Wiring the Speakers

Note: To ensure strong connections, we recommend using 

a crimping tool where wires feed into the Terminal Clips (7 

and 8) and Butt Connector (6). 

Fig. 1.

1.  Cut the 4' Speaker Wire (4) into four equal sections and 

  split the ends.

2.  Using electrician’s pliers or a wire stripper, remove about 

  1/2" of the plastic sheath at the ends of the wires.

3.  For each speaker, carefully follow the Wiring Diagram 

  on Page 4 to connect one section of Speaker Wire (4) to 

  the Woofer (1) and one to the Tweeter (2).

 A.  The red-striped wires should be connected to 

    positive (+) terminals and the unmarked wires 

    to negative (-) terminals.

 B.  To make the connections, you will feed the wires into 

    Terminal Clips (7 and 8) and use a crimping tool to 

    join the two. The Terminal Clips (7 and 8) then slide 

    onto tabs on the speaker components. Use Large 

    Terminal Clips (8) for both wires to the Woofer (1) 

    and for the positive wire to the Tweeter (2). Use a 

    Small Terminal Clip (7) for the negative wire to 

    the Tweeter (2).

4.  Using the #6 x 5/8” screws (9), mount the Woofer (1) 

  and Tweeter (2) to the speaker box. Feed the wires 

  through the opening for the Terminal Cup (3) in 

  the back of the box.

5.  Insert the positive wire coming from the Tweeter (2) 

  into one end of the Butt Connector (6) and crimp to join. 

  Double over the wire at one end of the Capacitor (5), 

  insert it into the other end of the Butt  Connector (6) and 

  crimp to join. 

Fig. 2.

6.  Carefully following the Wiring Diagram, connect the 

  wires from the Woofer (1) and Tweeter (2) to the 

  Terminal Cup (3).

 A.  Feed the negative wires coming from the Woofer (1) 

    and Tweeter (2) into a Large Terminal Clip (8) and 

    crimp to join. Slide the Large Terminal Clip (8) onto 

    the negative tab on the Terminal Cup (3).

 B.  Feed the positive wire from the Woofer (1) and the 

    single wire from the Capacitor (5) into a Large 

    Terminal Clip (8) and crimp to join. Slide the Large 

    Terminal Clip (8) onto the positive tab on the 

    Terminal Cup (3).

7.  Using the #6 x 5/8" screws (9), mount the Terminal 

  Cup (3) to the speaker box.
