Final Assembly:
20)
Mark the desired location of the Dayton Audio BPA-38G HD Binding Posts (3/4" on center
is the standard spacing if you are using dual banana plugs). Drill a 1/4" hole for each binding
post. Insert the binding posts and tap into place using a mallet or hammer (make sure the bare
wire holes in the binding posts are pointing in the direction you desire). Attach one of the
included nuts and tighten to secure the posts in place.
Note
: If using a hammer place a wooden block between the hammer and binding post to
avoid damaging the finish on the binding post.
21)
Insert crossover through woofer hole and glue crossover to the bottom of the enclosure
(polyurethane glue, high temperature hot glue gun, or epoxy is recommended). Ensure all
crossover components are securely held in place to prevent rattles. Attach the solder ring
terminals to the corresponding binding posts. Secure the solder ring terminals to the binding
posts using the remaining included washers and nuts.
22)
Port installation is simple. Slide the adjustable end of the port onto the flanged end and glue
in place at the desired length using any glue that is acceptable for use on plastic (super glue,
plastic cement, hot glue, et c…). Insert the assembled port into the enclosure and screw into
place using the included #6 x 3/4" Pan Head screws. The recommended port length is 7". The
length can be adjusted to your taste, a shorter port will result in slightly less bottom end with
a tighter punch.
23)
Connect tweeter wires to tweeter terminals while observing polarity and set tweeter in place.
Using a screwdriver, secure the tweeter using the included #6 x 3/4" Pan Head screws, just
until tight, being careful not to strip out the holes (a power drill is not recommended).
24)
Connect woofer wires to woofer terminals while observing polarity and set woofer in place.
Using a screwdriver, secure woofer using the included #6 x 3/4" Pan Head screws, just until
tight, being careful not to strip out the holes (a power drill is not recommended).
25)
You are now ready to enjoy your finished Morel Ardon bookshelf speaker.
