It is recommended that this speaker system be used with the grille

and press in firmly.

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

plug.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.
