11 connecting audio inputs the audio inputs are located on the rear panel. The cm16a uses terminal block connectors for the audio inputs. They are sometimes called “phoe- nix” or “euro”connectors. These connectors allow the installer to pre- wire the input terminations before the cm16a is installed ...
