CONNECTING THE SPEAKER
You need speaker wire (not supplied) to con-
nect the speaker to your receiver or amplifier.
We recommend you use wire that is color-cod-
ed or marked on one side. Use 18-gauge or
larger speaker wire for distances up to 50 feet.
For greater distances, use 16-gauge wire. Your
local Radio Shack store has a wide selection of
speaker wire.
Note
: For maximum bass response and the
best overall performance, be sure the polarities
match when you connect the speaker to the re-
ceiver or amplifier (positive to positive and neg-
ative to negative).
1. With the speaker in its appropriate loca-
tion, measure the distance from the
speaker to the receiver or amplifier. Then
route the proper length of speaker wire
from the speaker to the receiver or ampli-
fier.
Cautions:
• Avoid routing the speaker wire near
other electrical wires.
• Do not nail or staple the speaker wire.
2. Split apart 4 inches of speaker wire on
each end.
3. Strip
1
/
4
inch of insulation from each wire’s
end. Then twist the ends of the wire to
secure any loose strands.
4. While pressing and holding down the black
(negative) terminal tab on the back of the
speaker, insert one end of the negative
bare wire into the opening. Then release
the tab.
