CONNECTION

Your speakers are equipped with binding posts that can be used with pin connectors

or bare wire. Refer to the diagram at right and using high-quality speaker cable (see

your dealer), connect one speaker at a time to your receiver/amplifier. Connect the red

(+) amplifier terminal to the red (+) speaker terminal and the black (–) to the black

(–) (see below). Push binding posts to secure.

Turn your amplifier on and listen to your speakers. If you notice a complete lack of mid-

bass and a dislocated image, one or more of your speakers may be connected out-

of-phase (their polarity is reversed). Re-check to ensure that each speaker’s cable is

connected with correct polarity: red (+) to red (+) and black (–) to black (–). Make sure

wires are firmly fastened. Push binding posts to secure.
