5. Setup
5.1 Kuiswa
Place the amplifier on a stable, flat surface or mount it in a standard equipment rack. Ensure there is adequate ventilation around the unit to prevent overheating. Avoid placing it near heat sources or in direct sunlight.
5.2 Simba Connection
- Verify the SIMBA SARUDZA switch on the rear panel matches your local power voltage (110V or 230V). Incorrect selection can damage the unit.

5.3 Zvisungo zveMutauriri
The PAC360-6 supports both low impedance (4-16 Ohm) and constant voltage (70V/100V) speaker systems. Do not mix these types of connections on the same output terminals.

Image: Diagram illustrating speaker output connections for both direct 4-16 Ohm and 70V/100V multi-zone setups.

Image: Visual representation of how the PAC360-6 amplifier can distribute audio to six independent zones.
5.3.1 70V/100V Speaker Zone Output
This method is ideal for multi-room applications using multiple speakers. Ensure all speakers have a 70V or 100V transformer.
- Connect the negative ends of your speakers to the 'COM' terminal on the 70V SPEAKER ZONE OUTPUT block.
- Connect the positive ends of each speaker to the designated zone terminals (Z1, Z2, Z3, Z4, Z5, Z6) to create independent zones.
- Iyo yakazara wattage of all connected speakers in a 70V/100V system should not exceed the amplifier's rated power (360W).
5.3.2 Direct Speaker Output (4-16 Ohm / 70V / 100V)
Use these terminals for direct connection to a single speaker or a series of speakers. Note that the 4-16 Ohm output does not have separate zone volume control.
- For 4-16 Ohm speakers: Connect the negative speaker wire to the 'COM' terminal and the positive speaker wire to the '4-16 Ohm' terminal.
- For 70V speakers: Connect the negative speaker wire to the 'COM' terminal and the positive speaker wire to the '70V' terminal.
- For 100V speakers: Connect the negative speaker wire to the 'COM' terminal and the positive speaker wire to the '100V' terminal.
5.4 Input Connections
- RCA Line Inputs: Connect external audio sources (e.g., media players, mixers) to the LINE 1, LINE 2, or LINE 3 RCA input jacks on the rear panel.
- Maikorofoni Inopinza: Connect microphones to the MIC 1 or MIC 2 1/4-inch jacks on the front panel. MIC 1 has priority over other inputs.
- FM Kanyanga: Connect the included FM antenna to the FM ANTENNA terminal on the rear panel for radio reception.
