Connecting Your Loudspeakers
Conventional Loudspeaker Connections
Loudspeaker cable is polarity coded along one edge. Split the cable to a depth of about 25mm and strip 8mm
of insulation from each wire. If the cable is stranded, twist the strand together.
Terminal Panels
Your loudspeakers use two or four terminals. When single wiring speakers use the connecting links as shown
opposite. Unscrew the terminal. Thread the bare end of the cable through the cross-hole ensuring there are no
loose strands. Tighten securely. Connect the red, positive (+) terminal of the left loudspeaker to the corre-
sponding red, positive (+) amplifier terminal. Connect the black, negative (-) terminals similarly. Repeat for the
right channel.
Bi-Wiring
All floorstanding speaker models in the Mission QX MKII Series can be bi-wired for improved performance.
Remove both pairs of shorting links and connect a cable to each pair of terminals, running them to a common
connection at the amplifier output terminals. In the figure to the right, the terminal panel on the left is bi-wired;
the panel on the right is conventionally wired. Note the shorting links.
Bi-Amping
By using separate amplifiers for LF and HF drive units you can further improve performance. This is known as biamping.
Note that the amplifier inputs are linked.
