Connecting the Acoustimass

module to your receiver

CAUTION:

Do not connect the Acoustimass module directly to your television unless the

television provides surround decoding circuitry and amplified outputs for all channels.

Use the 20 foot (6 m) cable with five wire pairs to connect the Acoustimass module to your

surround sound receiver. Refer to Figure 8.

1. Connect all wires to the receiver in phase (+ to + and – to –).

a. Connect each wire marked with a red collar (+) to the appropriate red (+) output.

b. Connect each plain wire (–) to the appropriate black (–) output.

2. Match the label on the red collar of each wire pair to the SPEAKER OUTPUT label on the

receiver:

a. LEFT wires go to the LEFT FRONT SPEAKER OUTPUT connections.

b. CENTER wires go to the CENTER SPEAKER OUTPUT connections.

c. RIGHT wires go to the RIGHT FRONT SPEAKER OUTPUT connections.

d. LEFT SURROUND wires go to the LEFT SURROUND (rear) SPEAKER OUTPUT

connections.

e. RIGHT SURROUND wires go to the RIGHT SURROUND (rear) SPEAKER OUTPUT

connections.

3. At the Acoustimass module, check to make sure all connectors are firmly inserted into the

proper INPUTS FROM RECEIVER OR AMPLIFIER jacks. Black connectors go into L and R

jacks. Gray connectors go into C, LS, and RS jacks.

Checking your connections

Check all connections from the receiver to the Acoustimass module and the module to the

cube speakers. Check to be sure all speakers are connected to the proper terminals accord-

ing to their position in your room. Refer to Figure 8.

At the receiver, make sure the wires are connected in phase (+ to + and – to –). Incorrect

wiring can result in a total loss of Acoustimass module output.

Be sure to correct any wiring problems before you plug your receiver in and turn it on.

CAUTION:

Do not allow exposed wires to brush against each other; this could damage your

receiver.
