Bare Wire

Unscrew the red or black plastic knobs and insert the bare wire through the hole in the post. Tighten the knob until the wire is secure- ly clamped.

Banana Plugs

There are many types of banana plugs available. Some are crimped onto the speaker wire and some are soldered. Niles offers banana plugs that have a quick-connect binding system for the speaker wire included within the banana plug itself. After the wire is attached, the banana plug is simply inserted into the hole at the end of the amplifier's speak- er binding post. Dual spaced banana plugs will fit the SI-1260 bind- ing posts.
