CONNECTIONS TO YOUR AMPLIFIER
Amplifier
Soavo-1 (L)
This speaker system is capable of standard connections and bi-wired connections. Before making
connections, make sure that the amplifier is switched off.
■CONNECTIONS
• Connect the screw-type terminals at the rear of the
speakers to the speaker terminals of the amplifier with
the speaker cable (sold separately).
• Connect the (+) terminals on the amplifier and the
speakers using one side of the cable. Connect the (–)
terminals on both components using the other side of the
cable.
• Connect one speaker to the left (L) terminals of your
amplifier, and another speaker to the right (R) terminals,
making sure not to reverse the polarity (+, –). If one
speaker is connected with reversed polarity, the sound
will be unnatural and lack bass.
How to connect the cables:
1
Loosen the knob.
2 Remove the insulation coating at the extremity of each
speaker cable by twisting the coating off.
3 Insert the bare wire into the hole.
4 Tighten the knob and secure the cables.
Test the firmness of the connection by pulling lightly on
the cables at the terminal.
Notes
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other as
this could damage the speaker or the amplifier, or
both of them.
• Do not insert the insulation coating into the hole.
The sound may not be produced.
