MAKING CONNECTIONS CONNECTING SPEAKERS For best results, use a matched pair of 8-ohm speakers. Caution: Before you make speaker connections, be sure the AC power cord is not plugged in. For speaker connections, use a speaker cable with a phono plug on one end and the appropriate connector on the other end. This connection depends on the type of speakers you have. Your local RadioShack store sells a variety of speaker cables and connectors for most types of speakers.

If the turntable has a separate ground wire (usually black or green), connect it to the amplifier’s PHONO GND screw. If you want to connect another sound source (such as a turntable) to the amplifier and record to the tape deck, connect the L and R TAPE OUT jacks to the tape deck’s AUX IN, LINE IN, or TAPE IN jacks.
