Connecting the speakers
Our passive speakers are no difficult load to common amplifiers. An amplifier power of 100 W … 400 W
at 4 Ω is suggested. Due to the linearized impedance the operation with tube amplifiers is possible
without difficulties. Your authorized ME Geithain dealer will gladly provide you with professional
advice.
6.1
Single-wiring connection
When connecting the speakers to an integrated amplifier or a power stage check the connection for
the right polarity. The gold-plated screwed joints of the terminal are labelled with + and a -. Both
mustn’t be interchanged. Do not remove the bridges between the high and low frequency terminals.
6.2
Bi-wiring connection
In this case the high and low frequency crossovers are separately connected to your integrated
amplifier or power stage. Remove the bridges between the high and low frequency terminals before
connecting the speakers to the amplifier. Check the connection for the right polarity. The gold-plated
screwed joints are labelled with a + and a – and mustn’t be interchanged.
