invert the high-level inputs when the bass section of the G5 is
driven by the preamplifier.
If you do this, use a good quality balanced interconnect cable to
connect the balanced output of your preamplifier to the preamp
level input XLR connector, or the single-ended output of your
preamplifier to the preamp level input RCA connector on the back
plate of the G5.
While using this connection, switch the Bass Input Selector to the
down/line-level position. This will bypass the high-level input from
the servo amp, and the bass input is taken directly from the low-
level inputs.
Do NOT connect both the XLR and RCA inputs at the same time.
If you are planning to use long runs (over 10 feet or 3m) of
interconnect to connect the line-level inputs of your G5 to your
preamplifier, we recommend that you use a balanced connection.
The Acoustic Platform
The G5 sits on a suspension
system designed to allow the
loudspeaker to perform at its
optimum. It consists of three
elements – neoprene decouplers, a
tuned skeletal frame, and stainless
steel spikes. The system holds the
loudspeaker firmly, and yet isolates
it from the floor on which it sits.
At this point, use the plinth as it
comes. Position the speakers, and
then use your fingers to screw the
spikes down to raise the speaker off
the floor so that it only rests on the
spikes and no part of the frame touches the floor. Make sure the
speaker is level, and then tighten the lock nuts under the frame to
secure the spikes.
We will explore different options later when we fine-tune the system.
