some indicator (such as color-coding, ribbing or writing) on one of the two
conductors to help you maintain consistency. It is essential to connect both
speakers to the amplifier in the same way (in phase). If you experience a lack
of bass, it is likely that one speaker is out of phase with the other and needs to be
rewired paying closer attention to connect positive to positive; negative to negative
on both channels.
To connect wire to the binding post [see figure above], unscrew the hex nut
and insert the bare wire into the hole near the base of the binding post. Do not
insert the insulated part of the wire into the hole as this will not give you a good
connection. Twist the hex nut back down the binding post until it firmly meets
the wire. Do not over tighten.
Connecting Mythos STS to a Multi-Channel
Home Theater System
Your Mythos STSs have a set of speaker level (high level) 5-way binding post
speaker inputs to feed in the left and right channel signals plus an LFE input to
separately feed the discrete “Low Frequency Effects” channel into each subwoofer.
Unlike a conventional system, where the subwoofer is driven only by an LFE
subwoofer signal, the Mythos STSs are much more sophisticated and can play
by the left and right channel bass signal as well as the LFE signal. For optimum
performance, please fully read and closely follow the directions in this manual.

inch (12.7mm) of insulation from each of the two conductors
of the speaker wire to expose the bare metal and twist each of the individual
conductors into single unfrayed strands. Connect the left front channel red (+)
terminal of your receiver or amplifier to the red marked (+) terminal of your left
loudspeaker and the left front channel black marked (-) terminal of your receiver or
amplifier to the black (-) terminal of your left loudspeaker. Connect the right
channel main/front channel red (+) terminal of your amplifier or receiver to the red
(+) terminal of your right loudspeaker and the black (-) terminal of the right
main/front channel of your receiver or amplifier to the black (-) terminal of your
right loudspeaker. Most speaker wire has some indicator (such as color-coding,
ribbing or writing) on one of the two conductors to help you maintain consistency. It
is essential to connect both speakers to the amplifier in the same way (in phase). If
you experience a lack of bass, it is likely that one speaker is out of phase with the
other and needs to be rewired paying closer attention to connect positive to positive;
