Alternative options (cont.): In some cases, you may find it easier to use one of the following
alternative wiring plans. The resulting sound will be the same.
Option 3: Connect
the speaker terminals
on the Micro80pv to
the terminals on the
Micro80x satellites.
Testing the Connections
A simple listening test will tell you if your Micro80x satellites are connected properly. Place the
satellites face to face, with about an inch (25mm) between them. While listening to music, reverse
the connections at one speaker only. You’ll hear a dramatic change in sound. The connection that
yields the fuller and louder sound is the correct one.
After checking the satellites, you can perform this same test with the subwoofer by reversing the
speaker wires at one of its two pairs of terminal connectors. If the bass output is reduced, then the
original connections were correct.
