Wiring
In normal wiring, the bridging clips
(item 3, on page 6) are left in place, so
the ribbon and the woofers are powered
by the same amplier channel.
The front channels of Sunre's Theater
Grand Ampliers each have two pairs
of outputs. In a normal system, use the
voltage source. See page 16 for other
wiring options, including biamping, or
biwiring.
This example shows the speaker wiring
connections for a right front speaker. On
conventional ampliers, use the standard
positive and negative speaker-level
outputs.
1. Install the speaker wires following
all local codes for electrical wiring
installation. Use class 2 wiring,
and 12 gauge is recommended, 16
gauge is the minimum.
2. Follow common low voltage
practices like avoiding high voltage
electrical wiring, or crossing them
perpendicularly. This will reduce the
chance of picking up hum or other
interference.
3. Pass the wiring through the wiring
channels in the back of the loud-
speaker (see item 4 on page 6.)
4. Do an electrical continuity test to
make sure the connections are
good from the amplier-end of the
speaker wire to the ends of the
wires at the loudspeaker.
5. Secure the wiring to the loudspeak
-
er's spring-loaded binding posts,
observing the correct polarity.
Gently pull on them to make sure
they are secure.
6. It is a good idea to secure the wir-
ing from vibration as much as pos-
sible. Do not have the weight of the
cables hanging on the terminals.
