SV SoundChapter 6-2 Wiring

Connections, phase, wire and more

Regardless of the sort of wire you use, keep a consistent approach to your wiring so you do not

inadvertently mismatch your Plus (+) or Negative (-) terminals on any speaker and its run to the r e c e i v e r ’ s s p e a k e r outputs.

After tightening down your speaker terminals it’s important to periodically check on them. If you are using bare, stripped wire you may notice it will tend to flatten over time. Loose connections at your speaker binding posts can be a result.

Again look at the diagram on the printed Quick Start sheet to get an idea of how you should configure wiring with a typical AVR and a basic surround-sound system.

Your speaker is ―bi-wire‖ and ―bi-amp‖ capable with gold-plated bars installed as a default for use with most consumer audio systems. Bi- wiring your speakers (and removing the bars connecting the two sets of binding posts) is unlikely to produce an improvement in sound quality, but this configuration is often the choice of discerning audiophiles. While not necessary for excellent sound, bi-amping your speakers may result in better performance, with improved headroom and dynamic range.

The upper terminal set is for the tweeter, and the lower terminal set is for the mid-bass driver(s). Be sure to maintain correct wiring polarity (+ to +, - to -) for all connections.
