Carefully remove any overall sheath or split the figure 8 cable to a depth of about 75mm (3”). Carefully strip the insulation on each wire to a depth of about 12mm (1/2”) exposing the

bare core. If the conductor is stranded, twist the strands together on each conductor. Unscrew the binding post. There is a cross-hole about 5mm from the panel end of the binding post. Insert the bared conductor through the hole and tighten the binding post securely making sure that there are no loose strands or bare ends protruding through the post. Carefully observe polarity ensuring that the RED (+) speaker terminal is connected to the RED (+) amplifier terminal and the BLACK (-) speaker terminal to the BLACK (-) amplifier terminal. When all the channels are connected to their respective speakers the amplifier is ready

for use.

IMPORTANT NOTE: For optimum performance it is recommended to use high quality cables such as ROKSAN HDC-02SHigh Definition Loudspeaker Cable. Many speaker cables such as the ROKSAN HDC-02S are directional. Please observe this directionality. DO NOT use a speaker cable with conductor size less than 16 AWG (1.6mm Diameter). The Binding posts accept conductor sizes up to 12 AWG.

Multi-Amping The Loudspeakers

Set-up

If the Loudspeakers utilise more than one drive unit with individual input terminals, for example a Tweeter and a Woofer, then the loudspeaker performance will greatly benefit from Bi-Amping. Dedicating one amplifier to the Tweeter and another to the Woofer isolates them from each other hence reducing distortion and increasing reserved power. Speakers work far better with most amplifiers when Multi-Amped than using one yet more powerful amplifier.

NOTE:

Kandy Integrated Amplifier MkI & MkII do not have pre out sockets for multi-amping.

If the loudspeakers have more drive units you just add more 2- channel amplifiers and connect respectively.

L III specifications

The Roksan Audio L III is a high-fidelity loudspeaker designed to deliver exceptional sound quality, combining advanced engineering with elegant aesthetics. This speaker is a testament to Roksan's commitment to producing audio equipment that meets the needs of discerning audiophiles.

One of the main features of the L III is its sophisticated two-way design. It incorporates a 5-inch mid/bass driver and a 1-inch tweeter, which work together to create a balanced sound profile. The mid/bass driver is engineered using a lightweight, stiff cone material that enhances transient response and provides deep bass reproduction. The tweeter features a fine silk dome, ensuring smooth high-frequency response and remarkable detail without harshness.

The Roksan L III is built with a focus on acoustic efficiency. Its cabinet is meticulously constructed to minimize resonances, allowing for a more accurate soundstage. The internal bracing is strategically placed to provide additional support, reducing unwanted vibrations that can color the sound. The design of the cabinet also aids in controlling the bass response, resulting in a clean and articulate low-end.

Another hallmark of the L III is its versatile connectivity options, allowing it to integrate seamlessly into a variety of audio systems. The speakers can easily handle a wide range of amplifier powers, making them suitable for both small setups and more powerful systems. The impedance rating ensures compatibility with most amplifiers, providing users with greater flexibility in matching with their existing gear.

The speaker's aesthetic design is not to be overlooked. With a sleek and modern finish, the Roksan L III is available in various color options, allowing it to complement any home décor. The front grille can be easily removed, showcasing the beautiful driver design and adding to the speaker's visual appeal.

Roksan has also implemented advanced technologies in the L III to optimize performance. The speaker benefits from a proprietary crossover network that employs high-quality components, ensuring accurate frequency division and phase coherence. This results in a more natural sound representation, allowing listeners to experience their favorite music as intended by the artist.

In summary, the Roksan Audio L III is a remarkable loudspeaker that combines advanced technology, elegant design, and outstanding performance. With its carefully crafted drivers, robust construction, and versatile connectivity, it stands as a prime choice for those seeking a premium audio experience.
