Speaker Connections

After your speakers are properly placed, you are ready to wire your system. First, turn off all system power. Use the speaker wire include with the system to make your connections. Please see the illustration below for guidance connecting the wires to the MCS 130 satellites and center channel.

For connection to your receiver please refer to its owner’s manual.

Important!

To ensure the best performance observe polarities when making speaker connections, as shown in the illustration. Connect each + terminal on the back of the amplifi er or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on each speaker. Connect the – (black) terminals in the same way.

If the connections are not made correctly it can cause poor bass response and imaging. Also, to avoid short circuits that may damage your equipment be careful not to let any of the bare wires touch each other.

.

Be sure to maintain proper + and – polarity at all speaker wire connections.

Speaker wires can be routed through the channels on the back of the speaker and the holes in the feet.

Subwoofer Connections

Turn off all power. Use the subwoofer cable included with your system to connect the subwoofer to your receiver’s Subwoofer or LFE output. Connect the other end to the “Line In” on the back of the Subwoofer.
