back of the speaker. For input terminal polarity, red is

positive (+) and black is negative (–).

Loosen the knobs on the input terminals and insert the speaker

cable wires into each of the terminal post holes, then tighten the

knobs.

• Magnets are used for holding the grille in place. Do not place

the grilles near devices that may be susceptible to magnetic

influence (CRT televisions, etc.).

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

speaker

output terminals (for more details, refer to your amp

instruction manual).

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

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

the tip of the input terminal.

• 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.
