16 Speaker binding post terminals. As with all speaker wiring, care must be taken to ensure no wires
can present short-circuit to the amplifier. Speaker wires carry high voltages. Therefore, care should
be taken to ensure no bare wires can be touched as this may result in an electric shock.
Refer to illustrations A through I on pages 3 and 4 for possible speaker connection schemes.
