1.With the speakers placed in their approximate locations, run one wire from each speaker to the amplifier.
If you are connecting a subwoofer, run two wires from each of the subwoofer’s terminals to the amplifier.
2.Separate each wire’s two conductors at both ends for a length of about 4 inches.
3.Strip the insulation from the ends of each conductor to expose 1/4 inch of wire. Twist the ends to secure loose strands.
