Connect Your Loudspeakers - Bang & Olufsen BeoLab 1 User Manual

6
You gain access to the BeoLab 1
socket panel through the base
plate.
So, connect the cables (and set the
two switches) while the BeoLab 1
is still lying on the packaging.
The setting of the L • R • LINE
switch is explained on this page,
and the setting of the Speaker
Position switch is explained on
pages 8–9.
Use the overview on the next page
and the graphics imprinted on the
socket panel for reference, when
locating the sockets and switches.
Note: To make a neat installation,
we suggest that you run the cables
through the cable cover as
explained on the next page.

Connect your loudspeakers

...to a Bang & Olufsen product
Connect the BeoLab 1 to your audio (or
video) system using the enclosed 8-pin
Power Link cable:
• Plug one end of the cable into one of the
sockets marked POWER LINK on the BeoLab 1,
and the other end into any one of the two
sockets marked POWER LINK on the audio
or video system (please refer to the Guide
for the system in question).
• The switch marked L • R • LINE must be set
to either L or R:
L for the left-hand speaker/sound channel;
set the switch to its utmost left position.
R for the right-hand speaker/sound channel;
set the switch to its middle position.
Looping the signals through from speaker
to speaker...
To avoid cables running from both loud-
speakers to your system, you can loop the
signal through from speaker to speaker:
• Connect one BeoLab 1 loudspeaker to your
system as previously described, e.g. the left-
hand speaker.
• Make a connection from the first BeoLab 1 to
the other one, using the second Power Link
socket.
You may connect more than one pair of
BeoLab 1 speakers to your system (as many
as ten pairs, in fact). You just have to run a
Power Link cable from speaker to speaker.
Remember though, to set the L • R • LINE
switch to the proper position for the left-
and right-hand speakers, respectively.
