WARNING! Never turn on or use the amplifier without a load or speaker connected to the amplifier.
ALWAYS use a good quality (non-shielded) speaker cable. Never use (shielded) instrument cable.
ALWAYS match the amplifier’s speaker output impedance to the impedance of the speaker
that is being used. Use only one type impedance output at a time. If more than one speaker is
connected at the same time, make sure they all have the same impedance rating. Never use
two or more cabinets with different impedance ratings. This will create an unbalanced load.
When using multiple speaker cabinets (with the same impedance rating), match the total load
impedance of the speaker cabinets to the speaker output of the amplifier.
