1. Connect a two-pole (+/-) loudspeaker cable to the binding posts, located at rear of the cabinet. The high
quality, gold plated binding posts can accommodate different connection systems:
• 4.0 mm banana plugs: The pins can be put directly into the binding post without any tightening necessary.
• Cable spades: Un-tighten the binding posts, insert the spade into the opening, and secure the spade
by tightening the posts
• Bare wires: Un-tighten the binding posts and place the cable into the binding posts. Tighten the posts.
2. Connect the other cable ends to the loudspeaker outputs of your switched off power amp.
The loudspeaker cable can have an impact on sound quality. In general, quality cable products will yield a
quality result. Make sure to keep the cable length as short as possible. We recommend the use of a 2,5mm²
(14 AWG) diameter for distances < 15m. Please make sure that all connectors are clean and not oxidized.
When connecting a two-channel stereo system, only the right and left channels are connected to the amplifier.
In a surround set-up, center, side or rear loudspeakers as well as a subwoofer are typically connected to
provide for a multi-channel listening experience. Please refer to the amplifier's owner manual for particular
connection instructions and see chapter "Multichannel loudspeaker setup" on page 7 for further help.
The M8 has two sets of threaded inserts with a distance of 76 mm (3") which are intended to be used with
our Flush Mount kit, see figure here to the left. This spacing is also widely compatible with many after-market
mounting brackets.
Note:
There are 2 sets (4 pcs of 2 mm thick, 4 pcs of 6mm thick) of rubber spacers included with the M8. These
can be placed on the back of the speaker to prevent scratching the wall and provide space to run the speaker
wires. Choose the spacer thickness according to how far you want the speaker to be away from the wall.
