Connecting
Remote connector:
Depending the type of pre amplifier it is possible to switch it “On” or “Off” by using the remote connection. For connection a
3 pole XLR mini connector can be used and depending the way your power amplifier should be powered, it can be wired accordingly. The
following connections are available: In case of using a Sonnet Morpheus digital pre amplifier a special set of remote cables can be delivered.
A)
Common
B)
Not connected
C)
When connected to Common Kratos will be switched On.
Loudspeaker terminals:
The RED binding post is connected to the amplifier output . Connect to this post the (+) terminal on the loudspeaker.
The BLACK binding post is connected to signal ground. Connect to this post the (-) terminal on the loudspeaker. The connected loudspeaker
should have a nominal impedance between 4 and 8 Ohms.
The Output binding posts provide three different interconnect options. Combinations
may be used when bi-wiring. Cables should be kept as short as practical and should never be terminated with connectors that may become
confused for AC power connectors. Cables should be dressed away from input and power cables.
1. Banana plugs offer a quick disconnect option. Before inserting a banana plug into the
binding post be sure to tighten the post nut to avoid rattling and to provide full insertion
of the banana plug.
2. Spade lugs provide high contact area and secure fastening. Lugs should be gold plated.
3. Stripped bare wire up to 4 mm diameter can be inserted through the hole in the binding post and held in place by tightening the post knob.
Note that copper wire is malleable and may require further tightening after the initial installation.
