Speaker Wiring
The Sekrit DSM has 4 DAC channels and 4 Power Amplifiers. These amplifiers can be configured in single ended mode or bridged mode. All speaker outputs (and Analogue Output) share the same common Volume control.
Connections to the speakers are made via Neutrik Speakon connectors, NL4FX. Neutrik Speakon Assembly Instructions
The single ended mode is best suited to bi-amping a pair of passive speakers or for driving multiple pairs of loadspeakers. Bridged mode is best suited to driving a single pair of loudspeakers.
The wiring details are shown below:
- 33W/channel in single-ended mode
- 50W/channel in bridged mode
Installation
Please read the following carefully before installing the unit in your system – your unit may need to be reconfigured by your Linn retailer.
