9. Determine the proper
wattage setting for each
speaker in the installation
and set each speaker’s
transformer tap selector
(see Figure 10).
FITTING THE TERMINAL COVER
Fit the wiring terminal covers into the recesses in the
speakers’ front panels (see Figure 11). The covers should fit
tightly, but can be removed and replaced if the speakers
need to be disconnected.

7. Connect the wires from your amplifier to the input
connector.
8. Strip approximately 0.1875” (5mm) of the insulation
off each wire. Insert the wire into the correct square
opening on the connector. Use a small flat head
screwdriver to tighten the corresponding screw to
secure the wire.
When using multiple speakers you can connect the
speakers either in parallel or in the loop through method
as shown (see Figure 8 and 9).

THE GRILLE IS TO BE INSERTED. PULL ON THE FRONT
OF THE CABINET TO ENSURE THE CLIPS ARE FULLY
SEATED AND THAT THE BRACKET IS SECURE.
Pull enough wire through the front of the speaker to allow
connection to the terminals.
SETTING TRANSFORMER TAP SWITCH
Sonance Professional Series Surface Mount MKII speakers
are factory set for maximum output when used with a
Sonamp DSP 2-750 MKII or another 70V/100V amplifier.
No additional work is necessary if the speakers are
operating in 70V or 100V and can run at their full volume
capacity. Applications for changing the tap switch from
factory default:
•
Speakers are to be installed in sensitive areas and
need to be “tapped down” for lower volume
•
More speakers are needed to be added to a 70V/100V
amplifier already operating at full capacity
•
A small zone is to be driven by an 8 Ohm amplifier
8 OHM TAP SETTINGS
Aligning the values on the dial with the arrow indicators
on either side to the “8 Ohm” setting is effective for 8
Ohm amplifier connections.
70V TAP SETTINGS
Align the arrow positioned with the 70V values to the
desired wattage setting. Turning the dial one click stop in
either direction increases or decreases the speaker’s input
power.
100V TAP SETTINGS
Align the arrow positioned with the 100V values to the
desired wattage setting. Turning the dial one click stop in
either direction increases or decreases the speaker’s input
power.
