Arrange the speakers in your TV room to achieve maximum sound quality.

When connecting the speaker wire, make sure you connect the positive

(+)terminal on the TV to the positive (+) terminal on the speaker. One side of the speaker wire is usually marked with a white stripe to help you match the terminals correctly. If the (+) and (-) terminals are not matched properly, the speakers will not be “in phase,” causing reduction in bass frequencies.

Do not allow the wire core to touch other wires or terminals. Damage to components could result if the cores of two wires touch.
