invert the high-level inputs when the bass section of the G5 is driven by the preamplifier.

If you do this, use a good quality balanced interconnect cable to connect the balanced output of your preamplifier to the preamp level input XLR connector, or the single-ended output of your preamplifier to the preamp level input RCA connector on the back plate of the G5.

While using this connection, switch the Bass Input Selector to the down/line-level position. This will bypass the high-level input from the servo amp, and the bass input is taken directly from the low- level inputs.

Do NOT connect both the XLR and RCA inputs at the same time.

If you are planning to use long runs (over 10 feet or 3m) of interconnect to connect the line-level inputs of your G5 to your preamplifier, we recommend that you use a balanced connection.

The Acoustic Platform

The G5 sits on a suspension system designed to allow the loudspeaker to perform at its optimum. It consists of three elements – neoprene decouplers, a tuned skeletal frame, and stainless steel spikes. The system holds the loudspeaker firmly, and yet isolates it from the floor on which it sits.

At this point, use the plinth as it comes. Position the speakers, and then use your fingers to screw the spikes down to raise the speaker off the floor so that it only rests on the

spikes and no part of the frame touches the floor. Make sure the speaker is level, and then tighten the lock nuts under the frame to secure the spikes.

We will explore different options later when we fine-tune the system.
