Speaker impedances
Correct loadings for all models are shown here. Multiple speakers are connected in parallel.
A700v
WARNING: Do not use a system with a total impedance less than 8Ω.
The A700v can be used to drive a 70 volt distribution system (maximum loading 600W) or a
100 volt line system at a reduced output. Note: Do not connect a transformer between the
A700v output and distribution system. Where line transformers are used to match speakers to
the distribution system, adjust to suit the characteristics of the speaker.
A500 • A750 • A1000 • A1004 • A1500 • Q6 • Q1004 • QB1000/600 (per channel)
WARNING: Do not use a system with a total impedance per channel less than 4Ω.
4 or less OR 2 or less OR 1 speaker
speakers of 16Ω speakers of 8Ω of 4Ω
A2000 • A3000 • A4000 • A5000 • A5003 • A6000 • Q900 (per channel)
WARNING: Do not use a system with a total impedance per channel less than 2Ω.
8 or less OR 4 or less OR 2 or less OR 1 speaker
speakers of 16Ω speakers of 8Ω speakers of 4Ω of 2Ω
Note: The A5000 and A6000 models both incorporate an adjustable output limiting control,
concealed behind the front panel. Consult an authorised Chevin dealer to enable this feature.
