8.0 REFERENCE
8.1 GUIDE: Maximum Speakers Per Circuit Run For systems where the wiring is looped through to subsequent speakers, the terminals support a maximum of 20 Amps of current for the input plus the loop out. As long as the cable gauge is large enough to support the current, the following chart shows the maximum number of speakers per cable run that the terminals support, based on: a) whether the speakers are set to low-impedance (8) or highimpedance (ie, set at a Tap), and b) if high impedance, what Tap the speakers are set at.
Notes: 1) The speaker cable gauge needs to also be able to support the number of speakers connected in looped-out circuit. 2) For combinations of tap settings, system designer must compute the total current draw and ensure that it stays under 20A. 3) Total impedance must stay above the minimum impedance capability of amp channel. 4) Total power connected must be below the maximum power capability of amp channel.
COL600 Low-Impedance (8) Maximum 6 speakers 20W Tap Maximum 70 speakers 10W Tap Maximum 141 speakers 5W Tap Maximum 282 speakers 2.5W Tap (70V only) Maximum 564 speakers
