Dynatech V-5000 - Speaker Wiring and Connector Types; Bridge and Stereo Connection Modes

Spade Connector: (Diagram 8)
When connecting your speakers to the amplifier using spade connector; Unscrew the red and black caps on
the binding post, be sure not to completely remove or unscrew the red and black caps. Insert the spade con-
nector in to the binding post and tighten the caps down on the spade connector. To reduce the risk of shock
or damage to your amplifier, be sure that the wire connected to one binding post does not come in contact
with that of another.
When connecting your speakers to the amplifier using banana jacks; Be sure that the red and black caps on
the binding post are tighten down completely. Insert the banana jacks into the caps of the binding post, be
sure that the banana jack is inserted securely to avoid the risk of it popping out.
Mono Bridge Connections:
Mono bridge operation connections will follow the above descriptions however, when operating in mono
bridge operation the speaker connections will run between the two positive (red) leads. Use channel two pos-
itive output terminal for the negative connection and the channel one positive output terminal for the positive
connection.
Typical speaker output using
spade connectors. Insert
bare wire into the binding
post and tighten.

Stereo Connections Using the Neutrik Speakon output connectors:
Recent regulatory
requirements
in Europe have outlawed the use of
the dual banana plug and force amp users to terminate
their speaker
cables
with spade
lugs or bare wire ends. This
is not advantageous to
most users that want to reconfigur
e their systems or quickly
change
out an amp. The Neutrik
Speakon
®
connector provides the most convenient
solution
to this problem,
eliminating the need
for
spade
plugs or bare wire end cables. Major speaker manufacturers have been using Speakon
connectors
on
their products for years,
so chances
are you are ready
to use the
Speakon
connection. With Speakon
connectors,
you can connect straight from the amplifier
to the speaker
. The
Speakon
connector used
on this amplifer
meets
all known
safety
regulations. Once wired
correctly, the
connector
cannot
be plugged in backwards, causing the type of inverted
polarity
situations
that have
become
common with banana hookups.
This
connection will pr
ovide a safe,
secure and reliable
method
of connecting
your speakers to your
new amplifier. You can purchase
the
Speakon
® NL4FC connectors fr
om your local audio dealer
.
Bar
e Wire Connections: (Diagram 7)
When
connecting
your speakers
to the amplifier using bare
wire; Unscrew
the red and
black caps on the binding
post, be sure not
to completely remove or unscrew the red
and black caps. Strip back the wire insulation 1/2”
(13mm).
Insert
the bare wire into the
hole that was reveled
by unscr
ewing
the binding post cap.
After inserting
the wire into
the binding post hole, scr
ew the binding
post cap down on the
wire. To reduce
the risk of
shock
or damage
to
your amplifier, be sure that
the wire connected
to one binding
post
does not come in contact with that of another.
Typical speaker output using bar
e wire. Insert
bare wire into the binding post and tighten.
