Attaching the Speaker Labels
The DTR-8.4’s positive (+) speaker terminals are color-
coded for ease of identification. (The negative (–)
speaker terminals are all black.)
The supplied speaker labels are also color-coded and you
should attach them to the positive (+) side of each
speaker cable in accordance with the above table. All
you need to do then is to match the color of each label to
the corresponding speaker terminal.
Connecting the Speaker Cables
The following illustration shows which speaker should be connected to each pair of terminals.
