WIRING INFO - 8 OHM OPERATION
Connecting the speaker
With power to the amplifier or receiver disconnected:
1. Strip 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm) off the end of the cable jacket. Then strip ½
inch (1.3 cm) of insulation off each wire.
2. Twist the wire strands together so there are no strands separated from the
bundle.
3. Connect the wires to the speaker terminals, being sure to observe proper
polarity. For standard speaker cable with red and black wires, connect the
red wire to the red positive (+) terminal and the black wire to the black
negative (–) terminal.
Note:
Some speaker cables may have other ways of designating polarity.
Cable with a clear jacket has a copper-colored wire for positive and a silver-
colored wire for negative. In a cable with white and black wires, the white is
positive and the black is negative. Cable with both wires the same color may
have grooves, ribs, or stripes on the positive wire.
4. Check to make sure there are no stray strands of wire outside the terminals.
If there are, remove the wire, twist the strands together, and reconnect the
wire to the terminal.
