CARVIN RL210T User manual

SPEAKER CABLES
12 gauge Twist-lock speaker cables will provide a secure connection and high
current transfer of power to the speakers. You can also use standard 1/4" speaker
cables instead of the Twist-Lock cables provided they are at least 16 gauge. You
can DAISY-CHAIN up to one additional speaker per cable by using the unused
OUTPUT jack (right side) on your speaker jack plate. Be sure to note the total
impedance to the amp so it is not lower than it’s recommended impedance. See
Typical Loudspeaker Impedance Configurations.
PRECAUTIONS
1) DO NOT EXCEED THE POWER RATING marked on the rear connect plate.
Excessive power will destroy drivers. 2) DISTORTION from power amps will destroy
drivers much faster than clean power. 3) WATER, MOISTURE, and DUST are
harmful to drivers causing failure which is not covered under warranty.
