Unpacking & Installing the Hybrid Line Source
Each module of the Wisdom Audio Sage Cinema Hybrid Line Source speaker is a
substantial piece of equipment. Please exercise caution when unpacking your Sage
Cinema speakers to ensure that you do not strain yourself from its (perhaps un-
expected) weight.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to lift your Hybrid Line Source modules while bending or
twisting from the waist. Use your legs for lifting, not your back. Always stand as
straight as possible and keep the Hybrid Line Source close to your body to reduce
strain on your back.
After unpacking your Hybrid Line Source modules, keep all packing materials
for future transport.
In the event that you need to ship your speaker, only the
original, purpose-designed shipping carton is acceptable. Any other method of ship-
ping this product runs a significant risk of damage to the speaker
—
damage that
would not be covered by the warranty. (If you lose your packaging and need
to ship
your speakers, replacement packaging can be purchased from Wisdom Audio.)
Mounting and Connecting the Hybrid Line Source
The Sage Cinema Hybrid Line Source is designed as a center channel to be installed
either directly above or directly below a direct view display. It may be mounted
either as an in-wall or as an on- wall speaker.
The flexible mounting brackets provided with the Hybrid Line Source allow many
possible mounting options, depending on what you choose to use as your reference
surface. The beveled back edges of the speakers also may be used as a wire chase in
situations where space is tight.
The center module includes a pass through for the speaker wires from the amplifier,
and internal distribution for the line modules on either side. The system is installed as
three modules, side by side starting from the center.
1.
Determine the center line of the display and mark this location.
2.
Mount the Center Module using this center mark. The module should be on-
center to the center line of the display.
3.
Mount the Line Modules to either side of the Center Module, with the top and
bottom aligned and the sides tight to center module.
4.
Pull the speaker wires from the amplifier and connect to the Center Module
input terminals
5.
Connect the fly-leads from the Center Module to each Line Module. The
outputs on the side of the Center Module are aligned with the inputs to the
Line Modules.
