To avoid short-circuiting the speakers

Short-circuiting of the speakers may damage the system. To prevent this, make sure to take the following precautions when connecting the speakers.

Make sure the stripped end of each speaker cord does not touch another speaker terminal or the stripped end of another speaker cord.

Examples of poor conditions of the speaker cord

Stripped speaker cord is touching another speaker terminal.

Stripped cords are touching each other due to excessive re- moval of insulation.

Note

Be sure to match the speaker cord to the appropriate terminal on the components: + to + and - to -. If the cords are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack of bass.

If you use front speakers with low maximum input rating, adjust the volume carefully to avoid excessive output on the speakers.
