the upper module. Refer to the Sasha DAW Propagation Delay 
Tables and the procedure in the previous section to determine 
the correct Aspherical Propagation delay spikes as necessary, 
the Alignment Block position, and the proper step location on 
which to place the rear spike.

Install the Upper Module As Follows:

1.  Install the front pair of short (AA length) spikes into the bot-

tom of each module.

2.  Refer to the table labeled “Sasha DAW Upper Spike Length”in 

Section 5 and install the appropriate rear spike if necessary. 

3.  Refer to table labeled “Sasha DAW Upper Alignment Block Step” 

in Section 5.  Using the numbers engraved on the side of the 
back, make sure the spike rests on the correct alignment step.

NOTE: Take caution not to scratch the painted surface with the alignment 
spike as you install the Upper Module.

Note: Ensure that the two front spikes are properly seated in their recepta-
cles and that the Upper Module is not skewed atop the Woofer Module. The 
Upper Module sides should be parallel to the sides of the Woofer Module. 
This will ensure correct propagation alignment of the drivers.

The correct connection of the two umbilicals to the Upper Module is as 

follows:

1.  There are two sets of connections on the Upper Module, one 

for the midrange and the other for the tweeter.

2.  Locate the cable marked “MID FREQ.” This cable exits the Woof-

er Module just below the appropriate connector. Connect 
the RED lug of the cable to the RED (positive) terminal on the 
Upper Module. Connect the black lug of the cable to the BLACK 
(negative) terminal. 

3.  Locate the cable marked “TWEETER.” Repeat Step 2 above. 

Note: Please ensure that you do not invert the polarity of the umbilicals in 
the Sasha DAW. Such an inversion will produce entertaining ambient ef-
fects, but destroys the linearity and harmonic structure of the system.
