Line Outputs
If you’ll be using additional outboard power ampliers to drive your system’s speakers, connect their inputs to
the MS-8’s line-output connectors. You can power some of the system’s speakers by the MS-8’s ampliers
and some by outboard ampliers, but you should use only one connection type per output. For example,
Output Channel 1 may use the MS-8’s amplier OR an outboard amplier, but not both. Be sure to use the
chart above to note which speakers you have connected to which of the MS-8’s channels.
