OUTPUT POWER CONNECTION. MODES OF OPERATION
Each channel includes a pair of five-way binding post. The red binding post is positive and the
black is ground. Keep in mind the polarity upon connecting the speakers since changing the
speaker polarity of a system reduces the total output power by the effect of the phase cancellations
mechanisms.
In the output connection it is necessary to keep in mind a series of important precautions in
order to avoid an accidental short circuit or a possible damage in the equipment:
Consider the power-handling capacity of your speakers before connecting it to the power
amplifier. Equipos Europeos Electrónicos is not liable for damage occurred by the connection of
speakers to the power amplifier with a nominal power lower that the power amplifier.
Turn off the power amplifier and turn down the input attenuators, whenever takes place
an output power connection. The output power connectors could have high voltage, with
the rising danger of short circuit.
