the two conductors to help maintain consis-

t e n c y. If your speakers sound “thin” with little bass and little to no center image, odds are that one of the speaker wires is connected backwards. Double check all connections.

Strip 1/2" of insulation from each of the two conductors on both ends to expose the bare wire. Twist the exposed wire of each conduc- tor to form two unfrayed strands. Connect two conductors to the receiver or amp (refer to the owner’s manual supplied with your electronics for assistance with proper hookup). Connect the two conductors on the other end of the wire to the speaker terminals.

USING PUSH-TAB CONNECTORS (PSW50 AND M2)

Push the plastic tab of one connector to open the hole. Insert the bare wire into the hole, and release the plastic tab. Repeat this step for the other terminal. Make sure that the two bare wire ends do not touch each other. Such an electrical short will cause your receiver or amplifier to turn off or malfunction.

USING 5-WAY BINDING POSTS (RM2000II, RM2500C AND PSW300)

To connect wire to the binding post, unscrew the plastic hex nut on the binding post and insert the bare wire into the hole near the base of the binding post. Do not insert the insulated part of the wire into the hole as this will not give you a good connection. Twist the hex nut back down the binding

C O N E C TANDO LOS ALT O PARLANTES AL SISTEMA – GENERAL

Utilice dos cables para altoparlantes de calibre 18 o más gruesos. Mida la suficiente cantidad de cable para alcanzar desde su amplificador o receptor hasta cada uno de los altoparlantes. No se olvide considerar el cable adicional que se necesita para rodear las puertas y ventanas. Deje aproximada- mente 12 pulgadas(30cm) adicionales para poder mover los altoparlantes sin tener que desconectar los cables.

Fíjese que una de las terminales en la parte posterior del altoparlante es roja e identifi- cada como (+) y la otra es negra (-).

Asegúrese de conectar el cable de la terminal roja (+) de su amplificador a la terminal roja (+) de su altoparlante, y el cable de la terminal negra (-) de su amplificador, a la terminal negra (-) de su altoparlante (Figura 7). La mayoría de los cables tienen algún método de identificación (codificado por colores, estrías o letras) en uno de los conductores, lo cual le ayudará a mantener consistencia. Si su altoparlante suena “delgado” con poco sonido de bajos y sin imagen central, probablemente uno de los cables del altoparlante está conectado al revés. Verifique todas las conexiones.

Pele 1/2 pulgada del material aislante de los extremos de cada uno de los conductores para exponer el alambre. Tuerza el alambre expuesto hasta que queden dos hebras enteras. Conecte los dos conductores al receptor o amplificador (consulte con el manual de propietario de su equipo elec- trónico para obtener ayuda con la conexión). Conecte el otro extremo de los conductores a las terminales del altoparlante.
