[ 16 ] OUTPUT Connector
Can be used to connect to the input of another power amplifier. This allows to hook
up several power amplifiers in parallel (so-called "Daisy-chain" array) to a single
source (e.g. for Bi- or Tri-amping).
Note: In multi-amplification the individual drivers of a loudspeaker system need to
have separate inputs.
E.g. Bi-amping in stereo requires four monoblocs, i.e. one for the bass and one for
the mid/high frequency modules for each channel.
PIN1 = Ground
PIN2 = Signal +
PIN3 = Signal -

. This terminal must never be connected to the amplifier chassis or
electrical ground.
CAUTION! The load impedance must not be inferior to 2 Ohms!
[ 18 ] SPEAKON OUTPUT
This socket may be used to connect the speaker with a SPEAKON plug. This
alternative hook up with an appropriately terminated cable has the advantage of
offering a secure and relatively quick means of connecting a loudspeaker to the
amplifier. Accidental shorts are fairly unlikely to occur with this type of locking
connection. The SPEAKON connector has 4 poles (contacts). PIN1+ and PIN2+ are
connected to the red (+) speaker terminal, PIN1- and PIN2- are connected with the
black (-) speaker terminal.
CAUTION! The load impedance must not be inferior to 2 Ohms!
