2.4Choose Input Wire and Connectors

Crown recommends using pre-built or professionally wired balanced line (two-conductor plus shield), 22-24 gauge cables and connectors. At the amplifier inputs, use Phoenix-style connectors (see Figure 2.3).

Unbalanced lines may be used, but may result in hum or RF noise over long cable runs.

NOTE: Custom wiring should only be performed by qualified personnel.

2.4Choisissez le câble et les connecteurs d’entrée

Crown recommande l’emploi de connecteurs et câbles de section 0,2 à 0,35 mm² préfabriqués ou professionnellement câblés pour une ligne symétrique (deux conducteurs + blindage). Vous devez utiliser des connecteurs de type Phoenix (cf. Figure 2.3) pour le câble entrant de l’amplifica- teur.

Vous pouvez utiliser des lignes asymétriques, mais elles peuvent entraîner des bourdonnements ou du bruit HF lorsque les câbles sont longs.

NOTE: Un câblage personnel ne doit être accompli que par un personnel qualifié.

2.4 Eingangsverbindungen

Crown empfiehlt vorgefertigte oder professionell verdrahtete symmetrische Leitungen (zwei Leiter 22-24 plus Abschirmung) und Anschlüsse. Verwenden Sie Phönix-Anschlüsse für die Verstärkereingänge (siehe Abbildung 2.3).

Nicht-symmetrische Leitungen können verwendet werden, führen aber möglicherweise zu Brummen oder RF- Rauschen bei langen Kabellängen.

ACHTUNG: Verwenden Sie nur hochwertige, professionell verdrahtete Kabel.

2.4Seleccione el cableado y conectores de entrada

Crown recomienda el uso de líneas balanceadas (dos conductores más blindaje) prefabricadas o profesionalmente construidas con conectores y cables calibre 22 a 24. En las entradas del amplificador, use conectores estilo Phoenix (ver Figura 2.3).

También pueden usarse líneas desbalanceadas, pero podrían generar zumbido o ruido RF en tramos largos de cable.

NOTA: El cableado especial deberá ser realizado solamente por personal calificado.
