Twist the single wire so that no strands are protruding. • Turn the connector terminal counterclockwise until loose. Run the stripped cable into the hole that is now visible. Turn the terminal clockwise until closed. The cable has now been clamped into place. • Connect all cables to the speakers in this way. • Connect the speaker cables to your AV receiver.
