How to connect your speakers
CONNECT-UP TO THE AMPLIFIER
Important! Switch-off your amplifier before connecting the speakers to it.
You will find one of the connector terminals as shown in Fig. 5 on the rear of your Canton speakers. These ter-
minals are provided for connecting the Canton speakers to the amplifier. If present, first remove the insulating
protective caps from the screw terminals.
Important! Make sure that the polarity is correct. Plus to plus and minus to minus
In order to make it easier to distinguish plus (+) from minus (-) the screwclamps on the back of the loudspeaker
(plus = red, minus = black) as well as the screwclamps of your amplifier or receiver differ in colour or are marked
with a symbol. Also the two conductors of the loudspeaker cable differ in colour, form or marking.
BI-WIRING/BI-AMPING-TERMINAL
Most of our speakers are equipped such that you can connect the tweeter/midrange chassis and the woofer
chassis separately to two respective amplifiers (bi-amping), or at least via two separate connecting cables (bi-wi-
ring). For this purpose these speakers are fitted with a dual terminals set. The upper pair of sockets is intended for
the treble/midrange frequencies, and the bottom pair for bass frequencies. These two terminal pairs have been
linked with jumpers in the factory for normal operation with a single connecting cable. Remove the jumpercables
for bi-wiring/bi-amping operating mode. For this purpose, release the terminal screws and pull the jumpercables
away to the side under the screws. Fig. 6 shows the cable connections diagram for the two variants.
