Speaker Terminals 

Speaker wire can be inserted into the hole in the shaft of the centre and rear speaker’s connection 
terminals.  Simply strip away approximately 10mm of the wire jacket, unscrew the connection terminal, 
insert the wire through the hole in the shaft, and then tighten the terminal. Make sure all connections are 
tight and no stray wire strands touch the opposite terminal.  If a wire is loose, it can cause a crackling or 
static type sound that can be heard through the speaker. If it comes loose, it can cause your receiver to 
short circuit. 

 
Front Speaker Connections

 

On the back of the 2 front speakers are 2 push in connection terminals. Red is positive (+) and Black is 
negative (-). From your receiver’s positive terminal connect the speaker wire to the (+) mark which is the 
Red terminal on the speaker. Push the terminal in and insert the wire into the hole. Release the terminal 
and the wire is connected. Connect the negative (-) wire to the Black terminal. 

 
Centre Speaker / Wireless Transmitter 

On the back of the transmitter there are 3 sets of speaker connections. Look at the wiring diagram on 
page 3 for the connections. Connect speaker wire from your receiver’s surround speaker terminals and 
the centre speaker terminals to the left and right inputs and centre input on the transmitter. Please ensure 
that the left surround output goes to the left surround input and the same for the right side. Do the same 
with the centre speaker connection. . Make sure the po to + and - to - is correct. These are screw 
in terminals.  
 

Power Switch 

There is a 2 pin power socket on the right side of the centre/transmitter. Plug the power cable supplied in. 
There is a power switch. Turn this on and leave it on as this goes to standby when the system is not 
being used. 
 

Wireless Transmitter Controls 

There is 1 button on the rear panel of the transmitter. This is a channel button for the surrounds. This 
controls the frequency if you have interference with cordless hand phones, wireless internet or microwave 
ovens. 
    

Wireless Surround Speaker Connection

 

Plug the surround speakers into the power. Turn on the rear power switch and set the volume control at 
zero. This can be adjusted to fine tune later. When you are not using the system for a long period or go 
on holidays, turn the power switch to 

off

 on the back of each surround speaker. 

 
Wireless Transmitter Surround set up 

To get connected turn your receiver on and have a movie or music playing. If you have a setting called All 
Channel on your receiver, use this for the set up as it will give you sound in all the speakers. If you play a 
5.1 movie you may not get sound out of the wireless surround speakers unless the movie is producing 
sound from the surround speakers. 
 

Channel Change  

There are 8 channels available. If you get interference, press the channel button once, this takes you to 
the next channel. Press the channel button once and listen to see if the interference has gone. Keep 
going until all interference has been eliminated.

 

Play the system and listen to see if all the speakers are 

balanced.  This again is a once off setting unless you have a blackout. If the power has been 
disconnected you have to reset the channel.
