The speakers are connected to the CAV6.6
using modular snap speaker connectors. Each
of these color coded connectors is designated
for the speaker set of a particular amplified
zone. To avoid confusion, connect one zone
speaker set at a time starting with Zone 1, tak-
ing care to keep zone and speaker wire identi-
ties straight. Note: An 8 Ohm minimum speaker
is required for each amplified output.

1. Pull the speaker wire conductors apart so
they’re separated for the first two inches from
their ends.

2. Using a wire stripper, remove 1/4 inch of
insulation from each conductor. Twist the
strands in each conductor into tight spirals.

3. Remove the modular four-color connector for
Zone 1. The color code is as follows:

WHITE -- L+ (left channel positive)

GREEN -- L- (left channel negative)

BLACK -- R- (right channel negative)

RED -- R+ (right channel positive)

Lift the black lever for each connection until it
locks open and insert the proper speaker
wire, matching channel and polarity for all
four wires. Snap the lever down. Insert the
modular connector into its designated output
on the back of the CAV6.6.

4. Complete the same steps for the remaining
zones. Label each set of speaker wires with
the zone and location.
