with common metric hardware on the underside of the upper
cabinet. The hardware and required tools are supplied with each
cabinet. Please retain the packing materials and supplied tools.
Customer will need to install the “Tilt Bar” and the “Nameplate”
and 3 feet. Like the larger bottom cabinet the feet on the upper
cabinet have “no-mar” washers between the aluminum hardware and
the cabinet finish. To preserve the wood finish on the cabinet, please
install these washers. Once this hardware has been installed you
may invert the smaller box, such that the top cabinet is now setting
upright on a secure surface. Once upright, lift and remove the outer
and inner box, foam top tray and foam sock. You may now place the
top cabinet upon the bass cabinet.
When stacking the small cabinet atop the large cabinet it is suggested
that this be done with the assistance of a second person. One
person should lift the upper cabinet and a second person should
direct and guide the upper cabinet so that the feet of the small
upper cabinet fit directly into the sockets on top of the large cabinet
without damaging the finish on any of the pieces.
The Upper and Lower speaker cabinet each have input connectors
and it is strongly suggested that the customer bi-wire the speakers
with wire of their choice. Speaker wire is a very personal choice,
please discuss cable options with your dealer if you do not already
own cables that you favor. Pass Laboratories has included a set of
jumper cables to allow temporary operation of the speakers with a
single run of speaker cable. Extended listening sessions with SR-1
favor bi-wiring or bi-amping. For those so inclined you are also free
to bi-amp with dedicated amplifiers allowing the freedom to select
separate amplifiers for woofer and tweeter.
On the large, lower cabinets the two pairs of speaker binding posts
are in parallel with one another. When wiring with a single pair of
speaker cables the lower pair are intended for the run back to the
power-amplifier and the upper pair are intended for the jumpers that
will connect the power amplifier supplying the lower cabinet to the
input connectors of the upper cabinet.
