CONNECTION OF THE LOUDSPEAKERS

Either a single speaker pair (A) or two speaker pairs (A+B) can be connected to the amplifier SV-400.

Both outputs are identically provided with the stereo signal of the currently selected input source. For each

loudspeaker you will find two connector screws (positive + und negative –) at the amplifier's backside.

One side of the speaker cable must be attached here. Each pair of screws has a label “R” or “L” nearby

to clarify to which stereo channel it belongs. At the loudspeaker connection terminal there are similar con-

nector screws or connectors. There, the polarity of each screw (+ or –) can be identified as well and the

other side of the speaker cable associated with this speaker must be attached. Make sure only connector

screws of the same polarity will be connected by each speaker cable wire: a knob marked “+” in the

amplifier's terminal must be connected with a speaker's connector screw marked “+” as well.

Our sketch shows all connections necessary for one pair of speakers. If a second pair of loudspeakers is

intended to be used, the connector screws of the lower row (Speakers B) must be connected in a similar

fashion to the additional speakers’ input connectors. However, this is only permitted if both loudspeakers

have a nominal impedance of at least 8

If every speaker is connected in a conventional way (a two core speaker cable for each loudspeaker) and

you own loudspeakers that are equipped with Bi-Wiring terminals (four connector screws) you have to make

sure that the metal brackets (contact pieces consisting of small metal plates or short pieces of cable which

are supplied with the speakers) are applied to the terminal and that each one connects the two knobs of the

same polarity (e.g. both connectors marked “+”). The connector screw labelled “+” and “R” at the ampli-

fier's backside must be connected to one of the bridged, labelled “+” connectors of the loudspeaker assi-

gned to the right stereo channel. Accordingly, the connector screw labelled “–” and “R” at the amplifier's

backside must be connected to one of the bridged, labelled “–” connectors of the loudspeaker assigned to

the right stereo channel. Connect the left side loudspeaker in the corresponding way.

Loudspeaker cable

If you are using ready made loudspeaker

cables with 4 mm banana plugs, all you need

to do is connect the two plugs on each loud-

speaker cable end to the two associated spea-

ker connectors. At first installation after unpak-

king the amplifier it is necessary to remove the

small plastic security plugs from the speaker connector holes (completely

remove the connector screw, remove the plug and refit the screw again).

Turn all connector screws clockwise to fasten them.
