Infinity C205 Speaker User Manual


 
Figure 5.This example shows how to connect bare wires to the terminals.
Figure 6.Wiring diagram shows polarity connections for one
channel of a stereo or home theater system.
WIRING THE SYSTEM
IMPORTANT: Make sure all equipment is turned off before making any
connections.
For speaker connections, use a minimum #16-gauge speaker wire with
polarity coding.The side of the wire with a ridge or other coding is
usually considered positive polarity (i.e.,+).
NOTE: If desired,consult your local Infinity dealer about speaker wire and
connection options.
The speakers have coded terminals that accept a variety of wire connec-
tors.The most common connection is shown in Figure 5.
To ensure proper polarity,connect each + terminal on the back of the
amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on each speaker,
as shown in Figure 6. Connect the
(black) terminals in a similar way.
See the owner’s guides that were included with your amplifier,receiver
and television to confirm connection procedures.
IMPORTANT: Do not reverse polarities (i.e.,+ to
,or
to +) when
making connections.Doing so will cause poor imaging and diminished
bass response.
BI-WIRING
C336
The outer connection panel and internal dividing network of the C336 is
designed so that separate sets of speaker cables can be attached to the low-
frequency transducer and midrange/high-frequency transducer portions of this
dividing network.This is called bi-wiring.Bi-wiring can provide several sonic
advantages and considerably more flexibility in power amplifier selection.
