Setup
Do not plug the AC power plug into the wall outlet until all connections are made.
The ADA880 can be setup in two configurations. For ENHANCED SURROUND sound a 5-piece setup is used. For near field
STEREO/SURROUND sound a 3-piece setup is used. The two modes of operation are described below. The speakers are packaged
and shipped in the 5-piece arrangement. Follow the instructions and pictorial view below to make the 5-piece connections.
Enhanced Surround Sound Operation (See Figure 1)
1) Connect the left and right satellite speakers.
Notice that the DIN connectors from the left and right satellite speakers are color-coded and plug into the matching color
indicators on the back of the subwoofer. Also note that the connectors have arrows. These arrows should face up as shown
in Figure 1.
2) Connect the left and right surround speakers.
The left (yellow) and right (purple) surround speaker connectors are plugged into the corresponding colored inputs on the
back of the subwoofer.
3) Connect the subwoofer to the computer.
The green color-coded wire connects the ANALOG INPUT on the subwoofer to the AUDIO OUTPUT on the computer.
The black RCA type plug is used to connect the S/PDIF INPUT on the subwoofer to a DVD player.
4) Plug the AC power plug into the wall outlet.
The ADA880 unit should be installed close to the AC power outlet so that the power plug can be readily removed from the
outlet in the event of a hazardous problem.
Your ADA880 system is now ready for use.
Near Field Stereo/Surround Sound Operation (see Figures 2 and 3)
If it is desired to convert to a 3-speaker system, follow the instructions and the pictorial view below.
1) Separate the left and right surround speakers from their stands by gently pulling the speaker up (See Figure 2)
2) Remove the left (yellow) and right (purple) speaker wires from the subwoofer.
(Set speaker stands aside for future use)
3) Remove the supplied rubber plugs from the top of the satellite speakers.
4) Mount the surround speakers on top of the satellite speakers as shown in Figure 2.
(The connections to the satellite speakers are made automatically once the surround speakers are mounted)
