Once you’ve positioned the speakers, you’ll need to cut the 25-
meter (82 ft.) speaker cable to make three cables for 
connecting the front/center speaker and two cables for the 
surround speakers.

1

Cut the included speaker cable to suitable lengths 
for the front/center speaker and surround speakers. 
You need five cables.

2

Remove about 10 mm (3/8") of insulation from the 
end of each speaker cable.

3

Twist the bare wires tightly.

Notes 

• Make the speaker cables as short as possible. Do not bundle 

or roll up excess cable.

• Twist the bare wires tightly so the individual strands are not 

splayed.

• Be careful not to injure yourself while preparing the speaker 

cables.

4

Connect the speaker cables to the front/center 
speaker (NS-BR300) and surround speakers 
(NS-B285). 

Attaching the speaker stands

• Surround speakers (NS-B285)

Attach the included speaker stands with screws when placing 
the surround speakers on a flat surface, as shown below.

• Front/center speaker (NS-BR300)

If you place the front/center speaker (NS-BR300) at the base of 
your TV, attach the included stands. If you use it without the 
stands, affix the included non-skid pads.
