In many cases, the mark is a single stripe on the jacket of one of the connectors. In this
case the side with the stripe is generally
considered the positive side, but it really does not
matter as long as you are consistent and always
using the stripe as positive or always using it as
negative.
When you are ready to prepare your speaker
wires, first separate about 4" of wire, then strip
about 1/4" (6mm) insulation from the end and twist it to prevent stray strands. If you plan
to use banana or pin plugs (highly recommended), install the plugs on the wire.
PAINTING
The grille and frame can be painted to match your walls, making the speaker even less
noticeable. Perform the following steps to safely paint them without damaging the
speaker.
1.
Remove the center portion of the cardboard installation template/paint mask. The
central portion is the paint mask, while the outer portion is the installation
template.
2.
Completely remove the grille by inserting a paper clip or the included grille removal
tool into one of the holes and pulling to lift it off the frame.
