Connection Terminals

Inputs

Balanced input connections are available via barrier strip or XLR connectors. The unit
is shipped with pin 2 high (see subsequent instructions to change polarity). As usual,
for unbalanced inputs, the unused terminal should be terminated to ground (the
negative input terminals on the barrier strip are located adjacent to the ground termi-
nal for this purpose).

Input sensitivity is 1 Vrms, and impedance is 20 kilohm balanced, 10 kilohm

unbalanced, as is typical of JBL amplifiers.

The input jacks are located on a removable panel which has a toggle switch for

(1) bridged-mono (2) normal stereo, or (3) paralleling the inputs. See page 2 for more
information about the Open Input Architecture slots.
