IMPORTANT: Make sure all equipment is turned off before making any
connections.
For speaker connections, use a minimum #16-gauge speaker wire with
polarity coding. The side of the wire with a ridge or other coding is
usually considered positive polarity (i.e., +).
NOTE: If desired, consult your local Infinity dealer about speaker wire and
connection options.
The speakers have coded terminals that accept a variety of wire connec-
tors. The most common connection is shown in Figure 5.
To ensure proper polarity, connect each + terminal on the back of the
amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on each speaker,
as shown in Figure 6. Connect the – (black) terminals in a similar way.
See the owner’s guides that were included with your amplifier, receiver
and television to confirm connection procedures.
IMPORTANT: Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to –, or – to +) when
making connections. Doing so will cause poor imaging and diminished
bass response.

C336
The outer connection panel and internal dividing network of the C336 is
designed so that separate sets of speaker cables can be attached to the low-
frequency transducer and midrange/high-frequency transducer portions of this
dividing network.This is called bi-wiring. Bi-wiring can provide several sonic
advantages and considerably more flexibility in power amplifier selection.
