confidence_Dynaudio CONNECTING TO THE ELECTRONICS
To make the most of the Confidence performance, please con-
sider the following suggestions when setting up your system:
1. CONNECTING THE LOUDSPEAKERS
Connect a two-pole (+/-) loudspeaker cable to the speaker
binding posts, located at rear of the base plate. The
Confidence’s high quality, gold plated WBT binding posts can
accommodate different connection systems:
4.0 mm banana plugs - The pins can be put directly into the
binding post without any screwing necessary.
Cable spades - Un-tighten the binding posts, insert the spade
into the opening, and secure the spade by tightening the
posts.
Bare wires - Un-tighten the binding posts and place the cable
into the binding posts. Tighten the posts.
With bare wire terminations, make sure that no thin metal
strand of wire is in contact with another strand of wire.
Tighten the posts, and check the contact after a few days to
make sure that it hasn’t loosened.
With every connection system, ensure that the contact is tight
and has a proper contact area. Connections with similar gold
plating as the Confidence binding posts will typically offer the
best results and remain corrosion-free.
2. CONNECTING THE AMPLIFIER
Connect the other cable ends to the loudspeaker outputs of
your switched-off amp. Please make sure that the red marked
post of the speaker are connected to the red marked output of
your amp, and the white or black marked post to the white or
black marked output accordingly.
Dynaudio loudspeakers feature a carefully fine-tuned
frequency crossover, using selected parts and an advanced
circuitry to achieve a truly balanced and smooth frequency
response. Therefore, dividing the frequency sections through
bi-wiring or bi-amping is neither beneficial nor optional.
