Rondo 2x2.5T (single wire) Rondo 4x2.5T (biwire) and Rondo/Quattro
4x4 (biwire)
Rondo 2x2.5T (shown above)
2 x 2.5 sq. mm Tin-plated OFC. Application examples: Medium power systems or shorter
lengths in high power systems.
A new addition to the range, Rondo 2x2.5T is the single wired version of the BEST
BUY Rondo 4x2.5T.
The same conductors are used but in a single wired form, with just two conductors
per sheath.
This makes it ideal for rear channel speakers, or for those that are not fitted
with bi-wire terminals.
Rondo 4x2.5T (shown above)
4 x 2.5 sq. mm Tin-plated OFC. Application examples: Bi-wiring/bi-amping high
power systems or longer lengths in low/medium power systems.
For biwiring Rondo 4x2.5T, follow this scheme, known as "star-quad",
to ensure the best sound and to minimise inductance:
At the amplifier end:
Twist the Red and Light
Blue coloured conductors together and connect to the amplifier positive
(+) or RED coloured speaker terminal, preferably
using a good quality connector, such as the Supra Banana or Supra CombiCon connectors.
Then, twist the Black and White
coloured conductors together and connect to the amplifiers negative (-) or BLACK
coloured speaker terminall, preferably using a good quality connector, such as
the Supra Banana or Supra CombiCon connectors.
At the speaker end:
Connect the Red wire to the Treble (or HF)
+ terminal, and the Black wire to the
Treble (or HF) - terminal.
And then connect the Light Blue wire to the
Bass (or LF) + terminal and the White
wire to the Bass (or LF) - terminal.
The use of suitable connectors at the loudspeaker end of the cable will permit
the easy connection and disconnection. If possible please use good quality, colour
coded connectors, such as the Supra Banana, Supra Fork or ForkXL or Supra CombiCon
connectors.
Rondo/Quattro 4x4 (shown above right)
4 x 4.0 sq. mm Tin-plated OFC. Application examples: Bi-wiring/bi-amping high
power systems or longer lengths in low/medium power systems.
For biwiring Rondo/Quattro 4x4, follow the same scheme as for Rondo 4x2.5T above
EXCEPT, if you have the older colour coding for Quattro, which is as follows::
At the amplifier end:
Twist the Red and Green
coloured conductors together and connect to the amplifier positive (+) or RED
coloured speaker terminal, preferably using a good quality connector, such as
the Supra Banana or Supra CombiCon connectors.
Then, twist the Dark Blue and White
coloured conductors together and connect to the amplifiers negative (-) or BLACK
coloured speaker terminall, preferably using a good quality connector, such as
the Supra Banana or Supra CombiCon connectors.
At the speaker end:
Connect the Red wire to the Treble (or HF)
+ terminal, and the Dark Blue wire to
the Treble (or HF) - terminal.
And then connect the Green
wire to the Bass (or LF) + terminal and the White
wire to the Bass (or LF) - terminal.
