THE TOTAL SPEAKER SYSTEM IMPEDANCE IS AT
LEAST 4 OHM PER CHANNEL FOR CHANNELS A AND
B, AND AT LEAST 2 OHM FOR THE SUBWOOFER
CHANNEL. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE OF YOUR TOTAL
SPEAKER IMPEDANCE LOAD, CONTACT YOUR
DEALER FOR MORE INFORMATION.
• CHECK CONDITION OF SPEAKER CABLES.
• IF USING BARE WIRE CONNECTIONS ON THE
OUTPUTS OF THE AMPLIFIER, BE SURE THAT NO
STRANDS FROM ONE CONNECTOR ARE TOUCHING
ANY OTHER CONNECTOR.

• CHECK YOUR SPEAKER IMPEDANCE (INFO FROM
DEALER).
• CHECK THAT THE FUSE TYPE AND RATING IS
CORRECT.
