Note

that

the

speaker

cord

has

two

wires.

The

wire

marked

with

a

stripe

or

a

red

collar

is

always

positive

(+),

and

the

plain

one

is

always

negative

(-).

These

correspond

to

the

positive

(red)

and

negative

(black)

terminals

on

the

backs

of

the

speakers.

Always

connect

each

wire

to

its

corresponding

terminal

(positive

to

positive,

negative

to

negative).

To

lengthen

the

supplied

speaker

cord,

splice

in

cord

of

similar

or

thicker

gauge.

Again,

be

sure

to

connect

positive

to

positive

and

negative

to

negative.

1.

Connect

the

positive

and

negative

wires

on

one

end

of

the

speaker

cord

to

the

corresponding

positive

and

negative

terminals

on

the

LEFT

speaker.

To

make

the

connection,

push

each

terminal

tab

down,

then

insert

the

end

of

the

Check

the

connections

to

be

sure

they

are

positive

to

positive

(+

to

+)

and

negative

to

negative

(-to-).

Make

sure

that

no

strands

of

wire

from

any

terminal

touch

any

other

terminal.

Bridged

wires

create

short

circuits

that

may
