Terminating The Speaker Wire; Installing The Concerto Amplifier - Nuvo Concerto NV-I8DMS User Manual

II.

Terminating the Speaker Wire

(fig. 2)
All the NuVo systems operate across a "homerun"
wiring scheme using Cat-5 for the zone keypad control
communication, and a separate run of speaker wire for
each zone from the speaker outputs to the zone speak-
ers. We suggest 16-gage 2- or 4-conductor speaker
wires.
The speaker wire termination is done using a modular
"Euro" connector. Each conductor is screwed down to
the connector block and plugged into the appropriate
speaker output on the back of the amplifier. The prop-
er termination is Left channel – and +, Right channel –
and +.

Installing the Concerto Amplifier

System setup works best when the amplifier is placed
in the same location as the audio source equipment.
This is typically in an audio rack, entertainment cen-
ter, or a closet dedicated to housing the home
audio/video equipment.
The amplifier should be plugged in and the power but-
ton on the front panel should be depressed before pro-
ceeding with the rest of the installation. This activates
the internal protective circuitry of the Concerto
System.
