Speaker Connections
CAUTIOn: Before making speaker connections, be sure that your receiver or amplifier is
turned OFF and its AC cord is unplugged from the AC power outlet.
Speakers and receivers/amplifiers have corresponding ( + ) and ( – ) connection terminals.
Most electronics makers, including harman kardon engineers, use red to denote the
( + ) terminal and black for the ( – ) terminal. newer harman kardon receivers conform to
the CeA standard and therefore use a colour other than red to denote the ( + ) terminal for
some speaker positions. See the table in Colour-Coding System , on page 5.
each speaker wire included with your system has coloured bands at both ends of the
( + ) conductor, and the subwoofer cable has purple connectors that correspond to the
colour of the HKTS 210SUB’s lFe jack. This system helps ensure that the speaker in each
location is connected to the correct receiver or amplifier terminals. In addition to the
coloured bands at each end, each speaker wire’s ( + ) terminal has ribs moulded into its
insulation to help you identify it.
It is very important to connect each speaker identically: ( + ) on the speaker to ( + ) on the
receiver or amplifier, and ( – ) on the speaker to ( – ) on the receiver or amplifier. Miswiring
one or more speakers results in thin sound, weak bass and a poor stereo image. With the
advent of multichannel surround-sound systems, connecting all of the speakers in your
system correctly is very important to achieving the proper ambience and directionality of
the program material.
To connect the speaker wire to the terminals on the satellite and centre speakers, press
down on the top of the terminal to open the connection hole, insert the wire’s bare end
all the way into the hole, and release the terminal to secure the wire. Insert the conductor
with the coloured band into the speaker’s red ( + ) terminal, and insert the other conductor
into the speaker’s black ( – ) terminal, as shown in the illustration.

or amplifier.
