Installation and cabinet guidance

Allow for a 46 mm panel opening and 60 mm fixing pitch. Leave space around the two mounting lugs and provide access to the solder connections.

Use an amplifier suitable for the 8 Ω load and observe terminal polarity. For a 100 V line system, connect through a suitable line transformer; do not connect the driver directly to the line.
