∑Raccordement des enceintes
Avant d’effectuer les raccordements
OVérifiez l’impédance des enceintes.
Vous pouvez brancher des enceintes
ayant une impédance de 4 à 16 ohms.
Sur l’amplificateur les bornes rouges «
SPEAKER » sont les bornes
≠
(positives), les noires sont les bornes –
(négatives).
OL’extrémité ≠ du câble de l’enceinte est
marquée pour la distinguer de
l’extrémité
–. Branchez l’extrémité
marquée sur la borne rouge
≠, et
l’extrémité non marquée sur la borne
noire.
OAvant de brancher les cordons des
enceintes, préparez-les en dénudant le
fil sur 1 cm maximum. (le dénuder
davantage peut provoquer un courtcircuit.)
∑Branchement des enceintes
(1) Torsadez les fils ensemble pour éviter
qu’ils ne partent dans tous les sens.
(2) Dévisser le bornier en tournant dans le
sens inverse des aiguilles d’une montre.
Il n’est pas possible de le retirer
complètement.
(3) Insérer le fil à fond dans la borne.
Resserrez le bornier en le tournant dans
