SPEAKER CONNECTION
Here are three ways in which speakers can be connected to the PA324: A single speaker can be connected to
either the A or B jack of AMP 1 and AMP 2, two speakers can be connected in parallel to both the A and B jacks
of AMP1 and AMP 2, or a single speaker can be connected to the BRIDGE jack (bridge connection). For each of
these, the required speaker impedance will differ.
Refer to the following diagram, and make sure that the speaker impedance is not less than the specified value.
Additional, or alternative amplifiers can be connected to the MAIN OUT and MONITOR OUT jacks on the front
panel.
