6. Installing the Speakers
IMPORTANT:
Ensure the speaker load presented to the amplifier is within its published specifications. Miswiring may
result in an unacceptable load, which might damage the amplifier.
Using 4-Conductor Direct-Burial Wire
1.
Unwind the 4-conductor wire spool towards the amplifier from
the furthest speaker, leaving the wire attached to the spool at
the amplifier end. Do not connect the wires to the amplifier at
this time.
2.
Starting at the speaker furthest from the amplifier, strip 3/4" of
insulation on the cut end of the burial wires for the appropriate
amp channel according to the tables below, then strip insulation
from the ends of the corresponding speaker's pigtail. Wrap any
unused wires in electrical tape to protect them from moisture
and short-circuiting (see Figure 5).
3.
Connect the burial cable to the speaker pigtail using a wire tie
(see Figure 5).
4.
Twist to combine all the positive (+) wires together and combine
all the negative (-) wires together according to the tables below.
5.
Twist the provided silicone-filled wire nuts onto the combined
positive wires and onto the combined negative wires, ensuring
that no copper is exposed. Wrap each wire nut connection in
electrical tape to protect it from moisture.
6.
Leave 14-16" of excess wire at the speaker so that the wire
doesn't kink or pull taut during burial, then move to the next
speaker along the cable.
7.
At the next speaker, use a round cable stripper or utility knife
to remove 8" of the outside wire jacket, exposing the four
insulated wires.
8.
Cut the correct two wires for the left or right speaker (see the
tables below) and strip 3/4" of insulation on the exposed ends
of the burial wires, then strip 3/4" insulation from the ends of
the corresponding speaker's pigtail (see Figure 6).
9.
Create a loop of approximately 10", and use a wire tie to hold
the wire loop and speaker pigtail in place to provide strain
relief, as shown in Figure 6.
10. Repeat steps 4-6 then continue for each remaining bollard
speaker along the cable. For subwoofer installation, refer to the
guide included with the subwoofer.
