To connect the Monoprice 114566 amplifier to your audio system, follow these steps:
1. Power off and unplug all equipment that will be connected to the amplifier.
2. Prepare seven lengths of speaker wire to connect each of the seven output channels to its respective speaker.
3. Connect one end of a two-conductor speaker wire to the input terminals on a speaker, then connect the other end to the corresponding Output terminals on the amplifier. Make sure to maintain polarity with positive to positive and negative to negative connections.
4. Repeat step 3 for each of the other six speakers.
5. Use a single RCA or XLR cable to connect the preamp outputs on your preamplifier to the corresponding Input on the amplifier. Plug one end of the cable into the Input on the amplifier and the other end into the preamplifier output of the same name. For example, connect the Center channel input on the amplifier to the Center channel output on the preamplifier.
6. Repeat step 5 for each of the other six channels.
7. (Optional) If your source device has a trigger output, you can use a two-conductor 3.5mm TS cable to connect the Trigger Input on the amplifier to the trigger output on your source device.
8. Ensure that the Master Power switch on the rear panel of the amplifier is in the OFF position and that the Power switch on the front panel is in the Standby position.
9. Use the included AC power cable to connect the C19 connector on the cable to the C20 panel connector on the amplifier. Then, plug the other end of the cable into a nearby AC power source. Make sure not to plug the amplifier into a switched outlet on a preamplifier or other audio component. The amplifier should be plugged directly into an AC wall outlet.
10. Ensure that the volume on the preamplifier is set to the minimum level.
11. Power on all equipment connected to the amplifier, then press the Master Power button on the amplifier to power it ON. The power button LED will blink until the circuitry is properly warmed up. Once the LED stops blinking and illuminates steadily, the amplifier has finished the start-up process and is ready for operation.
By following these steps, you should be able to properly connect the Monoprice 114566 amplifier to your audio system. For more detailed information and illustrations, please refer to the User's Manual provided with the amplifier.
