CENTER AND SATELLITE SPEAKER CONNECTIONS

After placing the speakers,you are ready to connect your system.

First,turn off all audio-system power.Use high-quality speaker

wire to make your connections.#18-gauge speaker wire with

polarity coding is included.For longer distances, #16-gauge or

heavier wire is recommended.The side of the wire with a ridge

orother coding is usually considered positive polarity (i.e.,+).

Also,consult the owner’s manuals that were included with your

amplifier or receiver to confirm connection procedures.

Observe polarities when making speaker connections,as shown

in Figure 4.Connect each + terminal on the back of the

amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on each

speaker.Connect the – (black) terminals in the same way.

Important!

Do not reverse polarities (i.e.,+ to –,or – to +) when making

connections.Doing so will cause poor imaging and diminished

bass response.Be certain that positive and negative wire strands

arecompletely isolated to avoid shortcircuits that maydamage

your equipment.

Observe polarities when making speaker connections,as shown in

Figure 5.Connect each + terminal on the back of the amplifier or

receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on the speaker.

Connect the – (black) terminals in the same way.

Important!

Donot reverse polarities (i.e.,+ to –,or – to +) when making

connections.Be certain that positive and negative wire strands

are completely isolated to avoid short circuits that may damage

your equipment.

Figure 5.The satellites and center channel speaker feature

terminals that can be connected in several different ways–

e.g.,

spade terminals and direct wiring (as shown here).

for one channel of a home theater system.
