Connections
Loudspeakers
Check the impedance of your speakers. When using a pair of speakers,
you can use types with an impedance of between 4 and 8 Ohms.
The red coloured speaker terminals are positive (+) and the black speaker
terminals are negative (-). Make sure correct polarity is maintained at
each speaker connector or the sound can become weak and “phasey”
with little bass.
Using bare wire connections
Prepare the speaker cords for connection by stripping off approximately
10mm (3/8”) or less of the outer insulation. More than 10mm could
cause a short circuit. Twist the wires tightly together so there are no loose
ends. Unscrew the speaker terminal, insert the speaker cable, tighten the
terminal and secure the cable.
Note: All connections are made using standard loudspeaker cable.

The diagram below shows how to connect the amplifier to a tape
recorder or other source with a record and monitor connection. Please

the same signal in parallel).
