3. Choose the speaker cable that is labeled for the “Right” amplifier channel.
Connect one stripped end of the “Right” speaker cable coming from the amplifier
to the
RS8Si connection cable’s red wire. To connect the two wires, twist the
stripped ends of the wire together and screw down the wire nut on the twisted
wires. The material inside the wire nut will protect the stripped ends of the wire.
However, if added protection is desired, place a large amount of silicon sealant
so the bottom of the wire nut is encased and sealed. Pay attention to the
markings on the speaker cable. Each loudspeaker you connect must be
connected to the amplifier’s speaker wire in the same way.
4. Repeat step 3 with the
RS8Si connection cable’s black wire, that is in the same
conductor as the wire attached in step 3, and the other stripped amplifier “Right”
speaker cable’s conductor.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the “Left” speaker cable and the
RS8Si’s connection
cable with the “yellow/black” pair of conductors.
6. Connect the opposite end of the speaker cable to the amplifier or receiver. Start
by performing step 1 and 2 on the speaker cable near the amplifier. Pay attention
to the markings on the speaker cable conductor. Use the cable labeled
“Right”and attach the same conductor you attached to the red loudspeaker wire
to the positive (red) or (+) “Right” amplifier output terminal. Attach the other
conductor in that cable to the amplifier’s “Right” negative (black) or (–) amplifier
output terminal.
7. Using the cable labeled “Left” attach the same conductor you attached to the
yellow loudspeaker wire to the positive (red) or (+) “Left” amplifier output
terminal. Attach the other conductor in that cable to the amplifier’s “Left”
negative (black) or (–) amplifier output terminal.
Connecting the loudspeaker in two-speaker stereo mode
1. Strip two to three inches of the speaker cables’ outer jacket away from the
insulated conductors. Ensure that at least two inches of the separate conductors
are free. Do this on both loudspeaker connection cables.
2. Strip one half inch of insulation from the end of each conductor as show in
Figure 6 for both connection cables.
