Provides overload protection.

I. Balanced XLR Inputs

Two 3-pin female XLR input connectors are
provided (one per channel).

J. Fans

Provide front-to-back forced airflow for cool-

K. 5-Way Binding Post Output Jacks

One pair per channel; accept banana plugs,
spade lugs or bare wire. Note: Binding post
outputs on European models come with safety
plugs installed to prevent European power-cord
plugs from being inserted. The top & bottom
entry positions for these connectors should
therefore be used with European models.

L. 4-Pole Speakon

®

Output Connectors

These two connectors accept 2-pole or 4-pole
Speakon connectors. See Figures 2.8, 2.9 and
2.12 and Tables 1, 2 and 3 for connector wir-
ing. The top Speakon connector is wired for
both channels so it can be used for bridge-
mono wiring or for stereo wiring of two speak-
ers to a single Speakon connector.
