinets with a minimum
8-ohm impedance and power-handling capacity of 60 watts (for 50W Quiana/Fandango
55). You can also hook up two 16-ohm cabinets, but avoid if possible the use of two 4-
ohm cabinets, because the overall impedance load will be below what is optimum for
the amplifier and sustained use could result in overheating damage. When using two 8-
ohm cabinets, set the Quiana/Fandango's Impedance Selector to 4 ohms. When using
two 16-ohm cabinets, set it to 8 ohms.
