American Acoustic Development C Series-3G manual Connections Two Channel Stereo Application

Page 6

Depending on the shape of your room (etc.), you may wish to place the rear speakers behind you instead of on the side walls. In this case, you can use a pair of large floor standing speakers matching your front speakers.

Connections

Note: Make sure your amplifier is off and disconnected from power while you are connecting speakers to amplifier. Turn your amplifier on only after you check and make sure speakers are properly connected.

Two Channel Stereo Application

Connections are made at the terminals located on the back of the loudspeaker system. The terminals accept spade plugs, bare wire or banana plugs. For best results, use high quality speaker cables.

All C Series-3G loudspeakers have 4 gold plated binding post for single or bi-wring options.

Single Wiring

This method uses only one pair of cables to connect each speaker to the amplifier. (see Fig. 1).

For each channel, the red terminal on the loudspeaker should be connected to the red

or (+) loudspeaker connection terminal on the receiver or amplifier. The black terminal on the loudspeaker should be connected to the black or (-) loudspeaker

connection terminal on the receiver or amplifier. Connecting the loudspeakers in this manner ensures that they will be in phase; that is work together rather than in opposition. Connecting the loudspeakers out of phase will not damage them, but will result in less bass and poor imaging.
