SELECTION OF PROPER WIRE
We recommend the use of high quality speaker cable.The speaker cable you select will
ideally be fitted with high quality connectors with either spade lugs or dual banana plugs.
In most installations, ordinary lamp cord (16-18 gauge) has enough resistance to
degrade the signal between amplifier and speakers, particularly in lengths over 3 meters
(10’). If possible the speaker cables should be the same length for both channels and
the shorter they are, the better the sonic performance will be.
Amplifier Requirements
Energy
loudspeakers have been designed to be driven to high listening levels with
moderate power, while at the same time being capable of handling the power output
of large amplifiers.
NOTE:
The
Energy
Connoisseur and Pro series speakers are 8 ohms and
will function well with most amplifiers. If using more than one set of speakers, powered
by one amplifier, please check with the amplifier manufacturer to
confirm that the amplifier can handle loads of 4 ohms.
