Before making connections, make sure that
the amplifier is switched off.
CONNECTIONS
• Connect the screw-type input terminals at the rear of the
speaker to the speaker output terminals of the amplifier
(or receiver) with the speaker cable.
• Connect the (+) terminals on the amplifier (or receiver)
and the speaker using one side of the cable. Connect the
(–) terminals on both components using the other side of
the cable.
• Connect the speaker to the center terminals of the
amplifier (or receiver) making sure not to reverse the
polarity (+, –). If the speaker is connected with reversed
polarity, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.
How to Connect:
1 Remove the insulation coating at the extremity of each
speaker cable by twisting the coating off.
2 Loosen the terminal knob.
3 Insert the bare wire.
4 Tighten the knob and secure the cable. Test the
firmness of the connection by pulling lightly on the
cable at the terminal.
Note
Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other as this could
damage the speaker or the amplifier, or both of them.
[Using a Banana Plug]
1 Remove the cover by pulling it toward you.
2 Tighten the terminal knob.
3
Simply insert the banana plug into the terminal.
The front cover is fastened to the enclosure at four points
and can be removed if desired. To remove the cover, hold
on to both sides and slowly pull straight away from the
speaker. To reattach, line up the four pegs on the inside
surface of the cover with the four corresponding holes on
the speaker and push gently.
Note
When the cover is removed, take care not to touch the speaker
units with your hands or to exert excessive force with tools.
