XLS-28, XLS-12, XLS-15, and XLS-215

1)Fuse Holder

2)Midrange and Tweeter Input 5-Way Binding Posts (Red=+, Black + -)

3)Jumper Straps

4)Woofer Input 5 Way-Binding Posts (Red=+, Black + -)

Normal wiring: In this method, one pair of speaker wire is used with one speaker and one amplifier channel. This method is used in the majority of applications.

Connection: Attach speaker wires to either the Midrange and Tweeter Input (2) or the Woofer Input (4) 5-way Binding Posts making sure to leave the Jumpers Straps (3) in place. Connect the other end of the speaker wires to your Receiver or Amplifiers speaker output terminals (see your Receiver or Amplifiers owners manuals for details on this connection). Make sure to observe correct polarity (Red = +, Black = -) when making these connections.

Bi-wiring:In this method, two pairs of speaker wire are used with one speaker and one amplifier channel.

Connection: Remove the Jumper Straps (3) and retain for possible future use. Attach one set of speaker wires to the Midrange and Tweeter Input (2) 5-way Binding Posts. Next connect a second set of speaker wires to the Woofer Input (4) 5-way Binding Posts. Connect the other ends of the speaker wires to your Receiver or Amplifiers speaker output terminals (see your Receiver or Amplifiers owners manual for details on this connection). Make sure to observe correct polarity (Red = +, Black = -) when making these connections.

Important: The XLS-6 and XLS-6C cannot be bi-wired.

Wiring note: We recommend that you discuss Normal, Bi-Wiring, or Bi-Amplifying options with your Authorized Cerwin-Vega! Dealer and for recommendation on appropiate wire.

XLS-6 and XLS-6C

1)Full range Binding Post

Wiring: One pair of speaker wire is used with one speaker and one amplifier channel.

Impedance:

All CV XLS home speakers are compatible with amplifier ratings from 4 to 8 ohms. If your amplifier is rated at 4 or 6 ohms, you can generally play the speaker as loud and as hard as you want and the energy transfer between the amplifier and your Cerwin-Vega! speaker will be optimal. If using an 8-ohm amplifier, you can play loud, but monitor your amplifier’s temperature if you start playing at extreme volume levels, as the speaker may want to suck more power from your amp than it can provide.

Fuse: Replace only with the correct type and voltage fuse. Failure to replace with the correct type and value can result in driver failure that is not covered under your warranty.
