'''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.
 
# Disconnect any power amplifier to speakers connections
 
# Switch off ALL power amplifiers.
 
# Set to a low volume value, e.g 40-50
 
# Connect ONLY the Bass (or drive unit you are testiing shown in point7) power amplifier connection to the Bass connection (or drive unit you are testiing shown in point7) of the speaker.
 
# Switch on the Bass amplifier and play some Music. Check that you are only getting Bass audio from that speaker drive unit.
 
# Stop the Music playing.
 
# Leave this cable connected and repeat steps 3-7 repeating the test for each speaker individually in the order of
 
:: ''Bass, Midrange, tweeter and super-tweeter''
