The Avant 150 is equipped with gold-plated binding post terminals, where
red indve and black indicates -ve. The following information
should assist in choosing the correct cable if extra cable is required:
Cable run
Cable gauge
< 3 m
14/36 (14 strands of 36 SWG)
3-6 m
23/36
> 6 m
48/36
Please proceed with the connection in the following fashion:
· Turn off the amplifier.
· Gently pull off the insulation on the cable ends (which has been pre-
cut at the factory).
· Twist the strands on the wire together.
· Turn the gold plated binding posts counter-clockwise until the twisted
wires can be easily inserted into the holes.
· Turn the binding posts clockwise to secure the cables in the terminals.
· Ensure the connection is a tight fit. Also ensure that no loose strand of
the wire is projecting from either of the cables.
NOTE:
A. Verify that the wires from the +ve and -ve cables do not touch each
other, as a short-circuit could damage the amplifier's output stage.
B. Verify that the loudspeaker is in proper phase: The + (red) terminal
on the loudspeaker is connected to the + (red) terminal on the
amplifier. The - (black) terminal on the loudspeaker is connected to
the - (black) terminal on the amplifier.
C. The Avant 150 terminals also accept banana plugs. If you use the
connectors, do take heed of points A and B
