E60 INSTALLATION MANUAL
You will need a wire that has at least two conductors; one that can be
identified as the positive and the other as the negative. All two conductor
wires have some means of identifying which conductor is which, but at
times this identification may be subtle. It’s crucial that you keep track of
which wire you use for positive (+) and negative (-). Typically if the wires
are colored red and black, the red wire is used for positive and the black
wire is used for negative, but sometimes other colors or patterns are
used. You can choose whichever color of wire you want to be positive and
negative as long as you remain consistent throughout the install.
On both your amplifier and your speaker the connectors will be identi-
fied as red for positive and black for negative. It is very important to look
carefully at the speaker wires and be certain that the same wire that is
attached to the positive connector in the amplifier is attached to the pos-
itive connector in the speaker.

2) Painting the Grille
In some situations the speak-
ers may look better if the color
matched the walls, ceiling, or
trim in the room. This can be ac-
complished by painting the grille.
The grille must be painted with
spray paint, and most hardware
stores will mix a can of paint to
match whatever color you need.
Before painting, carefully remove
the thin cloth on the underside of
the grille. Lightly spray the front
of the grille with the paint from
a distance, being careful not to
plug any of the holes. Diluting
the paint with paint thinner will lessen the risk of filling any holes. If
a hole gets plugged use a can of compressed air to open it. Once the
paint is dry, put the cloth back on the grille.
