• A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. Cables are colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridge.
Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the “+” (red line) terminals of this unit and your speaker. Connect the plain cable to the “–” (white line)
terminals.
