Wiring and Setting Up
NOTE: The speaker images shown are for guidance only, and may not exactly represent your particular model.
We recommend the use of insulated speaker wiring of between 12 and 18 AWG.
WARNING: The power to the amplier must be turned OFF when making connections to the loudspeakers.
All connections must be checked before turning the ampliers.
1. Remove the wiring cover at the back of the speaker can to access the removeable Euro-type connector plug and socket.
2. The speakers come with a standard speaker cable clamp (Fig.1), and an optional gland for EN5424 applications (Fig.2).
(Please note that EN5424 does not cover the CVS 801S and CVS801SLZ subwoofers.)
3. Feed the cable through and attach to the Euro-type connector (Fig.3). '
4. For connection to an amplier, use Pins 1 and 2 (Figs.3, 4, 5):
• Make sure that the wiring polarity is correct, where:
• Pin 1 is positive
• Pin 2 is negative
For connection to additional speakers in a distributed line (Fig.4)
Pins 3 and 4 are used to loop thru to additional speakers:
• Make sure that the wiring polarity is correct, where:
• Pin 3 is positive
• Pin 4 is negative

Installation Instructions for Optional Plaster Ring
An optional plaster (mud) ring bracket is available from Tannoy. This bracket is designed to be
pre-installed into newly constructed, non-suspended ceilings.
NOTE: The speaker images shown are for guidance only, and may not exactly represent
your particular model.
1. Nail or screw the plaster ring to the joists. (Fig.1)
2. Lay the speaker wiring to where the speaker will be tted and complete the plastering work on the ceiling.
3. Cut out the hole in the ceiling using a pad saw. (Fig.2)
4. Go to page 15 for instructions on wiring then return to point 5 below.
5. Connect a secondary support line to the safety tab. Some construction codes require use of this secondary
support point, which should connect to a separate secure support point using a suitable support line.
Consult construction codes in your region.
6. Slide the speaker assembly through the hole and turn the screws to extend the mounting wings.
Tighten the screws until a rm grip is achieved.
If using a power driver, Tannoy recommends a torque setting of 1.5 Nm. (Fig.3)
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
7. Insert grille by pushing it onto the speaker. (Fig.4)
