9. In STEREO and MONO, connect speaker
cables to the SPEAKER OUTPUTS
either binding post or 1/4" TS:
• The binding posts are wired
red = positive (+) and black = negative (–)
• The 1/4" TS connectors are wired
tip = positive (+) and sleeve = negative (–)
10. In BRIDGE mode, using a single speaker:
• The speaker positive (+) connects to
CH 1's red binding post.
• The speaker negative (–) connects to
CH 2's red binding post.
• Plug nothing into the black posts or the
1/4" speaker output jacks.
11. Plug the amp's power cord into the IEC
receptacle
and the other end into a
3-prong AC outlet capable of delivering at
least 12 amps (US model).
12. Make sure the signal source feeding the
M•800's inputs is powered up and deliver-
ing signals to the amp.
13. Turn the M•800's POWER
and verify that the NORM
Status LED is on.
14. Slowly turn both GAIN
You should now hear the lovely music.
15. If the topmost LEDs (named OL, for
OverLoad) are flashing, turn down either
the GAIN controls on the amp or the source
signal's level controls (e.g., master faders).
The point is: The OL LEDs should not light
continuously in normal use.

16. For quieter listening, it is preferable to
adjust the amp's GAIN
than the source signal's output level
(unless you have the source's control all
the way up!)
Things to Remember:
• Never connect the
amplifier speaker outputs
into anything except
speakers (unless you have
an outboard box specifi-
cally designed to handle speaker-level
signals).
• Read and follow all the safety informa-
tion shown on page 2 before using the
amplifier.
• Turn the amplifier off before making any
connections, reconfiguring cables or
setting the rear panel switches.
• When you shut down your sound system,
turn off the amplifiers first.
• When powering up your system, turn on
the amplifiers last.
• Keep the load above 2 ohms for stereo
and 4 ohms for bridge operation.
• Keep the LIMITER
appliciations.
• Make sure the OL lights do not come on
very often. Turn down the amplifier or
mixer/preamp gain if they do. Failure to
do this may lead to the amplifier over-
heating, speaker distortion and damage.
• Save the shipping boxes! You may need
them someday, and you probably don't
want to have to pay for them again.
