The	second	example	shows	the	wires	to	the	second	speaker	and	all	the	following	speakers	connected	to	the	
“loop”	terminals.	The	“loop”	terminals	are	connected	to	the	regular	“+”	and	“–”	terminals	inside	the	speaker.	
This	makes	connecting	the	wires	to	the	terminals	easier.	But	it	also	means	that	if	the	one	speaker	is	unplugged	
for	any	reason	the	signal	to	the	following	speakers	is	cut	off.	
Parallel	connections	can	also	be	made	by	connecting	wires	from	all	the	speakers	directly	to	the	amplifier	ter-
minals,	typically	referred	to	as	“home	run”	connections.	This	typically	results	in	more	wire	being	used	–	usually	
something	you	want	to	avoid.
The	information	above	only	applies	to	70V	systems.	If	you	use	the	Dir	X	setting	of	the	switch	on	the	front,	bypass-
ing	the	transformer,	connect	the	speakers	as	you	would	any	conventional	low	impedance	speakers.			
Installing the Speakers
Once	the	installation	location	has	been	prepared	and	the	speaker	has	been	connected,	the	installation	of	the	
speaker	is	easy.	Simply	lift	the	speaker	into	the	installation	hole.	Use	a	phillips	screw	driver	to	pivot	the	mounting	
clamp	arm	outward	and	draw	them	down	against	the	back	of	the	mounting	surface.	Then	gradually	tighten	the	
mounting	clamp	screws,	alternating	among	them,	until	the	speaker	is	firmly	clamped	in	place.	Do	not	use	exces-
sive	force	when	tightening	the	mounting	clamp	screws.
