Installation and cabinet guidance
Check the 187 × 187 mm cutout, 220 × 220 mm face and 5–33 mm clamping thickness range. Leave room behind the 63 mm overall body for the terminals and cables.
With the amplifier off, choose either the 8 Ω input or a marked 100 V transformer tap. Never connect a 100 V line to the 8 Ω input; insulate unused leads.
Tighten the four clamps evenly against a sound mounting surface. Protect the rear wiring and do not treat the IPX3 rating as permission for immersion or an unprotected outdoor installation.
