After placing the speakers, you are ready to connect your system. First turn off all audio system
power. Use high-quality speaker wire to make your connections. For speaker connections, use
#18 gauge speaker wire (or #16 for runs over 25 feet) with polarity coding. The side of the wire
with a ridge or other coding is usually considered negative polarity (i.e., – ). Also, consult the
owner’s manuals that were included with your amplifier, receiver, or television to confirm
connection procedures.
If your system includes a Dolby ® Surround Pro Logic ® or AC-3 ® preamplifier or A/V
receiver, set the center-channel mode to NORMAL. This will route the low frequencies
(below 100Hz) away from the center-channel speaker to the front left and right speakers.
Observe polarities when making speaker connections, as shown in Figures 6 and 7 below.
Connect each + terminal on the back of the amplifier, receiver, or television to the respective
+ (red) terminal on each OVTR 1 speaker. Similarly, connect the (black) terminals in the same way.
Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to - or - to +) when making connections. Doing so will cause
poor imaging and diminished bass response.
