The McIntosh XRT28 Loudspeaker System utilizes bind-
ing posts for speaker wire connections. Prepare the Loud-
speaker Hookup Cables that attach to the Power Amplifier
Output Terminals:
Bare wire cable ends:
Carefully remove sufficient insulation from the cable
ends, refer to figures 19, 20 & 21. If the cable is
stranded, carefully twist the strands together as tightly
as possible.
Note: If desired,
the twisted
ends can be
tinned with
solder to
keep the
strands together and/or attach a spade lug.
Spade lug or prepared wire connection:
Insert the spade lug connector or prepared section of
the cable end into the terminal side access hole, and
tighten the terminal cap until the cable is firmly
clamped
into the
terminal
so the
wires
cannot
slip out. Refer to figures 22, 23 & 24.
