Wiring for Low Impedance Applications
If using 8 ohm wiring instead of 70V, only use tap position 1
on Periscape units. Subscape units require specific preparation
for 8 ohm use, outlined in step 5 of the Subscape instructions
section. Use the supplied silicone wire nut to connect the
positive (+) leads of the speaker and input wires. Repeat this
step with the negative (-) leads. Rockustics recommends using
14ga or heavier direct burial cable for the connection between
the amplifier and the speakers.
Wiring for 70V/100V Applications
For speakers with transformers, use
Diagram C and D
to find
the proper wire selection for your desired tap setting. Once
the desired tap setting is confirmed, trim the unused wires to
minimize corrosion. For harsh and wet environments, it is
recommended to apply a bead of silicone to the end of the
unused wires for added protection.
If daisy-chaining, follow wire preparations as outlined in the
Basic Wiring
section. Review
Diagram F
for a typical daisy-chain
wiring system for 70V and 100V applications. Be sure to
connect the wires going to the next speaker in the chain as
shown in
Diagram E
. There should be three pairs of wires at
each speaker, but the last speaker in the chain will only have
two pair. Follow standard protocol for polarity and make sure all
units are wired with the same polarity.
