Wire
the
Subwoofer
We
recommend
using
insulated
twisted
pair
stranded
copper
wire
of
an
adequate
gauge
to
minimize
resistive
losses.
To
facilitate
connection,
the
AD-P.SUB
loudspeakers
have
a
four-pole
connector
for
the
input
and
two
more
for
the
high-pass
outputs
to
as
many
as
four
16Q
satellite
loudspeakers
(Figure
5).
Each
subwoofer
comes
with
three
Euro-style
four-
pole
pluggable
connectors
with
clamping
screws
for
securing
to
the
wire
conductors.
1.
Remove
the
magnetic
grille
and
set
the
transformer
tap
switch
to
the
desired
power
(in
watts)
or
to
4Q
for
low-impedance
operation
(Figure

Reattach
the
grille.
This
setting
can
always
be
readjusted
in

.
2.
On
the top
of
the
enclosure,
remove
the
two
protective

one
gland
(protective
cable
pass-through)
and
the
larger
one
has
two.
3.
Route
the
wires
coming
from
the
amplifier
through
the
gland
in
the

.
Route
the
wires
for
the
satellte
loudspeakers
through
one
or
both
glands
on
the
larger
cover.

Strip
the
wire
ends
about
6
mm
or
about
1/4
inch.
5.
Connect
the
pairs
of
wires
to
the
+
and
-
terminals
of
the
Euro-style
connectors
as
shown
in
Figure
7.
Tighten
the
clamping
screws
to
hold
the
wires
securely
.
To
daisy-chain
forward
to
another
loudspeaker,
route
a
second
wire
pair
through
the
gland
and
attach
them
to
the
THRU
terminals
of
the
input
Euro-style
connector.
Be
mindful
of
polarity
when
connecting
multiple
loudspeakers;
always
connect
+
to
+
and
- to-.
6.
Plug
the
connectors
into
their
respective
locations
and

their
retaining
screws
.
Reinstall
the
protective
covers
and
tighten
the
gland
nuts
to
secure
the
wires.
