Stereo Operation
Make sure that the mode switch (3) is at the “Dual Coil” setting.
Connect the left output of the amplifier to the L channel SPK input (5)
Connect the right output of the amplifier to the R channel SPK input (1)
The output is a mono mix of both sides of the amplifier.
8Ω impedance each channel.
Adding satellite speakers
Each SPK connector has a parallel set of binding posts (2, 4).
These can be used to connect onto full range left and right
cabinets for powering from the same amplifier, forming a “2.1”
system. Check the amplifier manufacturer’s information to
ensure that the load connected to each output is no lower than
the minimum impedance quoted for the amplifier and that the
CXB sub + speakers can handle the shared output power.
Mono operation
If the CXB cabinet is to be powered as a standalone subwoofer without
satellite speakers attached, both coils can be linked together by moving
the mode switch to the “Parallel” setting to give a 4Ω subwoofer.
In this instance, make sure that the amplifier is stable down to 4Ω and
connected to the L channel input.
Do not connect any other equipment to the L channel binding posts.
(These may only be used as a bare wire alternative to the SPK input)
