Connect speakers

connection. To connect a speaker to your home
theater, match the color on the speaker cable to
the color on the connector.
Speaker position plays a critical role in setting up
a surround sound effect. For best effect, position
all the speakers towards the seating position and
place them close to your ear level (seated).
