Connecting, speaker

Page 5 highlights

Connecting the speaker NOTE: Before making any connections, turn off your receiver and/or amplifier and unplug it from the AC power (mains) outlet. About the cord and how to insert it Use of the proper gauge (thickness) of speaker wire is important. For most applications, you can use standard zip cord (2 conductor, 18- gauge wire found at electrical and hardware stores). Use enough cord to reach between the speaker and the receiver. The cord consists of two insulated wires. The insulation around one of the wires is striped, collared, or ribbed. This marked wire is always positive (+) and the plain one is always negative (-). These correspond to the positive (red) and negative (black) terminals on the back of the speaker. Be sure to connect each wire to the proper terminal (positive to positive, negative to negative).
