Step 4: Completing the Electrical Connections

Trim the SJO cord to a neat length while allowing enough slack for future aiming adjustments or service. Make electrical connections per all applicable codes in a weather-tight box and secure the SJO cord through a weather-tight gland nut. Observe color code for proper polarity: Black wire from speaker is audio (-), white wire is audio (+).

Constant Voltage Design Considerations

One of the major expenses of any large sound system up-grade is the cost of running new wiring. For this reason, the Sx600PIX transformer has taps for use on lines as high as 200volts, which is easily delivered by an Electro-Voice CPS-4 amplifier in bridge mode. Keeping the current draw the same, changing from 70volts to 200volts means you can now pull approximately 3 times the wattage from the same wiring! In new installations, the higher voltages mean less line loss on long runs, less current and lighter gauge wire. Always check and comply with all applicable codes.
