Precautions Before Connection

Always turn off the amplifier's power before making any connections. Before turning the amplifier back on, ensure the volume is at minimum and there are no short circuits in the wiring. Ensure sufficient space behind the amplifier for cable connections.

IV. Connections

Power Supply

Connect the female end of the supplied mains cable to the power connector on the rear panel and plug the other end into a wall socket. Contact your dealer if the cable is not suitable for your outlets.

Using Loudspeakers

The Connect 2130Xi is designed for 4 or 8 Ω impedance loudspeakers. The amplifier terminals are Euroblock type.

Stereo Mode

Set the switch to "STEREO" position. In stereo mode, you can connect two loudspeakers (2 x 130W). Connect the right loudspeaker to the '+' and 'R' terminals and the left loudspeaker to the '-' and 'L' terminals.

Mono / 100V Mode

Set the switch to "MONO/100V" position. In mono mode, connect a single loudspeaker (1 x 250W / 8Ω). In 100V mode, multiple loudspeakers can be connected in parallel. Ensure correct channel connections for a faithful stereo image.

Low Power Mode

For prolonged periods of non-use, you can switch the device to LOW POWER mode by sending a constant signal (5V to 12V) to the TRIGGER IN input. To exit this mode, reset the signal to 0. The TRIGGER OUT can be used to chain this signal to other devices. LOW POWER mode puts the power module into standby. For extended periods of non-use, switch off the device using the On/Off switch.
