3. Locate the two threaded inserts on the
bottom of the cabinet. These inserts are
identified on the left side of Figure 9 at
the bottom of the previous page.
4. Rotate the first spike clockwise, spike
end first, to attach it to the threaded
insert.
5. Repeat step 4 using the other spike and
threaded insert. Make sure the two
spikes are evenly threaded to achieve a
level balance.
6. Place the protective caps over the
round end of the spikes as shown on
the right side of FIgure 9 at the bottom
of the previous page to prevent the
spikes from scratching the mounting
surface.
7. When both spikes have been inserted,
stand the C32 in the upright position.
If needed, adjust the spikes to achieve
a level balance.
MAKING CONNECTIONS
The C32 features gold-plated binding posts
and shorting-straps that allow it to be
configured for single-wired, bi-wired, or
bi-amplified connections.
CAUTION
• Never make or break connections
unless all system components are
powered off.
• Remove the input panel shorting-straps
identified in Figure 4 (page 9) before
making bi-wired or bi-amplified
connections. Failure to do so may cause
damage to some power amplifiers.
Before making connections, note the
following:
• Use high-quality loudspeaker cable
with a maximum total loop resistance
of 0.07
Ω or less (for each wire run).
Refer to the table below to determine
the appropriate maximum wire gauge.
Maximum Wire Gauge
Gauge Length Length
(AWG) (Feet) (Meters)
6 87 27
7 69 21
8 58 18
9 43 13
10 34 10
11 27 8
12 22 7
13 17 5
14 14 4
15 11 3
16 9 3
17 7 2
18 5 2
Note
High loop resistances that exceed 0.07
Ω
(for each wire run) will cause the filter
network to mis-terminate, resulting in
considerable degradation of sound quality.
• Make all connections observing the
proper polarity, positive-to-positive (+)
and negative-to-negative (–).
