The positive ( +) wire will be indicated by one of the following: • Ribbed surface • Red collar • Stripe The solid wire is negative (-). The positive and negative wires correspond respectively to the positive (red) and negative (black) terminals on the backs of the cube arrays and the Acoustimass hack module (Figure 5). The wires should always be connected to their corresponding terminals, positive to positive, negative to negative. a. Connect the end of one speaker cable to the terminals on the rear of the right cube array, and the other end of the cable to the OUTPUT terminals on the rear of the Acoustimass bass module marked TO RIGHT CUBE ARRAY. To do so. simply push each terminal tab down, insert the end of the appropriate wire into the exposed hole, and release the tab to secure the wire into place (see Figure 4). b. Repeat to conned the left cube array to the OUTPUT terminal on the Acoustimass bass module marked TO LEFT CUBE ARRAY. c. Check all your connections to make sure they are wired positive to positive( + to + ) and negative to negative(- to -). Incorrect wiring will affect the stereo image. Also, check to make sure that no strands of wire from any terminal are brushing against any other terminal.
