BASIC CONNECTIONS and WIRING Always use stranded wire for three reasons: Power and audio signal cables are the most common sources of sound system failure. Well-made and carefully maintained cables are essential to the reliability of the entire system. If long speaker cables are required, make sure the wire is of sufficient size to transfer all of the available amplifier power to the speakers rather than absorbing power itself.
The SPL-6000 is timed to turn on the speaker outputs after the amplifier's power supply is fully charged up, thus preventing any turn-on noise. Timing of the amplifier's turn-on circuit is usually sufficient to accommodate all the turn-on anomalies from other pieces of gear in a system, making it acceptable to use a single switched power string in a permanent or semi-permanent system. CAUTION: NEVER use coiled cords for speaker hookup, even in an emergency.
