14 PLINIUS HAUTONGA
LOUDSPEAKER OUTPUTS
The connection of your loudspeakers to the output posts of the Hautonga Integrated
Amplifier must be made by an ‘instructed person’ with suitable ready made
loudspeaker cables only. Connect your left loudspeaker (ie. the one on your left
when seated in your normal listening position) to the left output terminals. Ensure
the terminals on the amplifier are connected to the loudspeaker terminals Red
positive (+) to Red positive (+) and Black negative (–) to Black negative (–). Repeat
this process for the right outputs.
TERMINATION QUALITY
Quality of the connections must be examined to ensure that high-performance,
trouble-free operation is enjoyed. Check that the connections are tight but do not
over tighten. If bare wires are used make sure that no loose strands of wire short
across the other terminals or the amplifier chassis. When using plugs such as
bananas, be sure to use good quality plugs with a firm fit.
BI-WIRING
Bi-wiring uses two pairs of loudspeaker cables for each channel loudspeaker. You
will notice that the rear panel of your Hautonga Integrated Amplifier has two pairs
of output terminals for this purpose. When bi-wiring, always connect the terminals
positive (+) to positive (+) and negative (–) to negative (–). Be sure to remove any
jumpers that may be fitted to your loudspeakers.
PHASING (OR POLARITY)
It is important to achieve good stereo imaging in your listening room. By observing
the wiring instructions above, each power amplifier/loudspeaker combination should
be in phase. If you experience poor stereo image and/or a lack of bass, check that
the loudspeaker wiring has been connected correctly. If in doubt, consult your Plinius
dealer for advice.
Naturally it is also important to make sure all the leads carrying signals for the RIGHT channel
loudspeaker are connected to the RIGHT input to the amplifier from your preamplifier or
CD player etc. Signals for the LEFT channel should be wired in a similar fashion.
