  • Page 9: Overview The V14Cx

    The V14CX loudspeaker is recommended for all applications and offers clarity and control in a compact format. Tecnare V14CX is designed as a complete system with the T-Series class D amplifier or DP-4896 DSP controller. Tecnare only recommends using presets developed by Tecnare Sound System.
  • Page 10: Connections

    Operation Manual Connections ® ® The V14CX loudspeaker utilizes Neutrik SpeakON connectors. There are two NLT4 ® connectors on the rear of each V14CX. These connectors made with Neutrik NL-4 or NL-4 compatible in-line cable connectors. All four pins of both connectors are wired in parallel to link multiple loudspeakers on a single amplifier output.
  • Page 11: Operation Modes

    Operation Manual Operation modes The V14CX may be switched between passive (full-range) mode and Bi-amped mode. It has a selector switch located in the rear recess on the connection panel. In the PASSIVE mode the V14CX is driven with a full-frequency range amplifier channel, and wire only the 1+ and 1- pins of the NL4 connectors.
