CABLES AND AMPLIFICATION

Use the best quality speaker cables you have available. The length and type of speaker cable used in your system can have an audible effect and allow you to maximize the transmission of power from your amplifier to the speakers.

We recommend, if possible, that short runs of speaker cable connect the power amplifier(s) and speakers and that high-quality long interconnect cables be used to connect the preamplifier and power amplifier. This results in the power amplifiers being close to the speakers, which may be practically or cosmetically difficult. However, if the length of the speaker cables can be reduced to a few meters, sonic advantages may be obtained.

WARNING! Turn your amplifier off before making or breaking any signal connections!

Remove the plastic red or black insert. The plastic insert is a mandatory security measure, as dictated by many local and federal government associations.

To Connect your speaker system: Start at one speaker, and connect one channel at a time, starting with the front speakers. Always ensure that the entire A/V system is powered OFF before performing any connections. The positive and negative (red and black) sides of the speaker terminals MUST match the positive and negative (red and black) terminals of the receiver or amplifier. If they do not match, abnormal sound and a lack of bass response will result. After connecting the front speakers, connect the rest of the speakers to their appropriate channels of the receiver or amplifier. The three connection methods and their explanations include:

CONNECTING YOUR SPEAKERS TO YOUR SYSTEM

All of the models in the OM Design Series feature high quality gold plated binding post connectors. The OMD-R uses a slightly different design of binding post connectors then the other models in this series, allowing the speaker to be mounted flush to the wall. The functionality of all connectors is the same, and as such the following description can be applied to all models.

The OM Design series will accept a variety of connector types including spade lugs, banana plugs, or pin type connectors. The best connector in our opinion is the "Spade lug" as it provides more contact area with the terminal and allows the binding post to be tightened for a secure connection. Audiophiles and novices alike have preferences as to which connector type they favor, speak with your Authorized Mirage retailer as to which is the best for your Audio Video System. Rest assured, plain speaker wire is more than acceptable, you can always upgrade your wires and/or connectors later on.
