Speaker Connections

(BASIC/ADVANCED/EXPANDED)

SPEAKER PHASING: TO OBTAIN STABLE IMAGING AND FULL BASS RESPONSE, IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT STEREO SPEAKERS BE CONNECTED "IN PHASE" WITH EACH OTHER. YOU CAN VERIFY THIS AS FOLLOWS:

1.If the "+" (positive) and "–" (negative) terminals on your speakers are correctly marked, and visible, and you have wired the system with the positive speaker connector on the rear of the MRC44 Controller/Amplifier connected to the positive connector on the speaker and the negative speaker connector on the rear of the MRC44 Controller/Amplifier connected to the negative connector on the speaker, then the system will be "in phase". No further action is required. Most manufacturers identify the positive terminal with a red binding post, a "+" sign, or a red dot.

2.If you are unsure of the markings, you can verify the phasing. Using a mono sound source, such as AM radio, alternately reverse the leads to one of the speakers. Pick the connection that delivers a solid center image between the speakers as well as best bass response.

CAUTION: After lead ends are inserted and the screws tightened down, be sure there are no free strands that could cause shorting!

Video connections

(BASIC/ADVANCED/EXPANDED) Composite Video

The buffered, composite video output from the MRC44 Controller/Amplifier will drive a VIDEO INPUT on a TV or monitor directly. Use RG-6 coaxial or RG-59 quadshield cable with RCA type phono plugs on each end. This connection can be run for 100 feet.

Modulated Video

When using the RF/ANT input on a television, use RG-6 coaxial or RG-59 quadshield cable with "F" connectors on each end to connect to the RF output on the Modulator to the RF/ANT in on the zone TV.
