WARNING:

* Each speaker weighs 1.7 kg (3 lbs. 12 oz.). Do not

mount them on thin plywood or soft wall surface material,
as the screws may come out of the flimsy surface,
causing the speakers to fall down and be damaged, or
result in personal injury.

* Do not fasten the speakers to wall with nails, adhesives,

or other unsound hardware. Long-term use and
vibrations may cause them to fall down.

* To avoid accidents resulting from tripping over loose

speaker cables, fix them to the wall.

CONNECTION TO YOUR AMPLIFIER

SPECIFICATIONS

BEFORE MAKING CONNECTIONS, MAKE SURE THAT
THE AMPLIFIER IS SWITCHED OFF.

■ CONNECTIONS

● Connect the push-type input terminals at the rear of the
speakers to the speaker output terminals of your
amplifier with the provided speaker cables.

● One side of the speaker cable is marked by a blue line.
Connect the (+) terminals on both the amplifier and the
speakers using this blue-marked side. Connect the (–)
terminals on both components using the unmarked side
of the cable.

● Connect one speaker to the left (marked L) terminals of
your amplifier, and another speaker to the right (marked
R) terminals, making sure not to reverse the polarity (+,
–). If one speaker is connected with reversed polarity, the
sound will be unnatural and lack bass.

Procedures:

➀ Press the tab on the terminal down, as shown in the

figure.

➁ Insert the bare speaker wire end properly into the

terminal hole. [Remove approx. 5 mm (1/4”) insulation
from the speaker cable.]

➂ Remove your finger from the tab to allow it to lock

snugly on the cable’s wire end.

➃ Test the security of the connection by tugging lightly on

the cable at the terminal.
