6.2 Connection
If the loudspeakers are to be used with Naim amplification, Naim
loudspeaker cable will produce the best results and is necessary
with some amplifiers. Cable lengths to both loudspeakers should
be equal and be between 3.5 metres and 20 metres (11.5ft and
66ft). Your local retailer will be able to make up cables of the
appropriate length.
Connect the cables from the passive crossover units mounted
on the back of the
Lower Cabinets
to the input sockets on each
cabinet. Each longer cable should be connected to the sockets
on the back of the
Upper Cabinets
and each shorter cable to
the sockets on the back of the
Lower Cabinet.
Finally connect
the amplifier output speaker cables with their custom Naim plugs
to the input sockets on the back of the passive crossover units.
Ensure that each positive plug - identified by a rib on the side of
the cable and a tag marked “pos” on the side of the connector
body - is inserted to the red input sockets.
If the
allæ
is to be used in an active system the passive
crossover units should be removed and the
Upper Cabinet
(LF) and
Lower Cabinet
(HF) input sockets connected via
loudspeaker cables with custom Naim plugs directly to the
appropriate power amplifier.
Naim Floor Protectors can be
used to if the allæ is to be
installed on a non-carpeted floor.
