Mcintosh MA5100 speaker connection
Finally got a Mac, the MA5100. Im not familiar with the vintage gear, so my question is; the rear panel speaker terminals have 8 screws for each channel. from what I understand, the two center, and inside screws are used for stereo connections, the top being +, and lower being common (-). Am I correct in my assumption?

Yes, you are correct, here is a MA5100 Owners Manual. The top 2 screws and bottom 2 screws on each terminal are not any type of connection. They secure the terminal to the chassis. |
