IMPORTANT: DO NOT PLUG THE AMPLIFIER’S POWER CORD INTO A CONVENIENCE OUTLET ON ANY OTHER AUDIO OR VIDEO COMPONENT. IMPORTANT: THE AMPLIFIER IS SET TO 70 VOLTS FROM THE FACTORY. CHANGES TO THE POWER CAN BE MADE IN THE SONARC SOFTWARE. If the electrical service is subject to frequent sags, spikes or brownouts, a power conditioner designed for use with high fidelity equipment should be employed to protect the amplifier.
Do N ot Print Speaker Connections Source Connections DSP 2-750 MKII For the best sound you should use premium speaker wire that complies with fire rating codes. Be sure to check local codes governing wire that may be installed within walls or ceilings. Sonamp amplifiers are stable with any reputable brand of speaker wire or cable. The Sonamp amplifiers use speaker block connectors that can accommodate up to 12 gauge wire (see Figure 9).
Protection Circuitry and LEDs Rack Ear Installation DSP 2-750 MKII The Sonamp amplifiers have a multi-stage protection system to prevent damage to your amplifier and speakers. The DSP 2-750 MKII ships with two rack ears. Unscrew the four Phillips head screws (M4 x 0.7 pitch x 10mm long) found on each side of the left and right forward section of amplifier. Use these screws to connect the included rack ears to the amplifier (see Figure 15).
