B6.Pull the speaker cable through the conduit
coupler and attach to the supplied Phoenix-type
connector
(8)
. This is a 4-position connector,
with two "+" and two "–" terminals. Connect the
speaker cable to the "+" and "–" terminals labeled
IN
. If connecting another speaker in a distributed
system (in parallel), connect the speaker cable
running to the next speaker to the "+" and "–"
terminals labeled
LOOP THRU
.

is provided to
secure the loudspeaker to the building structure
with wire cabling for additional support where
required by local construction codes. We
recommend using this secondary support for
additional safety.

4. Set the Tap Selector Switch
(12)
. Make sure all
the taps in the system add up to less than the
rated power of the amplifier driving them. As a
general rule, you should provide at least 10%
headroom to account for insertion losses (i.e.,
wiring resistance, etc.). For example, if you have
four speakers tapped at 30 watts each, the
amplifier should be rated at least 132 watts.
5. Set the Full-Range/High-Pass Selector Switch
(13)
. For normal operation, set the switch to the
FULL RANGE
position. If a subwoofer is being
used in the system to reinforce the very-low
frequencies, use the
HIGH PASS
position to roll
off the frequencies below 150 Hz. This provides
the added benefit of making more power
available for the crucial mid and high frequencies.
If the speaker is being used in a low-impedance
system, use the
FULL RANGE (16 OHM)
position. This bypasses the tapped transformer.
6. Install the grille
(1)
by pressing it into place until
the front of the grille is flush with the front baffle
rim. It is important that the grille be securely
seated to avoid having it vibrate loose.
