MAKING CONNECTIONS

Speaker Connections

The speakers are connected to the CAV6.6 using modular snap speaker connectors. Each of these color coded connectors is designated for the speaker set of a particular amplified zone. To avoid confusion, connect one zone speaker set at a time starting with Zone 1, tak- ing care to keep zone and speaker wire identi- ties straight. Note: An 8 Ohm minimum speaker is required for each amplified output.

1. Pull the speaker wire conductors apart so they’re separated for the first two inches from their ends.

2. Using a wire stripper, remove 1/4 inch of insulation from each conductor. Twist the strands in each conductor into tight spirals.

3. Remove the modular four-color connector for Zone 1. The color code is as follows:

WHITE -- L+ (left channel positive) GREEN -- L- (left channel negative) BLACK -- R- (right channel negative) RED -- R+ (right channel positive)

Lift the black lever for each connection until it locks open and insert the proper speaker wire, matching channel and polarity for all four wires. Snap the lever down. Insert the modular connector into its designated output on the back of the CAV6.6.

4. Complete the same steps for the remaining zones. Label each set of speaker wires with the zone and location.
