WIRING THE SYSTEM
IMPORTANT: Make sure all equipment is turned off before making any connections.
For speaker connections, use a minimum
NOTE: If desired, consult your local Infinity dealer about speaker wire and connection options.
The speakers have coded terminals that accept a variety of wire connectors. The most common connection is shown in Figure 4.
To ensure proper polarity, connect each + terminal on the back of the amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on each speaker, as shown in Figure 5. Connect the – (black) terminals in a similar way. See the owner’s guides that were included with your amplifier, receiver and television to confirm connection procedures.
IMPORTANT: Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to – or – to +) when making connections. Doing so will cause poor imaging and diminished bass response.
