Before Use

Avoid damage to the speakers and other components:

• Carefully unbox the speakers carefully to avoid physically damaging your speakers.

• Use appropriate gauge wires (minimum of 14 gauge wire for runs up to 25 feet).

• Make sure wire polarity is connected correctly. Most speaker cables are coded for ease of use. Make

sure positive (red) connection on the ampliﬁer terminal is connected to the positive (red) on your

speakers. Follow the same instructions for the negative side. Strip o approximately 1/2”of the insulation

from the ends of the speaker cable, twist the bare strands and insert into the binding post.

• Ensure your equipment is turned o before connecting speakers.

• Check to ensure positive and negative wires are not touching each other once they’re connected to the

speaker terminals.

Most of the customers are connecting the speakers using a standard connection, but some customers prefer a

bi-wire or bi-amp connection of the speakers.

A standard speaker connection is shown in Fig.1. For a standard connection you need to keep the shorting bars

in place.

A bi-wire or bi-amp speaker connection is shown in Fig.2. For a bi-wire or bi-amp connection you need to re-

move both shorting bars.
