System Hookup
The AV receiver’s positive (+) speaker terminals are
color-coded for easy 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.
