ing posts for speaker wire connections. Prepare the Loud-
speaker Hookup Cables that attach to the Power Amplifier
Output Terminals:
Bare wire cable ends:
Carefully remove sufficient insulation from the cable
ends, refer to figures 20, 21 & 22. If the cable is
stranded, care-
fully twist the
strands to-
gether as
tightly as pos-
sible.
Note: If desired, the twisted ends can be tinned with
solder to keep the strands together and/or attach a
spade lug.
Spade lug or prepared wire connection:
Insert the spade lug connector or prepared section of
the cable end into the terminal side access hole, and
tighten the terminal cap until the cable is firmly
clamped into the terminal so the wires cannot slip out.
Refer to figures 23, 24 & 25.
