SINGLE-ENDED INPUTS
Accepts signals from preamp/controllers with single-ended outputs via high
quality RCA connectors.

If you are planning to use single-ended connections between your pream-
plifier and any particular channel of the amplifier, select the single-ended
input by sliding the

input select switch

(see Item 5) toward the RCA input.

Then connect the single-ended outputs of your preamplifier to the corre-
sponding single-ended inputs on the amplifier, using high quality cable
such as CZ Gel-2.

SPEAKER OUTPUTS & BINDING POSTS
This Proceed amplifier is equipped with gold-plated, high-current binding
posts for output termination to a loudspeaker system. To take full advantage
of the amplifier’s sonic quality, we recommend using high-quality speaker
cable; see your Proceed dealer.

Caution!

NEVER connect the amplifier output terminals to any device
other than a loudspeaker.
NEVER short-circuit the amplifier’s output terminals.

There are two recommended methods for connecting speaker cables to the
amplifier. A high-quality spade lug or hook lug, soldered to the cable (or
crimped with extremely high pressure), is best.

Hook lug

For each channel in turn, connect the left-channel (negative or black) out-
put post of the amplifier to the (negative or black) input terminal of the
appropriate loudspeaker.

Then connect the + (positive or red) output post of the amplifier to the +
(positive or red) input terminal of the appropriate loudspeaker.

Repeat this procedure for the other channels.
