A loop-through electrical connection is made on the crossover board of the

SF 26X. Connect the wires to the captive screw connectors of the speakers, as shown below. Be sure to tighten the screws.

NOTES:

Be sure that the combined impedance of the speaker system does not equal a value less than the rated minimum load impedance of the amplifier.

When a chain of speakers is wired in this configuration, disconnecting one speaker removes power from the remaining speaker in the chain.
