2.6.1 Dual-Mode Operation (cont.)


Slide the rear-panel switch marked Bridge/Mono/Stereo to the Stereo
position. Be sure the power button is off (out), then plug the line cord
into a grounded AC outlet.

The amplifier is now ready for Dual-mode operation.



2.6.2 Single-Mode Operation

Your Stewart AV-Series amplifier may also be configured for Mono
Operation. This allows the amplifier to power two speakers with inde-
pendent gain settings using only one input.

Input Connection
The input signal should be connected to Channel 2 if using the RCA
(phono) connectors. Nothing should be connected to Channel 1. If us-
ing the 3.5mm stereo input, the right (ring) channel’s signal will be
used.

Output Connections
Prepare the speaker leads as described in section 2.5. The speaker
leads should be attached to the Phoenix block connector with regard to
their polarity. See diagram for further clarification.

The amplifier is now ready for Single-mode operation.
