SPEAKER CONNECTIONS
Separate and strip the ends of
the speaker wire as shown.
Speakers and amplifiers/
receivers have corresponding
(+) and (–) terminals. The (+)
lead of the speaker wire is
noted with a stripe. It is impor-

identically: (+) on the speaker
to (+) on the amplifier and (–) on
the speaker to (–) on the ampli-
fier. Wiring “out of phase”
results in thin sound, weak
bass and a poor stereo image.

Connect the remaining loud-

set-up menu, the Left/Right
front speakers must be
selected as "Large". All other
loudspeakers must be selected
as small.
