(Stacking the units on top of each other will reduce the
sound quality slightly. It will also reduce ventilation and
consequently
the
continuous
power
handling
capability).
The existing integrated amplifier should be used to
drive the loudspeakers' HF (high frequency or treble)
units. The new Alpha 8P is utilised for the LF (low
frequency or bass) drivers, as shown in the wiring
diagram below.
At the end of a listening session the Alpha 8P should
always be turned off first.
High quality interconnect cables should be used
between the integrated amplifier and Alpha 8P.
The use of high quality interconnect and speaker
cables in your system is essential to obtain good
sound quality. Contact your dealer for further details.
Note: The second set of speaker terminals (SP2) on both
units can be used to drive extra loudspeakers in other
rooms provided the impedance of these is 8 ohms or
more.

WARNING - Ensure that the TERMINAL LINKS
ARE
REMOVED
from
your
biwireable

Failure to do this could cause damage to one or
both amplifiers and this is not covered under the
warranty.
