Once the bottom tray is removed, place the SR-2 speaker cabinet
upright in the intended location. Place all packing into the now
empty boxes and save for later use.
The SR-2 speaker cabinets each have bi-wire input connectors and
it is strongly suggested that the customer bi-wire or bi-amp the
speakers with wire of their choice.
Speaker wire is a very personal preference; please discuss cable
options with your dealer if you do not already own cables that you
favor. Pass Laboratories has included a set of jumper cables to
allow temporary operation of the speakers with a single run of
speaker cable; we strongly suggest dual runs of cable.
During extended listening sessions with the SR-2 product, most
listeners sonically favor bi-wiring or bi-amping. For those so inclined
you are also free to actively bi-amp with an electronic crossover.
Active bi-amping through an electronic crossover such as the Pass
Laboratories XVR1 allows ample freedom to select separate
amplifiers of disparate gain for woofer and mid-range / tweeter. If
you intend to use the electronic crossover option, please contact
the factory for suggested crossover settings.
If you are using the preferred method of bi-wiring with two pairs of
speaker cables from the power amplifier, then you must remove the
supplied jumper wire. Failure to remove the jumper wire when bi-
wiring or bi-amping places your amplifiers at risk.
Please keep in mind that the speaker cabinets are polarity
