    2.3 Ensuring Proper Cooling When using an equipment rack, keep a minimum space of 4 inches (10cm) from the top surface of the unit. Close any open spaces in the rack with blank panels. DO NOT block any air vents. The side walls of the rack should be a minimum of 2 inches (5 cm) from the amplifier sides.
  • Page 18: Output Wiring And Connectors

    To drive distributed speaker systems designed to operate at 70V or 100V, connect to the corresponding output terminals. JBL recommends using pre-built or professionally wired, high-quality, two-conductor, heavy gauge speaker wire. Speakers wires should be twisted cable, if possible. To prevent the possibility of short-circuits, the wires should be stripped back no greater than 6 mm (1/4 inch), see Figure 2.5.2.
