| − | === '''Power Amplifier/Speaker connections''' ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you have power amplifers with RCA/Phono terminations we suggest you use the follow setup.<br>
| |
| − | ONLY use ALL XLR connections or ALL Phono/RCA connections to the power amplfiers. (The Klimax 350 and Komri internal amplifier is an XLR connection, you CAN use RCA/Phono '''or''' XLR amplifiers with these speakers configurations)
| |
| − | | |
| − | The recommended wiring from XLR to RCA is shown below.
| |

| |
| − | <BR><BR><BR>
| |
| − | To see the Exaktbox terminations for each speaker[[Klimax ExaktBox Connections| click here]]
| |
| − | <BR>
| |
| − | '''DOUBLE CHECK the wiring from the Exaktbox to power amplifier to speaker terminals!'''<br>
| |
| − | If there are any mis-wires or wrong speaker definintions in the Exaktbox, you may blow the speaker drive units, so take care.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If this is the first connection use the standard Aktiv test scenario.
| |
| − | # Switch off ALL power amplifiers.
| |
| − | # Disconnect any power amplifier to speakers connections
| |
| − | # Set to a low volume value, e.g 40-50
| |
| − | # Do the following tests 5,6,7,8 starting with the Bass connections, then Midrange, then tweeter and finally super tweeter in that order.
| |
| − | # Connect respective (Bass or Mid or tweeter ot super-tweeter) power amplifier connection to the Bass connection (Bass or Mid or tweeter ot super-tweeter) of the speaker.
| |
| − | # Switch on the respective amplifier and play some Music. Check that you are only getting (Bass or Mid or tweeter ot super-tweeter) audio from that speaker drive unit.
| |
| − | # Stop the Music playing.
| |
| − | # Leave this cable connected go to Step4 and connect the next speaker drive unit in the list.
| |
| − | '''If you change speaker or variant, this may also change the Exaktbox terminations so DOUBLE CHECK'''
