Class 2 wiring is wiring that carries potentials of < 50 (or is it 52 ... ) volts. Phone wiring, bell wiring, and most remote control wiring fall into class 2. So does audio wiring when it is driven by a low voltage source. That Carver receiver can put 60 or 70 volts on the line -- like most medium to high power audio gear, it packs a wallop. from Mole End Mark Terribile (scrape .. dig ) hou4b!mat ,.. .,, ,,, ..,***_*. -- from Mole End Mark Terribile (scrape .. dig ) hou4b!mat ,.. .,, ,,, ..,***_*.
