1. Remove the inner cardboard disc from

the hole.

2 Connect to your amplifier
1. Route the speaker wire from your amplifier to the
speaker. Avoid routing near existing electrical wires and do not nail or staple the wire.
2. Separate about 4 inches (100
mm) of wire at each end.
3. Using a wire stripper, remove
about 1/4 inch (6 mm) of insulation from each wire. Then twist the ends of each wire.
4. Connect the positive (marked) wire to the red speaker
terminal by pressing the tab, inserting the wire into the hole, and releasing the tab. Repeat this procedure to connect the negative (unmarked) wire to the black terminal.
6. Connect the wire coming from the red terminal to your
amplifier’s positive (+) terminal. Connect the wire from the black terminal to your amplifier’s negative (–) terminal.

3. Before you paint the frame, insert the supplied
cardboard paint mask to prevent paint from entering the speaker.
4. After the paint is dry, remove the paint mask, replace
the dust cloth, and reinstall the grille.
