CHAPTER 2
NOTE:
The minimum electrical service am-
perage required by the 700-HP subwoofer
system is the sum of each loudspeaker’s
maximum
long-term continuous current
. An additional 30 per-
cent above the minimum amperage is recommended
to prevent peak voltage drops at the service entry.
CAUTION:
In the unlikely event that the cir-
cuit breakers on the user panel trip (the white
center buttons pop out), disconnect the AC power
cable. Do not reset the breakers with the AC con-
nected. Contact Meyer Sound for repair information.
POWER CONNECTOR WIRING CONVENTIONS
The 700-HP subwoofer requires a grounded outlet. It is very
important that the system be properly grounded in order
to operate safely and properly. Figures 2.2, 2.3, and 2.4
illustrate correct wiring for the creation of power cables and
distribution systems.

If your 700-HP subwoofer is fitted with the VEAM multipin
connector, see the Meyer Sound document VEAM Cable
Wiring Reference (part number 06.033.113) for the wiring
conventions and pin-outs for AC, audio, and RMS connec-
tions.
Meyer Sound offers the VIM-3 (VEAM interface module) to
distribute power, audio, and RMS to 700-HP subwoofers
fitted with VEAM connectors, as shown in Figure 2.5.
