Next, stand the pillar upright and fit the bottom of the pillar into the

stand base, making sure that the pillar is aligned with the hole in

the stand base.

• When fitting the pillar into the stand base, make sure that the

speaker cable comes through the groove on the bottom of the

pillar and does not get pinched between the pillar and the stand

base.

• Make sure not to scratch the surface of the stand base with the

pillar, as the decorative laminate of the stand base may scar

easily.

(+) and black is negative (–).

Changing the Speaker Height

When changing the height of the speakers, reassemble the stand

while referring to step 3 through 6 of “Assembling the Speaker

Stand.”

• Do not attempt to adjust the speaker height while the stand is

upright. This could cause the speaker to fall, resulting in

damage or personal injury.

3 Connect the other ends of the cables to the amp's speaker

output terminals (for more details, refer to your amp owner's

manual).

• Grasp the cap knobs on the lower input terminals and rotate

them to the left (counter-clockwise), insert the speaker cable

wires into the holes in the terminal posts, then tighten the

knobs to secure the wires.

• You can also connect the stand base’s terminals with a banana

plug. When using a banana plug, be sure to remove the cap at

the tip of the input terminal.

• If the cables’ wires happen to be pushed out of the terminals,

allowing the wires to come into contact with each other, it

places an excessive additional load on the amp. This may cause

the amp to stop functioning, and may even damage the amp.

• After connecting the plugs, pull lightly on the cables to make

sure that the ends of the cables are securely connected to the

terminals. Poor connections can create noise and interruptions

in the sound.

• When using a set of speakers connected to an amplifier, you

won't be able to obtain the normal stereo effect if the polarity

(+ , –) of one of the speakers (left or right) is reversed.
