SPEAKER CONNECTIONS

CONNECTION TIPS

Speakers and electronics ter- minals have corresponding positive (+) and negative (–) ter- minals. It is important to con- nect both speakers identically: positive (+) on the speaker

to positive (+) on the amplifier and negative (–) on the speaker to negative (–) on the amplifier. Wiring “out of phase” results in thin sound, weak bass and a poor stereo image.

With the advent of multichannel surround sound systems, con- necting all of the speakers in your system with the correct polarity remains as important as ever in order to preserve the proper ambience and direction-

ality of the program material.

To use the binding-post speaker terminals, unscrew the colored collar until the pass-through hole in the center post is visible under the collar. Insert the bare end of the wire through this hole; then screw the collar down until the connection is tight.

The hole in the center of each collar is intended for use with banana-type connectors. To comply with European CE certification, these holes are blocked with plastic inserts at the point of manufacture.To use banana-type connectors requires the removal of the inserts. Do not remove these inserts if you are using the product in an area covered by the European CE certification.
