Important Information
1.Loudspeaker Cables of adequate size are important to ensure there will be no significant power loss or heating. Cable size is specified in Gauge numbers or AWG (American Wire Gauge). The smaller the Gauge number, the larger the wire size:
If the Loudspeaker Cables are 25 feet (7.62m) or less, use at least 18 Gauge (AWG) wire size or larger.
If the Loudspeaker Cables are 50 feet (38.1m) or less, use at least 14 Gauge (AWG) wire size or larger.
If the Loudspeaker Cables are 100 feet (76.2m) or less, use at least 12 Gauge (AWG) wire size or larger.
The Loudspeaker Connection Terminals can accept up to 12 Gauge (AWG) wire.
2.For additional connection information, refer to the owner’s manual(s) for any component(s) connected to the CS100 Loudspeaker System.
3.When the CS100 Loudspeaker System is driven by more than one amplifier, the output levels of the different am- plifiers connected to the Loudspeaker System must be adjusted to achieve a proper balance between the low and the midrange/high frequencies reproduced. This adjustment is best achieved through the use of audio test equipment operated by a qualified installer.
