CONNECTION IN PARALLEL

The two input jacks are connected in parallel inside the unit so that connections can easily be made as shown in the diagram. Power amplifiers are normally designed for stable operation with 4 or 8 ohm impedance loads. NEVER CONNECT MORE THAN TWO SPEAKER UNITS IN PARALLEL unless the power amplifier is designed to operate with a load impedance lower than 4 ohms.
