When you connect the woofer tower outputs pay close attention to
the way the connector works. It only goes in one way and you
cannot put it in wrong. However, you can fail to put it in all the way
or fail to lock it in place. Line up the alignment pins on the
connectors, push the plug in, and twist it clockwise until the lock
"clicks" in place to keep it there. By looking carefully, it will be
obvious as to how it works.
At the
AMPLIFIER
end of the servo-bass cable, you will find a male 1/8”
jack. The female end is on the chassis of the servo-bass amplifier
labelled GND. These jacks are used for grounding an internal shield
within the servo-bass cable. For the time being, leave this shield
disconnected. The shield ground should be used only when
necessary.
Midrange/Tweeter Connections
Next, connect the mid/tweeter
panels to your power amplifier
using a pair of high quality
loudspeaker cables (not
supplied) to the 5-way binding
posts. We recommend using
good quality spade
connectors for this job.
There are two ways to get the
music signal from your hifi
system to the Servo-Controlled Bass Amplifier to drive the woofers.
The first, and preferred way is to drive it using the output of the
power amplifier that is driving the midrange/ tweeter panels using
the supplied pair of Servo-Bass Interconnects.
The Servo-Bass Interconnect will be supplied with a pair of banana
plugs at one end, and an XLR balanced male plug at the other end.
The banana plugs will plug straight into the binding posts of the G2
midrange/tweeter tower inputs when you are using speaker cables
with spade connectors. If your speaker cables use banana plugs,
you can order spade connectors with the SBI at no extra charge
when you order your loudspeakers.
The XLR connector contains a specially developed internal
