Setting Up

Speaker connections

With your speakers in their chosen locations, connect them to the receiver.

Choosing the wire

It is important to use the right thickness of speaker wire. For distances of up to 30 feet (9 m),

18 gauge (.075 mm

) 2-conductor wire works well. For distances greater than 30 feet (9 m),

refer to the wire recommendations chart on page 18.

Note: To determine if this wire is suitable for use in a wall or under a ﬂoor, check your local build-

ing codes. You may want to contact a qualiﬁed electrical installer for this information.

Preparing the speaker wires

Examine the speaker wire. Note that it is actually a pair of insulated wires that may be gently

pulled apart. The insulation around one wire is marked with a stripe, collar, rib, groove, or

printing. Use the marked wire as positive (+) and the unmarked wire as negative (-). These

wires correspond to the positive and negative terminals on the speaker and receiver.

Note: It may be difﬁcult to distinguish wire markings. Inspect both wires carefully.

To prepare the ends of each wire:

1. Strip approximately

inch (12 mm) of insulation from both wires.

2. Twist the bare ends of each stranded wire, to prevent strands from touching across

terminals.

Connecting the speakers

CAUTION: Before making any connections, turn off your receiver and unplug it from the AC

(mains) power outlet. Not doing this may result in damage to your system.

Speaker terminals are located on the bottom of each speaker. Unscrew the knurled nut on

each terminal and remove one washer. Wrap one bare wire end around the terminal post.

Then, replace the metal washer on the screw post and screw the knurled nut ﬁrmly back on.

1. Connect one wire pair to the right speaker (the one on your right as you face it).

a. Attach the marked wire at one end to the positive (+) terminal.

b. Attach the plain wire at that end to the negative (-) terminal.

2. Connect the other ends of the same wire pair to the RIGHT SPEAKER OUTPUT of your

receiver.

a. Attach the marked wire to the positive (+) terminal.

b. Attach the plain wire to the negative (-) terminal.

3. Following the steps above, connect the second pair of wires to the left speaker and to the

LEFT SPEAKER OUTPUT on the receiver.

Note: If your receiver offers a choice of output impedances, use the terminal marked 8 or 8

ohms.
