Figure 3. RS Series speakers feature color- coded terminals. This example shows the most common way of connecting speaker wire by directly inserting into terminals.

IMPORTANT!
WIRING THE SYSTEM
IMPORTANT: Make sure all equipment is turned off before making any connections.
For speaker connections, use #18 gauge speaker wire (or #16 for runs over 25 feet) with polarity coding. The side of the wire with a ridge or other coding is usually considered negative polarity (i.e.,
NOTE: If desired, consult your local Infinity dealer about speaker wire and connection options.
RS Series speakers have color coded terminals that accept a variety of wire connectors. The most common connection is shown in Figure 3.
To ensure proper polarity, connect each + terminal on the back of the amplifier, receiver, or television to the respective + (red) terminal on each speaker, as shown in Figure 4. Similarly, connect the - (black) terminals in the same way. Also, see the owner’s manuals that were included with your amplifier, receiver, or television to confirm connection procedures.
Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to - or - to +) when making connections. Doing so will
cause poor imaging and diminished bass response.
