1. LOUDSPEAKER BINDING POSTS (OUTPUTS)
Provide audio output. Two pair of custom-made, high-current Cardas binding posts
labeled + (positive) and - (negative) are included.
These binging posts are designed to facilitate high pressure, high contact area
connections without the use of tools such as nut drivers. A simple finger-tightening
actually yields higher contact pressure than traditional hex binding posts. There is no
need to exert unusual effort when tightening.
CAUTION!
NEVER connect power amplifier outputs to any component other than a loudspeaker.
NEVER short-circuit power amplifier outputs.
NEVER connect power amplifier outputs to another power amplifier's outputs.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN the Model 2.125 binding posts. Tight, high-contact pressure
connections can be achieved with finger-tightening.
DO NOT FORCE the Model 2.125 binding post "wings" up and over a bent or oversized
connector. Doing so may result in binding post damage. If the connector obstructs
"wing"-turning, slide it into place when the binding post opening provides a snug fit.
Then, use quarter-turns to tighten the connection as needed.
2. DC TRIGGER INPUT TERMINALS
Provide DC trigger control. One 3.5mm mini-jack is available to receive 12V DC signals
from a connected component. Toggling the connected component between ON and
STANDBY will toggle the Model 2.125 into and out of STANDBY.
3. POWER INPUT (AC IN)
Connect to an AC power supply using the included power supply cord.
