Connecting to this unit’s OUTPUT/INPUT terminals

For connections, keep the speaker wires as short as possible. (Cut the excessive wire, if necessary.) If the connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers. Make sure that the polarity of the speaker wires is correct, by observing + and – markings. If these wires are reversed, the sound will be unnatural and will lack bass.

Do not let the core of the speaker wires touch each other and do not let them touch the metal parts of this unit as this could damage this unit, your amplifier and/or speakers.

How to Connect:

Red: positive (+)

Black: negative (–)

1 Unscrew the knob.

2 Insert the core of the wire. [Remove approx. 5 mm (1/4”) insulation from the speaker wires.]

3 Tighten the knob to secure the wire firmly.

*Banana Plug connections are also possible (except for U.K. and Europe models). Simply insert the Banana Plug connec- tor into the corresponding terminal.
