HOOKUP

The MG1.6 features unique, high current connectors which provide optimum contact area with
speaker cables up to 10 gauge.

The MG1.6 is shipped ready for conventional or bi-wire hookup.

A.

CONVENTIONAL HOOKUP
Simply strip 1/2" of insulation from the end of the cable. Insert the cable into the
top set of connectors and tighten the set screws with the Alien wrench provided.
Banana plug connectors can be used and locked in place with the set screws.
Spade lug adapters are available from your Magneplanar dealer for speaker
cables that are incompatible with the Magneplanar high current connector.
To ensure proper phasing of the speakers, make sure the plus (red) is to plus
and minus (black) is to minus.

These speakers are designed for utilizing bi-wire hookup techniques. The
connection plate on the rear of each speaker is shown in Figure 2.
