To use a DSP3300 as the centre speaker in a
Meridian Digital Theatre
The DSP3300 is ideal as the centre loudspeaker in a Meridian
Digital Theatre, in combination with DSP3200 or DSP3300
front and rear loudspeakers and a DSW subwoofer. The system
can be controlled by a Meridian Digital Surround Controller such
as the G68. The following diagram shows how to connect the
speakers using “home run” wiring.
Connect the L+R SpeakerLink output on the lower row of
•
the G68 to the Master digital speaker (here the front left
speaker), using a Meridian SpeakerLink lead.
Connect the appropriate SpeakerLink outputs on the G68
•
to each of the remaining speakers and the subwoofer, using
Meridian SpeakerLink leads.
DSP3300 User Guide
Set the Channel selector on the front and rear left speakers
•
to the L/C position, and on the front and rear right speakers
to the R position.
Set the Channel selector on the centre speaker to the L/C
•
position, and on the DSW subwoofer to the 2 position.
Alternatively you can connect the speakers using “daisy chain”
wiring: connect the front and rear L speakers to the G68,
and then link each pair of speakers together by connecting
the output from the L speaker to the input of the R speaker.
Likewise connect the centre speaker to the G68, and then
link the output from the centre speaker to the input of the
subwoofer.
Note that if the system includes DSP loudspeakers with
displays, such as the DSP5200, one of them must be set up as
the master in the system.
