APart OVO5 [4/8] Connecting the speaker

WWW.APART-AUDIO.COM

Use the correct polarity when daisy chaining speakers! When a mistake occurs

in your daisy chain, it can severely impact speaker performance as there will be

audio-cancellation.

The daisy chain options are endless and the setup will depend on the capabilities of

your amplifier. Make sure when daisy chaining speakers that the total impedance is

not lower than the lowest specified impedance of your amplifier. Not following this

rule might result in distorted sound and might even damage your amplifier.
