2 Connecting speaker wires
Connect the cable leads from the outputs on your
amplifier to the input terminal posts on the rear of
your loudspeaker cabinet. We recommend you use
wire that is color-coded or otherwise marked on to
help you connect the wire correctly.
1. Route the speaker wire to the speaker from the
amplifier.
2. Separate about 4 inches of speaker wire at each
end.
3. Using a wire stripper, remove about ¼ inch of
insulation from each wire and twist the exposed
ends.
4. Connect the positive marked (usually red) wire
to a red speaker terminal by pressing the release
tab. Insert the wire into the hole and release
the tab. Repeat this procedure for the negative
marked wire (usually black) and black terminal.
