is placed in or near a room’s corner. If using two subwoofers, start by placing them next to the front left and right speakers, in both front corners or one in the corner and one 1/3 of the way along the front wall from the corner. Each room is different. Experiment with these options or try other locations until you get the best results. If you must choose a less-than-ideal position, the output level of Phase Technology powered subwoofers is adjustable to compensate for your listening environment. Please refer to your subwoofer manual for more information.

SPEAKER CONNECTIONS

The following instructions apply whether you are using a separate amplifier or Home Theater receiver. For simplicity we will use the term “amplifier” throughout this manual to mean both.

Special note: Turn off and unplug your amplifier before connecting speakers.

Special Note: Observe Speaker Polarity Carefully!

Every cable, speaker and amplifier is clearly marked to show their positive (+) and negative (-) ter- minals. Amps and speakers may use some combination of these symbols and/or colors to indicate positive (usually red) and negative (usually black or white) connections. One strand of your cable will also be ridged and/or marked with a colored line or other indicator on the positive side. For proper polarity and, thus, ideal system performance, always connect the positive side of the cable to the positive terminals on your speakers and amplifier and the negative side of the cable to the negative terminals.

Front Speakers: The pair of front speaker connections (left and right) on your amplifier will be labeled “Front” or “Main.” Connect the speaker cables for your left and right front speakers using these terminals and then connect the cables to the front satellites. Observe positive and negative polarities.

V626 Bi-Wiring: The V626 speaker is equipped with bi-wiring, with four speaker terminals instead of two. This may enhance speaker performance by using an additional pair of speaker cables. In order to bi-wire this speaker, remove the gold-plated strips between the speaker terminals and connect two cables between your amplifier’s positive output terminal and the two positive (red) terminals on the speaker. Then connect the other two cables between the amp’s negative output terminal and the two negative (black) terminals on the speakers. If you choose not to bi-wire your speakers, do not remove the metal strips between the speaker terminals. Connect each cable in the standard manner, with one cable each between the positive and negative speaker terminals and your amplifier.

Center Speaker: The center speaker connections on your amplifier will be labeled “Center” or “Center Channel.” Connect the speaker cables for your center channel speaker using these terminals and then connect the cables to the center speaker. Observe positive and negative polarities.

Surround Speakers: The pair of surround connections (left and right) on your amplifier will be labeled “Surround.” Connect the speaker cables for your left and right surround speakers using these terminals and then connect the cables to surround satellite speakers. Observe positive and negative polarities.

Phase Velocity Surround speakers are marked with arrows indicating “left” or “right” to denote how the speaker should point into the listening area. Make sure you are connecting the proper speaker to the proper set of wires before mounting.

Rear Surround Speakers (used in 7.1 and 7.2 systems): The rear channels (left and right) on your amplifier will be labeled “Left / Right Rear Channels” or “Left / Right Back Surrounds”. Connect the speaker cables for your left and right rear speakers using these terminals and then connect the cables to the rear speakers. Observe positive and negative polarities.

Subwoofers: Phase Technology recommends the use of HV Series or Power FL subwoofers with the Phase Velocity system, however, any subwoofer will work. Please consult your subwoofer’s installation manual for connection instructions.
