Samson DMS80 - Manual (Page 11)

NOTE: Please read the Operating Notes Section (pg. 4) of this manual
before connection or attempting to operate the DMS80.
1. Unpack the DMS80. Find a secure place where the DA80 and M40
speakers will be used. The DA80 amplifier is strong enough to sup-
port 40 lbs. (18kg) and can be placed under a computer monitor if
so desired. Make sure the DA80 is on a hard surface, (to allow air
flow to the bottom vents) especially if the top air vents are being
blocked by a monitor base.
2. Connect the speakers to the DA80. Strip approximately 3 ⁄
8
″
of insula-
tion off each end of the speaker wire. Twist each end. While
depressing the red or black push-spring speaker terminals on the
rear of the DA80, insert the speaker wire into the connectors.
Release the push-spring and be sure that the wire is securely held
in place. Connect the other end of the wire to the speaker terminals
in the same fashion while observing speaker polarity. See diagram
below.
NOTE: Any non-amplified speakers may be used as long as they
are rated to meet a 6 ohm to 8 ohm impedance.

3. Connect the SUBWOOFER (optional). Connect the SUB OUT
MONO jack to a powered subwoofer speaker system or to an ampli-
fier powering a subwoofer speaker. Because this is a line level out-
put, a shielded cable must be used for this connection. The SUB
LEVEL regulates the volume to the subwoofer after the MASTER
VOLUME Control. Adjust the SUB LEVEL control until a good blend
between the subwoofer and speakers is achieved.
