Terminating the Speaker Wire
(fig. 2)
All the NuVo systems operate across a "homerun"
wiring scheme using Cat-5 for the zone keypad control
communication, and a separate run of speaker wire for
each zone from the speaker outputs to the zone speak-
ers. We suggest 16-gage 2- or 4-conductor speaker
wires.
The speaker wire termination is done using a modular
"Euro" connector. Each conductor is screwed down to
the connector block and plugged into the appropriate
speaker output on the back of the amplifier. The prop-
er termination is Left channel – and +, Right channel –
and +.

System setup works best when the amplifier is placed
Fig. 2
in the same location as the audio source equipment.
This is typically in an audio rack, entertainment cen-
ter, or a closet dedicated to housing the home
audio/video equipment.
The amplifier should be plugged in and the power but-
ton on the front panel should be depressed before pro-
ceeding with the rest of the installation.
This activates
the internal protective circuitry of the Concerto
System.
