1. AC Power Receptacle – Connect to your AC power line from the wall using the supplied power cord.
Monster recommends connecting all electronic components to a Monster PowerCenter for clean,
noise free AC power and protection for system components.
2. Voltage Selection Switch – Selects the power voltage for use on a variety of AC lines.
Make sure that this switch is set to the proper voltage for your location. In the US, standard
AC power is 110V. Be sure to use the proper AC power cord for your country.
3. Main Power Fuse – 12A Slow-Blow fuse protects the amplifier from power overload.
Replace only with same type fuse.
4. Remote On/Off – Allows amplifier to be automatically turned On or Off when receiver or preamp
is turned On or Off. One trigger cable and one power transformer are included with each amplifier.
5. Input Type Switch – Selects between the unbalanced and balanced input for each channel.
Verify that the switch is at the proper setting for the type of input used.
6. Amplifier Input – Monster has provided both Unbalanced (RCA) and Balanced (XLR) inputs
to match a variety of products.
7. Grounding Connection – Connection to ground for other units in the system. If using Monster
Power units, connect the amplifier ground posts to their ground posts to maintain the lowest
possible noise floor.
8. Speaker Terminals – 5-way, gold-plated binding posts allow for multiple types
of speaker connections.
9. Channel Fuses – 7A 125V Slow-Blow fuse protects the individual amplifier channel from
power overload. Replace only with same type fuse.
