IMPORTANT NOTICE TO USER
In certain circumstances it may be required to protect your speakers from overload and possible
damage as the Citation Twelve produces in excess of
60 watts, RMS, per channel, both channels
driven simultaneously. Although there are many high quality speakers which can handle this
power, it
is still recommended, as a safety factor, that your speakers be fused for their protection.
The chart below indicates the appropriate size fuse to use with speakers that are conservatively
rated with music power specifications. It has been our experience that very few speakers are
rated in terms of sine wave
(RMS) power. However, in the event your speaker is rated according
to this rigid specification, contact the speaker manufacturer for the comparable music power
rating.

'The speaker fuse should be in the positive speaker line and located at or near the speaker input
terminals. It should NOT be located at the amplifier speaker terminals.
The fuse and fuse holder can be obtained at any electronic supply store. You may use either an
in-line or block type fuse, as shown in the drawing below.
