Color-coded wires have stripes running down one side of the conductor’s insulation, marked wires have ridges running along one side of the conductor’s insulation.

Cautions:

•Do not exceed the speaker’s maximum power rating of 80 watts.

•To avoid damage to the speaker or amplifier/receiver, turn off the amplifier/ receiver before making the connections.

1.Select a mounting location for the speaker that can withstand the speaker’s weight and vibration.

2.Measure the distance from the speaker to the amplifier/receiver. For distances of 25 feet or less, use 18-gauge speaker wire or ordinary lamp cord. For distances greater than 25 feet, use heavier 16-gauge wire.

3.With the speaker near the selected location, run speaker wire from the speaker to the receiver/amplifier.

4.Separate the conductors for a length of about two inches on the end of each wire, then strip 1/2 inch of insulation from the end of each conductor and twist the wire ends.

5.Push the black (negative) and red (positive) terminal on the speaker.

6.Insert the stripped wire ends into the holes in the terminals.

7.Connect the other ends of the wires to the matching terminals (negative and positive) on the receiver/amplifier.

Mounting

You can mount your speaker on a wall or the ceiling using the supplied mounting brackets and two screws (not supplied). Use screws with heads at least 1/4 inch in diameter for the speaker.

1. Use the brackets to mark the locations of the bracket’s keyhole slots on the mounting surface.

2. Drive two screws into the mounting surface

at the marked

locations, leaving about 3/16 inch of the screw’s threads exposed.

Note: Plaster, concrete, and very thin surfaces require expansion anchors or bolts for secure mounting.
