8101 OPERATOR'S MANUAL
recommends using professionally
AE T
ECHRON
constructed, high-quality, two- or four-conductor,
heavy gauge wire and connectors. You may use
terminal forks up to 10 AWG or bare wire for your
output connectors (see Figure 2.5). To prevent
the possibility of short-circuits, wrap or otherwise
insulate exposed cable connectors. For best
results, AE T
recommends Panduit part
ECHRON
#PV10-10LF-L or equivalent terminal fork. Screw
spacing is also shown in Figure 2.5.
Using the guidelines below, select the appropriate
size of wire based on the distance from amplifier
to load (low-impedance loads only).
Distance
up to 25 ft. (7.6m)
26-40 ft. (7.9-12.2m)
41-60 ft. (12.5-18.3m)
> 60 ft. (18.3m)
2.6 Wiring Your System
2.6.1 Dual Configuration (2-8 ohm)
Before connecting the amplifier, make sure the AC power cord
is unplugged.
Typical input and output wiring, along with Attenuator and Mode
Switch settings are shown in Figure 2.6. Make sure the Mode
switch is set to the DUAL position when operating in Dual mode.

Never use shielded cable for output wiring.
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD. Output potentials
can be lethal. Make connection only with AC
Power OFF and input signals removed.
