2.5 Choose Output Wire and Connectors

Crown recommends using pre-built or professionally wired, high-quality, two-conductor, heavy gauge speaker wire and connectors. You can use spade lugs or bare wire for your output connectors (Figure 2.4). To prevent the possibility of short-circuits, wrap or otherwise insulate exposed loudspeaker cable connectors.

Using the guidelines below, select the appropriate size of wire based on the distance from amplifier to speaker.

CAUTION: Never use shielded cable for output wiring.

2.5Choisissez le câble et les connect- eurs de sortie

Crown recommande des conducteurs et câbles d’enceinte de bon calibre préfabriqués ou câblés professionnellement, de haute qualité à deux conducteurs. Vous pouvez utiliser un connecteur des cosses à fourche ou un câble nu pour vos connecteurs de sortie (Figure 2.4). Pour prévenir le risque de court- circuit, emballez ou isolez les connecteurs de câble d’enceinte exposés.

A l’aide des références ci-dessous, sélectionnez la taille de câble enfonction de la distance séparant l’amplifica- teur de l’enceinte.

2.5Wahl der Ausgangskabel und Anschlüsse

Crown empfiehlt vorgefertige oder professionell verdrahtete und qualitativ hochwertige Zweileiter- Lautsprecherkabel und Anschlüsse mit großem Leiterdurchschnitt. Sie können sowohl Spade-Lug- Anschlüsse als auch Blankdraht für die Ausgänge verwenden (Abbildung 2.4). Um Kurzschlüsse zu verhindern, umwickeln Sie offenliegende Lautsprecherkabelanschlüsse, bzw. verwenden Sie eine geeignete Isolierung.

Wählen Sie die korrekte Leiterstärke entsprechend der Distanz zwischen Endstufe und Lautsprecher:

VORSICHT: Verwenden Sie nie abgeschirmte Kabel zum Lautsprecheranschluß.

2.5Seleccione el cableado y conectores de salida

Crown recomienda el uso de conectores y cables de alta calidad para altoparlantes, de dos conductores, de calibre grueso, ya sean prefabricados o construidos profesionalmente. Usted puede usar conectores zapatas o cable desnudo para la conexión de salida (Figura 2.4). Para prevenir la posibilidad de corto circuito, cubra ó de otra forma, aísle los conectores expuestos del cable para altoparlante.

Usando las referencias siguientes, seleccione el calibre apropiado del cable basado en la distancia del amplificador al altoparlante.
