IMPORTANT: Make sure that all equipment is turned off before making 
any connections.

For speaker connections, use a minimum #16-gauge speaker wire with 
polarity coding.The side of the wire with a ridge or other coding is usually 
considered positive polarity (i.e., +).

NOTE:

 If you are unsure about the proper wire to use, consult your local 

Infinity dealer about speaker wire and connection options.

The speakers have coded terminals that accept a variety of wire 
connectors. Figure 5 shows the most common connection.

 This example shows how to connect bare wires to the terminals.

To ensure proper polarity, connect each + terminal on the back of the 
amplifier or receiver to the resp (red) terminal on each speaker, 
as shown in Figure 6. Connect the – (black) terminals in a similar way. 
See the owner’s guides that were included with your amplifier, receiver 
and television to confirm connection procedures.

IMPORTANT: Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to – or – to +) when 
making connections. Doing so will cause poor imaging and diminished 
bass response.

DJUSTMENT

Check the speakers for playback, first by setting the system volume control 
to a minimum level and then by applying power to your audio system. 
Play a favorite music or video segment, and increase the system volume 
control to a comfortable level.

NOTE: 

You should hear balanced audio reproduction across the entire 

frequency spectrum, from high tones to deep bass. If not, check all wiring 
connections or consult the authorized Infinity dealer from whom you 
purchased the system.

A number of different factors – including the room’s size and shape, 
the construction materials used to build the room, the listener’s position 
relative to the speakers, and the position of the speakers in the room – 
will affect the amount of bass you hear and the stereo-image quality (the 
placement of sounds in space). Listen to a variety of music selections and 
note the bass level. If there is too much bass, move the speakers away 
from nearby walls. Conversely, if you place the speakers closer to the 
walls, you should hear more bass.

Nearby reflecting surfaces can adversely affect stereo-imaging quality. 
If they do, try angling the speakers slightly inward toward the listening 
position until you achieve the best possible sound.

Each Primus series cabinet has a wood-grain vinyl finish that does not 
require any routine maintenance. You may use a soft cloth to remove any 
fingerprints or dust. Clean the grille by gentle vacuuming.

NOTE:

 Do not use any cleaning products or polishes on the cabinet or 

grille.

If your Infinity speaker needs service, contact your Infinity dealer or 
distributor, or visit www.infinitysystems.com for the location of the nearest 
service center.
