and note that one of the wires in each pair is marked by either a different color, printing, ridges, or a thread intertwined with the wire strands. By convention, the marked wire is connected to the red (+) terminal.
Whether your are connecting a complete System 350 THX, or adding one speaker component to your present system, the wiring should look like the diagram in Figure 2. Before turning on the amplifier, be certain that no stray wire strands are touching across the two terminals as this might damage your amplifier.
Figure 2: Typical wiring diagram for speakers in a home theater. Note that two 352 PBM Subwoofers are shown in this diagram in order to conform with THX specifications. Please consult the 352 PBM Owner’s Manual for more detailed information.
Finally, check the polarity of your front speakers by listening to some music. If the sound seems hollow, spread out and has weak bass, recheck your connections for proper polarity and reverse the connections if necessary.

However, certain guidelines must be followed to obtain optimum performance. Use the following placement guidelines and Figure 3 as a starting point.
