7 Mono (bridged, or BTL) configuration
In this configuration, the MX-5000’s two individual channels op-
erate together to drive a single speaker (such as a subwoofer) in
mono. This allows the amplifier to deliver more than double the
power of one of its channels to the speaker.
1 Make sure that the MX-5000’s power cord is unplugged
from the wall outlet before making any connections.
2 According to the speakers to be used, set the speaker
impedance selector switch as follows:
For 6-16 speakers: Set the 2 (STEREO)/6 OVER
switch to 6OVER and 6 OVER/2switch to 2.
3 Connect the amplifier as shown in the diagram.
Make sure to connect the audio input cable to the MONO/
BTL input.
Note: Since bridged operation produces
enough output power to pose a small
risk of electrical shock from the
speaker terminals, please attach the
terminal cover as shown in the diagram
below:
Now you can plug the power cord of this unit into the AC outlet!
CAUTION:
Before reconnecting a speaker cord or switching a selector switch, turn OFF the power and unplug the power cord to
avoid malfunctions or damage to the unit.
