Page 9
The
4344MkII
loudspeakers can be connected by one of several meth-
ods. The binding posts on the rear panel of the
4344MkII
will accept
most types of audio cable and connectors, including banana plugs and
bare wire (Figure 3). Follow the hookup method that best describes your
system.
1. For each channel, connect the red (+) terminal on the
4344MkII
to the red (+) terminal on your amplifier.
2. For each channel, connect the black (–) terminal on the
4344MkII
to the black (–) terminal on the amplifier.
Connecting the systems in this manner ensures that they will operate in
phase; that is, they will work together rather than in opposition.
Connecting the speaker system out of phase will not cause damage but
will adversely affect the speaker’s sound.
