  • Page 6: Operating Procedures

    Never run the amplifier without speakers connected since that may damage the transformers. Speaker’s minus terminal should be connected to the speaker terminal marked as zero (0) and positive termi- nal should be connected to the terminal that corresponds to the speaker’s nominal impedance (4 or 8 ohms). The amplifier is optimized for these impedances. Higher or lower impedance will result in higher distortion or loss of power. Do not use a speaker with impedance lower than 2 ohms on either of the outputs. Make sure to prevent short circuit at the amplifier’s speaker terminals as that will damage the amplifier. Figure 3: Premise amplifier speakers connection NOTE: 4 ohms and 8 ohms speakers cannot be connected to the speaker terminals at the same time! Make sure your amplifier is properly connected to a high-current power receptacle. 3. WARNING. Always take care volume control is in the proper position. The amplifier will be fully functional after only a couple of minutes. However, as it warms up over the first 30 minutes of operation you may notice slight improvement in the sound quality.
