Connecting the Speakers

Read the following before connecting your speakers:

• Turn off your amp before making any connections.

• The nominal impedance of these speakers is 8 Ω. Use

only an amp that supports this impedance.

• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. Connect

positive (+) terminals to only positive (+) terminals,

and negative (–) terminals to only negative (–) termi-

nals. If the speakers are wired incorrectly, the sound
