Connect Speakers to Jack Panel Extension Cable
The front, center, and rear speaker wires must be soldered to the back of the jack panel extension cable that came attached to the audio/video component cabinet. Be sure the speaker wires are long enough to solder the wires to the jack panel extension cable before placing the audio/video component cabinet in its opening.
Important Note: When soldering speaker wires, strip about one inch of insulation off the wire. Then wrap the wire at least one and a half times around the terminal before soldering.
Caution: Do not let the bare wires touch each other. This will cause damage to the audio/video receiver.
➤Wire Front, Rear, and Center Speakers
When installing speakers and connecting components, be sure to label or make note of how wires are connected. The wires usually can be distinguished by the texture of their cover (either ribbed or smooth) or the marking on their cover (marked with a + or unmarked). Use ribbed or + marked wire for positive (+) connections and smooth or unmarked wire for negative
❑1. Cut and label wires for the front and center speakers.
•The front R and L speakers will require approximately eight feet of wire.
•The center speaker will require approximately 12 feet of wire.
•Speaker wire should have already been run by the builder from the rear speaker location to the back of the audio/video cabinet.
❑2. Solder each wire to the corresponding terminal on the back of the jack panel extension cable.
