Correct phasing of the speakers is vital for sound quality so check your amplifier manual for
instructions. Some vacuum tube amplifiers may require that you change the phase between amplifier
and the speakers by reversing the cable connections (e.g. Red amplifier terminal to White/Black
speaker terminal) on both speakers.
Very tight and positive connections are necessary but do not over-tighten the screws! Care should be
taken to ensure that the connections are neat, and there are no loose wires, which could cause a short
circuit and damage the amplifier.
Always turn off your amplifier before connecting any cables or altering any connections!
Installation of Lowther drivers (optional)
Your Magus speakers are usually shipped with Lowther drivers installed, and ready for use. In certain situations,
such as to avoid driver damage during the transport, the drivers may be shipped separately in their original
packaging. In this case you need to install the drivers – an easy and straightforward process. It will also give you
an opportunity to peek inside your speaker’s fine acoustic chamber.
Inside the baffle opening you will see two internal cables equipped with gold plated Red (+) and Black (-) O-
rings. After cables are properly attached to the driver, they can be put in place in two baffle holes on the left
side (see figure 2) and tightened with four screws (provided) using the supplied tool.
