Using Neutrik speakON connectors for BRIDGE MODE
Neutrik speakON is a professional industry standard for loudspeaker connections. It provides a silver-plated,
low-resistance, low-mass contact for best signal connection with lowest mass storage effects, and is designed
for very high current up to 50 amperes. The turn-and-lock mechanism with touch-proof contacts and a high
level of strain relief on the cable allows a very reliable, durable, and easy cable connection.
Neutrik speakON allows a bare metal wire diameter between 1.5 - 4 mm² / 16 - 12 AWG, to be screwed or
soldered to the silver-plated clamps inside.
Connecting the speaker cable in BRIDGE MODE
•
Cut and strip back the speaker cable according to the illustration below: 25mm/1.0 inch for each insulated
wire, 12mm/0.5 inch for each metal wire.
•
Unscrew the blue Neutrik bushing and remove the black cable clamp.
Pull both over the speaker cable, to be tightened later.
•
Insert the two bare metal wires in the silver-plated cable clamps inside the Neutrik
connector. Tighten each wire end using a POZIDRIV® #1
Pay attention to the 2+ and 2- markings, otherwise the audio signal will be out of phase.
