RKB-2100 Power Amplifier NOTE: You can remove the feet from the bottom of the amplifier if necessary for clearance in the rack. Save the feet and hardware for future use. After the adaptors are installed, use four bolts supplied with your equipment rack to mount the amplifier. Be sure that all four bolts are tightened properly. Rack Handles The rack mount brackets are supplied with handles which can be installed or removed.
English 9 no impact on sonic performance. Instead, the protection circuit monitors the temperature of the output devices and shuts down the amplifier if temperatures exceed safe limits. In addition, the RKB-2100 includes overcurrent protection which operates only when load impedance drops too low. Should a faulty condition arise, the amplifier will stop playing and the PROTECTION LED on the front panel will light.
RKB-2100 Power Amplifier Speaker Connections See Figure 2 The RKB-2100 has one pair of color coded connections per channel. Labels above the connectors show the proper connections. These speaker connectors accept bare wire, connector lugs, or “banana” type connectors (except in the European Community countries where their use is not permitted). Route the wires from the RKB-2100 to the speakers. Give yourself enough slack so you can move the components enough to allow access to the speaker connectors.
