    Rear Callouts Input Connectors - Connect incoming signal to these electronically balanced XLR or unbalanced RCA jacks. MODE Switch - For normal operation, place this three-way switch in the STEREO posi- tion. When placed in its BRIDGE position, the signal arriving at the Ch A input only is again routed to both power amplifiers (the Ch B input is ignored), but the two power amplifiers are bridged together.
