3. A connector comprising two terminals is located on the
back side of each speaker, to which you have to connect the
speaker cables.
The terminal clips are each marked red (+) and black (-).
Make sure the polarity is correct!
Connect the like coloured terminals. Otherwise the
sound quality will suffer.
The speaker connections of your amplifi er/AV receiver or
multi-channel active subwoofer
should be marked similarly.
The strands of the speaker cables are marked with different
colours or shapes.
4. Split the single wire down to approx. 30 mm on both ends
and strip approx. 10 mm of insulation off of each cord.
5. Twist the stripped single wire ends together so that no wire
protrudes. Tin coating is not necessary.
6. Turn the connector terminal counterclockwise until loose.

Problem Possible cause Solution
Playback is noisy.
In general, the speakers are very low-noise.
In most cases, the speaker system with
exceptional resolution in the high range
area can expose the poor quality of a signal
source (e.g. from MP3 fi les).
Ensure that the source is sending a clear signal.
The sound seems dull. The speakers have been connected with the
wrong poles.
Verify the correct connection of the cables for all speakers.
