CONNECTING THE SPEAKER
You need speaker wire (not supplied) to connect the speaker to your receiver or amplifier. We recommend you use wire that is color-cod- ed or marked on one side. Use 18-gauge or larger speaker wire for distances up to 50 feet. For greater distances, use 16-gauge wire. Your local Radio Shack store has a wide selection of speaker wire.
Note: For maximum bass response and the best overall performance, be sure the polarities match when you connect the speaker to the receiver or amplifier (positive to positive and negative to negative).
1.With the speaker in its appropriate location, measure the distance from the speaker to the receiver or amplifier. Then route the proper length of speaker wire from the speaker to the receiver or amplifier.
Cautions:
•Avoid routing the speaker wire near other electrical wires.
•Do not nail or staple the speaker wire.
2.Split apart 4 inches of speaker wire on each end.
3.Strip 1/4 inch of insulation from each wire’s end. Then twist the ends of the wire to secure any loose strands.

5.Repeat Step 4 to insert one end of the positive bare wire into the red (positive) terminal on the back of the speaker.
6.Using the wire’s color coding as a guide, insert the other end of the negative bare wire into your receiver or amplifier’s negative (–) speaker terminal.
7.Repeat Step 6 to connect the other end of the positive bare wire into your receiver or amplifier’s positive (+) speaker terminal.
8.You can place the speaker on a desk, shelf, or table. You can also hang it on a wall using the keyhole slot on the back of the speaker.
