Radio Shack 40-289 manual 2Connecting speaker wires, 1/4’’, Strip insulation, Split wire

2Connecting speaker wires

Connect the cable leads from the outputs on your amplifier to the input terminal posts on the rear of your loudspeaker cabinet. We recommend you use wire that is color-coded or otherwise marked on to help you connect the wire correctly.

1.Route the speaker wire to the speaker from the amplifier.

2.Separate about 4 inches of speaker wire at each end.

3.Using a wire stripper, remove about ¼ inch of insulation from each wire and twist the exposed ends.

4.Connect the positive marked (usually red) wire to a red speaker terminal by pressing the release tab. Insert the wire into the hole and release the tab. Repeat this procedure for the negative marked wire (usually black) and black terminal.
