Setup

Preparing speaker cord

Speaker cord consists of two insulated wires. The insulation

around one wire is striped, collared, or ribbed. This marked wire is

always positive (+). The plain wire is always negative (–). These

correspond to the positive (red) and negative (black) terminals on

the back of each speaker, receiver, or amplifier. Be sure to connect

each wire to the proper terminal (+ to +, – to –).

Note: Be sure to cut enough cord to reach from the receiver to

each speaker.

At the ends of each cord, strip approximately 1⁄2 inch (1.3þcm) of

insulation from both wires. Twist the bare ends of each wire so

there are no loose strands.

Connecting speaker cord to the speakers

Locate the terminals on the back of each speaker. Depress the red

terminal button (

Figure 2), insert the marked (+) wire and release

the button. Depress the black terminal button, insert the plain (–)

wire and release the button.

Connecting speaker cord to your receiver or amplifier

Connect the left speaker cord to the left channel speaker output

of your receiver or amplifier. Attach the marked wire to the red (+)

terminal and the plain wire to the black (–) terminal. In the same

manner, connect the right speaker cord to the right channel

speaker output.

CAUTION: Make sure no loose strands of wire touch across termi-

nals. This could create a short circuit that can damage an amplifier

or receiver. Secure any loose wires before you plug in the receiver

or amplifier.

Note: If these speakers are used for the rear surround channels in

a home theater system, choose the “SMALL SPEAKER” setting.
