AudioSource RK5 Care and Cleaning, Connecting the Speakers to Your Audio System, To speaker

Care and Cleaning

The weathering which occurs in your yard will add to the natural look of the speakers. However, if you wish to clean them use only a damp cloth or paper towel. The stream from your hose or pressure washer will damage the drivers in your RK5 speakers. Cleaning and garden chemicals should not be used on or near your speakers.

Connecting the Speakers to Your Audio System

The RK5 speakers have convenient color coded wire terminations. The use of silicone sealant filled wire nuts rated for direct burial is recommended to prevent corrosion and maintain a good connection. Common wire nuts may be used along with a silicone sealant applied separately.

Speaker wire is usually coded to maintain proper system phasing. This can be by color coding, or one conductor may have a printed marking or a rib along one edge that will not be found on the other. You must carefully observe the positive terminal of the speaker output on your amplifier is connected to the positive (red) wire of the RK5 speaker. Likewise, the negative terminal of the amplifier’s speaker output should be connected to the negative (black) wire of the RK5 speaker.
