Connections
CAUTION: Before making any connections to the BDS receiver, ensure that the
receiver’s AC cord is unplugged from the receiver and the AC outlet. Making
speaker connections with the receiver plugged in and turned on could damage
the speakers.
Speakers and receivers/amplifiers have corresponding (+) and (–) connection terminals.
Most speakers use red to denote the (+) terminal and black for the (–) terminal.
The BDS receiver uses white to denote the left channel (+) terminal and red for the
right channel (+) terminal. Black is used to denote the (–) terminal of both channels.
The BDS receiver uses the following colors to denote the (+) terminals of the various
channels:
Front Left (+): White Surround Left (+): Blue
Front Right (+): Red Surround Right (+): Gray
Center (+): Green
Black is used to denote the (–) terminals of all channels on the BDS receiver.
Be sure to connect each speaker identically: (+) on the speaker to (+) on the receiver
or amplifier, and (–) on the speaker to (–) on the receiver or amplifier. Miswiring one or
more speakers results in thin sound, weak bass and a poor stereo image.
CAUTION: Make sure the (+) and (–) bare wires do not touch each other or the
other terminal. Touching wires can cause a short circuit that can damage your
receiver or amplifier.
