CONNECTION OF THE LOUDSPEAKERS
Either a single pair of loudspeakers or two speaker pairs can be connected to the amplifier SV-238MK.
For each loudspeaker you will find two connector screws (positive + und negative –) at the amplifier's
backside. One side of the speaker cable must be attached here. Each pair of screws has a label "R" or
"L" nearby to clarify to which stereo channel it belongs. At the loudspeaker connection terminal there are
similar connector screws or connectors. There, the polarity of each screw (+ or –) can be identified as well
and the other side of the speaker cable associated with this speaker must be attached. Make sure only
connector screws of the same polarity will be connected by each speaker cable wire: a knob marked "+"
in the amplifier's terminal must be connected with a speaker's connector screw marked "+" as well.
Our sketch shows all connections necessary for one pair of speakers. If a second pair of loudspeakers is
intended to be used, the connector screws of the lower row must be connected in a similar fashion to the
additional speakers' input connectors. However, this is only permitted if both loudspeakers have a nomi-
nal impedance of at least 8 Ω.

Right and Left loudspeaker
If every speaker is connected in a conventional way (a two core speaker cable for each loudspeaker) and
you own loudspeakers that are equipped with Bi-Wiring terminals (four connector screws) you have to
make sure that the metal brackets (contact pieces consisting of small metal plates or short pieces of cable
which are supplied with the speakers) are applied to the terminal and that each one connects the two
knobs of the same polarity (e.g. both connectors marked "+"). The connector screw labelled "+" and "R"
at the amplifier's backside must be connected to one of the bridged, labelled "+" connectors of the loud-
speaker assigned to the right stereo channel. Accordingly, the connector screw labelled "–" and "R" at
the amplifier's backside must be connected to one of the bridged, labelled "–" connectors of the loudspea-
ker assigned to the right stereo channel. Connect the left side loudspeaker in the corresponding way.
