.
(5) Cooling Fan Outlet
.
Hot air exits here. Make sure all rear (and front) ventilation paths are free
from obstruction and air flows freely, otherwise the amplifier will trip into thermal
protect mode prematurely and in some extreme circumstances damage may
occur.
(6) Output Connectors
.
The Output sockets are Neutrik Speakons and accept a Neutrik NL4FC plug. Avoid inferior
alternatives, as they may present numerous hazards due to less than ideal construction.
Insert the plug and turn clockwise until you hear it click. This ensures correct connection has
been made. To remove, pull back the levered tab and turn anti-clockwise.
Ready-made, sensibly priced, quality interconnection leads suitable for use with the amplifier
should be easy to source. However, with sufficient skill, it is possible to make/modify leads for
the task. proceed to Chapter 5. - “Cables, Making your own”.
NOTE: Only the first two pins (+1 and -1) are connected to the indicated channel.
In addition please ensure that cables purchased or assembled for the purposes of
connecting the amplifiers outputs are suitable for this task. If unsure, please
consult a qualified technician. Failure to use appropriate wiring could damage the amplifier,
associated equipment or present a fire/electrocution risk under certain circumstances.
CAUTION: Whilst we recommend that Neutrik speakon connections are always used for the
safest way of connecting to the amplifier, the option is also provided to use 1/4” jack
connections with these outputs. Take extra care when connecting leads to ensure that these are
not accidentally connected to the inputs and outputs of other equipment not designed
specifically to do so, otherwise damage to equipment is likely to occur.
Take extra care with 1/4” jack speaker connections, the exposed plug end can
present an electric shock hazard, also never allow the outputs to be shorted,
equipment damage may occur. Finally, note that standard 1/4” interconnect leads
are not suitable for connection between amplifier and loudspeaker, choose one
designed for this specific task for safe operation and optimal performance.
