CI TATION Four-Channel Operation: Using high quality interconnect cables, connect one output of your processor to an amplifier input channel. There is no special priority as to which specific channel (i.e. left, right, center, etc.) is connected to which amplifier channel when all four channels are used individually. You need only remember what the channel is, so that the proper speaker may be connected to the correct output. Make certain that both bridging switches are in the "normal" position. The toggle switches should be pointing up for both inputs. Connect the wire running to each speaker to the appropriate output channel as shown on the speaker icons to the right or left of the speaker connection binding posts. (Figure 2A) The "+" or "positive" connection goes to the top binding post with the red barrel. The "-" or "negative" connection goes to the bottom binding post with the black barrel.

Figure 2A Four-Channel Operation with DualDrive Dipoles Three-Channel Operation: When one high-powered channel and two medium-powered channels are required, the three-channel mode is used. Using high quality interconnect cables, link the output of your processor or preamplifier for the moderate powered channels (left/right front or surround channels) to the input connectors marked "Channel One" and "Channel Two". Be certain that the bridging switch on the left side of the rear panel, above the inputs for Channel One and Channel Two, is in the "Normal" position with the toggle switch pointing up. Connect the output from your processor or preamp which is to be connected to the higher powered amplification channel (center or subwoofer channels) to the input connector marked "Channel Three" on the rear of the Citation 7.1. The input connection for "Channel Four" is not used in this configuration. (Figure 2B) 14

connect
one
output
of
your
processor
to
an
amplifier
input
channel.
There
is
no
special
priority
as
to
which
specific
channel
(i.e.
left,

center,
etc.)
is
connected
to
which

channel
when
all
four
channels
are
used
individually.
You
need
only
remember
what
the
channel
is,
so
that
the
proper
speaker
may
be
connected
to
the
correct
output.
Make
certain
that
both
bridging
switches
are
in
the
"normal"
position.
The
toggle
switches
should
be
pointing
up
for
both
inputs.
Connect
the
wire
running
to

to
the
appropriate

channel
as
shown
on

to
the

-Channel
Operation:
When
one
high-powered
channel
and
two
medium
-powered
channels
are
required,
the
three
-channel
mode
is
used.
Using
high

for
the
moderate

channels
(left/right
