    2.2. Connections 16C cabinets are fitted with a 4-pole Phoenix Euroblock connector block accepting a 2-pole Phoenix Euroblock screw terminal connector (cross-section up to 4 mm /AWG 11). The connector uses the pin assignments 1: + and 2: —. Pins 3 and 4 are not connected.
  • Page 8 HFA circuit In HFA mode (High Frequency Attenuation), the HF response of the system is rolled off. HFA provides a natural, balanced frequency response when a unit is placed close to listeners in near field or delay use. High Frequency Attenuation begins gradually at 1 kHz, dropping by approximately 3 dB at 10 kHz.
