Normal single wiring
For single wiring, we recommend that you use the
SPEAKER 1
set of terminals on your amplifier. If each
speaker has more than one pair of connecting terminals,
use the terminals labelled
LF
or ‘Low Frequency’.
Connect the red positive terminal of the right speaker
connection on the amplifier (labelled
R+
) to the positive
terminal of your right speaker. Similarly, connect the
black negative terminal of the right speaker connection
on the amplifier (labelled
R-
) to the negative terminal
of your speaker. Repeat the process for the left speaker,
using the terminals labelled
L+
and
L-
on the amplifier.
WARNING: If your speakers support bi-wiring, there will be a
strip of conductive metal connecting the low-frequency (
LF
)
terminals to the high-frequency (
HF
) terminals; this MUST NOT
BE REMOVED in a single-wired system.
Notes on making speaker connections
<
Do not make any connections to any amplifier while it is switched on. We recommend that your
amplifier is completely disconnected from the mains supply before starting.
<
Before switching your amplifier(s) on for the first time after connecting to speakers, please check all
connections thoroughly. Ensure that bare wires or cables are not touching each other or the amplifier’s
chassis (which could cause short circuits), and that you have connected positive (+) to positive and
negative (–) to negative. Be sure to check the wiring for both the amplifier and the speaker.
<
After making connections: switch the amplifier(s) on, select a source signal, then gradually increase the
volume to the required listening level.
<
If you are unsure as to how your system should be connected, or need advice on bi-amping, please
contact your Arcam dealer who will be happy to help you.
Connecting
loudspeakers
There are many different ways of connecting your
loudpeakers to your A49 or P49/P349 and the following
section describes how to connect and configure the
loud speakers and amplifier for the most common
configurations.

Bi-wiring
Bi-wiring is performed in the same way as single wiring
except that, a pair of cables are used to connect the
amplifier to each speaker.
Follow the instructions given for single wiring; then
perform the same actions, this time connecting the
SPEAKER 2
set of terminals on your amplifier to the
terminals labelled HF or ‘High Frequency’ for each
speaker.
WARNING: Speakers that support bi-wiring have a strip of
metal that connects the low frequency (
LF
) terminals to the
high frequency (
HF
) terminals. This MUST BE REMOVED in a
bi-wired system.
