Connecting your components

Important:

Please wait until you’ve connected all of the cables before plugging any of the components into AC wall outlets and turning them on.

Connecting your speakers

Connect your speakers first. You’ll have an easier time getting to the connections on the backs of the components before you connect all of the other cables.

1Place the speakers in their approximate locations first, then leave a little extra speaker wire so you can fine-tune their loca- tions.

2Use the speaker wire supplied with the speakers. If you need longer wire, buy speaker wire that is 18-gauge or thicker.

Remember, the smaller the number, the thicker the wire: 18-gauge wire is thicker than 20-gauge.

A few tips

To save you time, we’ve removed the insulation from the ends of the speaker wire we supplied.

When connecting speaker wires, be sure to connect positive connections to each other and negative connections to each other. Connecting positive to negative (+ to - ) or negative to

positive (- to +) can cause poor sound quality.

Never allow the positive and negative speaker wires to touch each other. Touching wires can cause a short circuit, which could damage your electronics.

Left and right speakers

Connect the left and right speakers to the ‘Speakers’ jacks on the receiver.
