FOIRE AUX QUESTIONS - INCOGNITO SS10 CAMBRIDGE AUDIO

Quel type de câble utiliser pour connecter les enceintes SS10 ?

Il est recommandé d'utiliser un câble de qualité d'au moins 16 AWG. Le système utilise du câble Cat-5 ou Cat-6 pour la distribution audio, mais la connexion directe à l'amplificateur se fait avec un câble enceinte standard.

Comment installer les enceintes SS10 dans le plafond ?

Utilisez le gabarit fourni pour marquer l'emplacement, découpez un trou avec une scie à plâtre, insérez l'enceinte après avoir déplacé les pattes de fixation vers la gauche, puis serrez les vis en tournant dans le sens horaire pour que les pattes agrippent le plafond.

Puis-je peindre le cadre et la grille de l'enceinte ?

Oui, retirez la grille à l'aide d'un petit crochet, utilisez le masque de peinture en plastique fourni pour protéger le cône, puis peignez le cadre et la grille selon vos envies.

Quelle est l'impédance des enceintes SS10 ?

L'impédance est de 4 ohms, ce qui permet une utilisation avec l'amplificateur KP10 ou tout amplificateur compatible.

Que faire si le son est distordu ou faible ?

Vérifiez d'abord les connexions de polarité : le fil rouge (+) doit être connecté à la borne rouge, et le noir (-) à la borne noire. Une inversion de polarité cause un son creux et indistinct. Corrigez les branchements si nécessaire.

Comment nettoyer les enceintes SS10 ?

Essuyez le cadre avec un chiffon humide. N'utilisez pas de produits chimiques agressifs, de solvants ou de détergents puissants. Évitez de mouiller le cône du haut-parleur.

Quelle est la profondeur minimale nécessaire derrière le plafond ?

Il faut un dégagement arrière d'au moins 80 mm pour installer correctement l'enceinte.

Puis-je utiliser ces enceintes sans le clavier KP10 ?

Oui, elles peuvent être connectées à tout amplificateur compatible, mais elles sont optimisées pour une utilisation avec le KP10 du système Incognito.

Que faire si aucun son ne sort de l'enceinte ?

Vérifiez que l'amplificateur est allumé et correctement réglé. Assurez-vous que les câbles d'interconnexion sont bien insérés. Si le problème persiste, testez avec une autre source.

Comment retirer la grille de l'enceinte ?

Insérez un petit crochet ou un outil similaire dans un des trous de la grille et tirez doucement pour la déclipser.

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing these Cambridge Audio incognito SS10 Passive Ceiling Speakers. Incognito is a cost-effective, modular based system using standard Cat-5 or Cat-6 cable to distribute hi-fi quality sound and video images around the home. The SS10 are for use primarily in conjunction with the KP10 amplified keypad.

About this unit

Your new Incognito in-ceiling speakers have been designed specifically to enhance the performance of your home entertainment system.

They are the result of an extensive research and development programme undertaken to provide you with accurate, uncompromised reproduction of movie soundtracks and music. With attention to detail second to none, these speakers are designed to deliver maximum enjoyment. They mount flush with the ceiling, and you can paint their frames and grilles to match the room's decor.

Please take time to read this guide, as it contains important installation information. The SS10 can only be as good as the system it is connected to. Please do not compromise on your audio/visual source components. Naturally, we recommend products from the Cambridge Audio Azur range.

Now we invite you to sit back, relax and enjoy!

PREPARING THE LOCATION

It is advisable to plan all aspects of installation in advance of work beginning, preferably with the house/flat building schematics if available. Great care should be taken to ensure that all building regulations are followed. If in doubt consult an expert.

When placing the SS10 speakers, thought should be given to positions which give the best desired sound coverage throughout a room, while not interfering with existing or planned light fittings or joists. Also, locate speakers taking into account location of furnishings for optimal stereo reproduction.

Follow these steps to prepare the mounting location:

1. Remove the round cardboard pad from inside the supplied template (see below).

1. Use the template to mark the position for the mounting hole at the selected location.

Before cutting ceiling speaker holes, it is suggested that the area is tested for clearance by making an L-shaped probe from strong wire (see illustration below), drilling a small hole in the target area, inserting the probe and slowly turning. Any obstructions will be immediately obvious, and the target area can be moved to a more suitable position.

1. Cut the mounting hole with a drywall or keyhole saw.

Be sure the mounting surface is between 10 and 30mm thick, and that there is at least 80mm of clearance behind the mounting surface. Also, be sure no wall studs or other objects block the back of the speaker.

Min 10-30mm

PAINTING THE FRAME AND GRILLE

Remove grille by inserting a small hook or similar small implement into one of the grille openings, then pulling on the grille.

Fit the clear plastic painting mask provided when painting the speaker surround to avoid getting paint getting on the speaker cone.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Your speakers are an example of superior design and craftsmanship. These suggestions will help you care for them so you can enjoy them for years.

Keep the speakers dry. If they get wet dry immediately. Liquids can contain minerals that can corrode electronic components.

Keep the speakers away from dust or dirt, which can cause premature wear of parts.

Wipe the speaker frame occasionally with a damp cloth to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or strong detergents.

MOUNTING THE SS10

Before mounting, ensure that the four fixing screws are slackened off so that the red mounting dog-legs can move freely.

Move each red dog-leg foot to the LEFT into it's holding slot, and then insert the speaker into the mounting hole.

Using a cross-head screwdriver, slowly turn each fixing screw clockwise. This will move the mounting dog-legs out of their slots.

Tighten each fixing screw until the mounting dog-legs grip the ceiling.

CONNECTING THE SS10

Do not compromise the performance of your system by using inferior quality speaker cables. We recommend that high quality cables of 16 gauge or higher be used. Your professional dealer will give you good advice. Always unplug all A.C. powered components before making any loudspeaker or component connections. This will avoid the risk of electric shock or damage to your equipment.

Follow these steps to connect the speaker to your amplification system:

1. Route the speaker cable from your amplification system to the speakers.

2. Avoid routing the speaker cable near electrical wires

3. Do not nail or staple the cable

4. Separate about 100mm of speaker cable at each end.

5. Using a wire stripper, remove about 10mm of insulation from both ends of each conductor, and then twist the strands of each conductor (fig.1).
6. Observing polarity is of the utmost importance while connecting your speakers. Ensure that the red (+) terminals on your amplification system are connected to the red (+) on the speakers, and black (-) on your amplification system to black (-) on your speakers (fig.2).

The speaker cable is coded with a bead or stripe down one lead's insulation, or has differently coloured wires.

Press the spring-loaded red or black tab back to reveal the connecting hole. Insert the stripped end of the speaker wire, then release the tab.

1. If your speakers are wired incorrectly they will be out of phase and sound hollow and indistinct, with a weak bass. Re-check your connections for correct polarity and reverse the connections if necessary.

TROUBLESHOOTING
