8. In

MONO and BRIDGE modes, connect an

input cable to

CHANNEL 1’s INPUT only,

and nothing into

CHANNEL 2’s INPUT.

(You could plug into

CHANNEL 2’s input,

it just won’t do anything.)

9. In

STEREO and MONO modes, connect

speaker cables to the

SPEAKER OUTPUTS

, either binding posts, 1/4” jacks, or

Speakon

, depending on your model:

• The binding post connectors are wired
red = hot (+) and black = cold (–).

• The 1/4" jacks are wired tip = hot (+)
and ring = cold (–).

• The Speakon connectors are wired
pin 1+ = hot (+) and pin 1– = cold (–).

10. In

BRIDGE mode, connect the binding post

cable like this: the hot (+) side goes in the
CHANNEL 1 SPEAKER OUTPUTS

red

post and the cold (–) side goes in

CHAN-

NEL 2’s red post. Plug nothing into the
black posts, Speakon jacks (on the
M•1400), or the 1/4" TS jacks (on the
M•1400i).

11. Connect the other ends of the speaker

cables to your loudspeakers.

12. Plug the amp’s power cord

into an

outlet properly configured with the correct
voltage for your amplifier, and capable of
delivering enough current to reach full
power.

13. Make sure your signal source (feeding the

M•1400/M•1400i’s inputs) is powered up
and delivering signal to the amp.

14. Turn the M•1400/M•1400i’s

POWER

switch on and verify that the signal present
(

SIG) LEDs are blinking.

15. Slowly turn both

GAIN

controls up:

You should hear the music and see the

SIG

and meter

LEDs flashing. If the

topmost LEDs (named

OL, for OverLoad)

are flashing, turn down either the

GAIN

controls on the amp or the source signal’s
output level controls (i.e., master faders).
The point is: The

OL LEDs should never

light up.

16. For quieter listening, it is preferable to

adjust the amp’s

GAIN

controls rather

than the source signal’s output level
(unless you have the source’s control all
the way up!).

17. Start dancing, but don’t let the ants out of

your pants.

Things You Must Remember:

• Read and follow the
safety instructions on
page 2, and the hearing
protection details on
page 3, before using the
amplifier.

• Never plug amplifier outputs into any-

thing except speakers (unless you have
an outboard box specifically designed to
handle speaker-level signals).

•

Before making connections to an amp or
reconfiguring an amp’s routing, turn the
amp’s level (

GAIN) controls down, turn

the power off, make the changes, turn
the power back on, and then turn the
level controls back up.

•

If you shut down your equipment, turn
off the amplifiers first. When powering
up, turn on the amplifiers last.

•

Save the shipping boxes! You may need
them someday, and you probably don’t
want to have to pay for them again.
