Speaker Wiring
The Speaker Wiring diagrams illustrate options for connecting four speakers
and one subwoofer or two speakers and two subwoofers, or two speakers and
one subwoofer. Observe the proper speaker polarity.
NOTE: Power amplifiers can drive speakers with a nominal impedance
range of 2~ 4-ohms. For maximum power, configure your speakers for a
nominal 2-ohm load. Bridged amplifier channels can only drive 4 ohm
minimum impedance speakers.
NOTE: Do not overlook the use of the proper gauge speaker wire. The
Power series of amplifiers require a minimum of 12-gauge wire.
