AC POWER CORD CONNECTION
To connect the power cord to your amplifier simply plug female side of the power cord into the power cord input which is on the rear of the amplifier. Then plug the male side of the power cord to an electric outlet. The AC power cords supplied purposefully have 2 blades and one grounding prong. If your outlet is not equipped to handle this type of plug, do not attempt to forcefully plug this AC power cord into the outlet, and do not alter the plug so that it can fit in the outlet. The only course of action you can take is to find another outlet which is properly equipped to handle a grounded plug or have an electrician upgrade your electrical outlet. Be sure that the plug is well connected so that it does not disconnect in the middle of usage. If any point in time the supplied AC power cord is punctured or damaged replace it with a new power cord from a local electrician
NOTE: ONLY PLUG IN THE AC POWER CORD WHILE THE UNIT’S POWER IS OFF AND THE VOLUME IS TURNED DOWN. TURNING ON THE UNIT WITH THE VOLUME TURNED UP MAY CAUSE THE UNIT OR ANY SPEAKERS CONNECTED TO IT TO BE DAMAGED. ALWAYS TURN DOWN THE VOLUME PRIOR TO TURNING OFF THE UNIT.
INPUT / OUTPUT CONNECTIONS Connecting the signal source to the AX2000 ( DVD/MIXER etc.)
The AX2000 has two RCA input jacks on the rear of the unit which is designed to receive the signal directly from your DVD,mixer or any of your other 2 Channel signal sources. To ensure that you have correctly connected your DVD player (other sound sources) to the unit, make sure that the DVD player has a RCA cord coming from its output and that this cord is plugging into the RCA input on the rear of the AX2000. Ensure that the polarity of your signale is always maintained by using color coordinated RCA cables.
NOTE: BE SURE NOT TO CONNECT AN AMPLIFIER OR ANY AMPLIFIER SIGNAL INTO THE RCA INPUT JACK. AS THIS COULD DAMAGE THE AX2000. NO OTHER AMPLIFIER IS NEEDED TO POWER YOUR SIGNAL IN ADDITION TO THE AX2000. ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS ONLY ON AMPLIFIER IN THE SIGNAL PATH.
Connecting the AX2000 to passive speakers
The amplifier is designed to power up to two full range passive loudspeakers. Connect up to two speakers using the banana binding post outputs with a banana connector or speaker wire. If you are using speaker wire to connect via the banana binding post, follow the instructions on Page5.
NOTE: WHEN MAKING THESE CONNECTIONS THE POWER OF THE AX2000 AND THE SIGNAL SOURCES SHOULD ALL BE IN THE OFF POSITION WITH THE VOLUME LEVELS TURNED DOWN. ONCE THE UNITS ARE ALL POWERED ON, SLOWLY INCREASE THE VOLUME TO AVOID DAMADGING ANY OF YOUR EQUIPMENT. THE AMPLIFIER OPERATED MOST EFFICIENTLY WHEN USED WITH 8 OHM SPEAKERS
ACCESSORIES INCLUDED: POWER CABLE, RCA CABLE, MANUAL AND WARRANTY.
