CONNECTION
Follow these procedures in order to successfully connect the Formula FH6-LCR Channel Speaker:
-
Get the presenter ready by:
Make sure that you have all of the components that are required for the installation, such as a speaker wire, a receiver or amplifier, and any equipment that is required for the work. -
Figure out where the speaker is located:
Determine where you would like to put the FH6-LCR speaker in your system. Because it is often utilized as a center channel speaker in a home theater system, it needs to be positioned at a height that is appropriate, either above or below the TV or screen. -
Install the speaker wire:
Take the necessary measurements, then cut the speaker wire to that length. Remove around half an inch’s worth of insulation from either end of the speaker wire. -
Join the wires for the speakers:
Locate and label the speaker terminals that are located on the rear of the FH6-LCR speaker. In most cases, there are two separate sets of terminals available for attaching the speaker wire. The positive (+) terminal is commonly denoted by a “+” sign or a binding post that is colored red, whereas the negative (-) terminal is denoted by a “-” symbol or a binding post that is colored black. -
Join the FH6-LCR speaker to the end of the wire for the speaker:
After that, make sure that the bare end of the positive (+) speaker wire is inserted into the positive (+) terminal of the speaker, and then make sure that the binding post is tightened. Follow the same procedure to attach the negative (-) wire, this time connecting it to the speaker’s negative (-) terminal. -
To the opposite end of the speaker cable, connect the following:
Connect the other end of the speaker wire to the amplifier or receiver in your system. Find the speaker output terminals on the rear of the receiver or amplifier. These are the ones that are typically labeled as “Center” or “Center Channel.” -
Establish the connection between the speaker wire and the receiver or amplifier:
Establish a connection between the positive (+) speaker output terminal of the receiver or amplifier and the positive (+) wire coming from the FH6-LCR speaker. Connect the negative (-) wire coming from the FH6-LCR speaker to the terminal labeled “negative” on the speaker output. Check to see that the polarity (+/-) is matched up correctly. -
Make sure that the connections are safe:
If you want the best possible audio performance, you need to check that all of the connections are firm and secure. Make sure the polarity is checked twice to confirm that the wiring is done correctly. -
Set up your audio system:
To configure the settings for the speaker that serves as the center channel, go to the manual that came packaged with your audio receiver or amplifier. -
Put the speaker to the test:
After you have finished making all of the necessary connections, turn on your audio system and either play some audio or do a speaker test to validate that the FH6-LCR speaker is operating appropriately.
