How to Connect using a two Amplifiers
Caution: The AC Power Cord should not be connected to the
Power Amplifiers until after the Loudspeaker Con-
nections have been made. Failure to observe this
could result in Electric Shock.
Follow the connection instructions below, together with the
Connection Diagrams located on the separate folded sheet
“Mc1A and 1B”, as this represents an example of a typical
audio system. Your system may vary from this, however
the actual components would be connected in a similar
manner.
1. Prepare Loudspeaker cables by choosing one of the
methods below:
Bare wire cable ends:
Carefully remove sufficient insulation from the cable
ends, refer to figures 20, 21 & 22. If the cable is
stranded, carefully twist the strands together as tightly
as possible.
Note: If desired, the twisted ends can be tinned with solder
to keep the strands together or attach spade lugs.
Spade lug or prepared wire connection:
Insert the spade lug connector or prepared section
of the cable end into the terminal side access hole,
and tighten the terminal cap until the cable is firmly
clamped into the terminal so the wires cannot slip out.
Refer to figures 23, 24 & 25.
2. Connect a Loudspeaker cable from the XCS2K HIGH
Frequency INPUTS 3 (-) Binding Post to the (-) Bind
-
ing Post C of the Power Amplifier number two.
Note: It is important to maintain the correct polarity at
both ends of the Loudspeaker cables.
3. Connect a Loudspeaker cable from the XCS2K HIGH
Frequency INPUTS 3 (+) Binding Post to the (8 ohm)
Binding Post C of the Power Amplifier number two.
4. Connect a Loudspeaker cable from the XCS2K MID
Frequency INPUTS 2 (-) Binding Post to the (-) Bind-
ing Post B of the Power Amplifier number two.
5. Connect a Loudspeaker cable from the XCS2K MID
Frequency INPUTS 2 (+) Binding Post to the (8 ohm)
Binding Post B of the Power Amplifier number two.
6. Connect a Loudspeaker cable from the XCS2K MID
Frequency INPUTS 3 (-) Binding Post to the (-) Bind
-
ing Post A of the Power Amplifier number two.
7. Connect a Loudspeaker cable from the XCS2K MID
Frequency INPUTS 3 (+) Binding Post to the (8 ohm)
Binding Post A of the Power Amplifier number two.
8. Connect Loudspeaker cables from the XCS2K LOW
Frequency INPUTS 3 (-) and (+) Binding Posts to the
(-) and (8 ohm) Binding Posts A of the Power Amplifier
number one.
9. Connect Loudspeaker cables from the XCS2K LOW
Frequency INPUTS 2 (-) and (+) Binding Posts to the
(-) and (8 ohm) Binding Posts B of the Power Amplifier
number one.
10. Connect Loudspeaker cables from the XCS2K LOW
Frequency INPUTS 1 (-) and (+) Binding Posts to the
(-) and (8 ohm) Binding Posts C of the Power Ampli-
fier number one.
11. Tighten all of the Loudspeaker and Amplifier Binding
Posts.
