Making Connections
(continued)
• Vertical bi-amplified connections must
be made with identical power
amplifiers. Horizontal bi-amplified
connections can be made with identical
or non-identical power amplifiers with
identical “gain factors.”
• When making bi-amplified connections,
both power amplifiers must receive
identical input signals from the
associated pre-amplifier. A “Y” adaptor
is required if the associated pre-amplifier
does not offer two connectors per output
channel.
• If desired, contact an authorized Revel
dealer for information about the
suitability of power amplifier
components before connecting the C32
to the associated power amplifier.
• Review the owner’s manuals for
associated audio components to
determine their connection procedures.
SINGLE-WIRED CONNECTIONS
Single-wired connections are made
between one pair of C32 input connectors
and one power amplifier output channel
as shown in Figure 10 (right).
To make single-wired connections:
• Connect one pair of loudspeaker wires
to the desired C32 input connectors.
Then, connect the same pair of
loudspeaker wires to the desired power
amplifier output channel.
BI-WIRED CONNECTIONS
Bi-wired connections are made between
both pairs of C32 input connectors and
one power amplifier output channel as
shown in Figure 11 at the top of the next
page.
To make bi-wired connections:
1. Remove the input panel shorting-straps
identified in Figure 4 (page 9).
2. Connect one pair of loudspeaker wires
to the C32 input connectors labeled
High Frequency. Then, connect the
same pair of loudspeaker wires to the
desired power amplifier output channel.
