Interface Cables (CIC) and 6-foot (2m) Servo-Bass Interconnects (SBI). An alternative placement option is to have the Control module in the middle, flanked by the two Servo-feedback Amplifiers, with the Servo-feedback Amplifiers closer to the woofer towers and the Control module between the midrange/tweeter wings.

First, place the stack of modules between the midrange/tweeter wings with the Control Module on the top and the whole stack on an amplifier stand. Using the supplied CIC, link the Control Module to the Servo-feedback Amplifiers. One amplifier module is for the RIGHT woofer tower and the other will be for the LEFT. You can figure out which it is by the last letter of the serial number. It does not matter which CIC is used for right and which is used for left. However, one is marked with a red ring and the other is marked with a white ring for convenience.

Use the SBC to connect the woofer towers to the woofer amplifier. Each end of the cable is clearly marked,

AMPLIFIER or SPEAKER. It does not

matter which connector is attached to which as long as the correct amplifier module is used for the left and right towers. It does not matter which SBC is used for the left or the right; however, one is marked with AMPLIFIER or SPEAKER in red lettering, and the other in white lettering.

When you connect the woofer tower outputs pay close attention to the way the connector works. This connector is a 50 amp twist-lock Neutrik™ Speakon™. It only goes in one way and you cannot put it in wrong. However, you can fail to put it in all the way. Line up the alignment pins on the connectors, push the plug in, and twist it clockwise until the lock "clicks" in place to keep it there. By looking carefully, it will be obvious as to how it works.

At the AMPLIFIER end of the servo-bass cable, you will find a male 1/8” jack. The female end is on the chassis of the servo-bass amplifier labelled GND. These jacks are used for grounding an internal shield within the servo-bass cable. For the time being, leave this shield
