Bi-Amplification And Bi-Wiring - Triangle 40th anniversary Série Mode D'emploi & Garantie

Connections
For optimal sound reproduction, we suggest that you choose a loudspeaker cable of high quality to
connect your amplifier to your TRIANGLE loudspeakers. You should use cables of the same lengh
for the left and right channels and take special care to respect the + and - polarity for each channel.
Don't forget to strip the cables if it's necessary.

BI-AMPLIFICATION AND BI-WIRING

For those wishing to improve their listening system further, it is possible to use bi-amplification or
bi-wiring.
Bi-amplification
A
With bi-amplification, interference between the woofers and other drivers is totally eliminated, as
each one is driven by its own amplifier. It is compulsory to use identical amplifiers to conserve the
uniformity of the loudspeaker.
To do this, remove the terminal jumpers and use two stereo amplifiers. On the speakers, the upper
terminals are the signal inputs for midrange and treble. The lower terminals are the signal inputs
for bass. Use one amplifier to feed the bass, and the second for the midrange and treble (see the
next page diagram).
Bi-wiring
B
Instead of two amplifiers, you can use a single amplifier if it is equipped with zones 1 and 2. Both
zones should be selected.
You need to remove the terminal jumpers for bi-wiring.
To get the most out of you loudspeakers, we advise you to get a good quality amplifier. You
do not have to choose your amplifier power by checking your loudspeaker power handling. It
is better to have a powerful amplifier that you will be using in its lower range of power than a
«small» amplifier that will be pushed to its limits. Distorded sound from an amplifier is bad for
your loudspeakers. As soon as you hear distorded sound you should lower the volume on your
amplifier. Stay reasonable when using your loudspeaker at high power, they are not made for
sound reinforcement system at large concert venue.
