Russound SP503.1 - Manual (Page 6)

AT THE SPEAKER END
1. Cut off excess wire, leaving about 2 feet extending through the
speaker cut-out hole.
2. Pull the conductors apart so they’re separated for the first two inches
from their ends.
3. Using a wire stripper, diagonal pliers or a knife, remove 1/2 inch of
insulation from each conductor.
4. Twist the tiny strands in each conductor into tight spirals, as shown
in Figure 4.
5. IMPORTANT: Route the speaker wire THROUGH the sheetrock as
shown in Figure 5.
6. Attach the speaker wires to the red
and black speaker terminals. Press down
on the protruding levers while inserting the
wire into the hole.
- Correct the POSITIVE (+) conductor to the RED
terminal and the NEGATIVE (-) conductor to the
BLACK speaker terminal.
- Make sure that no stray strands of wire have gotten detached and
are touching the other main wire.
7. Repeat Steps 1 through 6 for the other Russound Ceiling Speaker.
AT THE AMPLIFIER END
1. Cut off excess wire, leaving enough to comfortably reach from the
hole in the wall to your stereo system. If there’s a possibility that
you’re going to move the amplifier to another part of the room, con-
sider leaving some excess wire coiled up. If you’ve used sufficiently
thick wire, this extra length will not affect speaker performance and
could make re-routing easier if the room is rearranged later.
2. Pull the conductors on both speaker wires apart so they’re separated
for the last two inches.
3. Using wire strippers, diagonal pliers or a knife, remove 1/2 inch of
insulation from each conductor.
4. Twist the tiny strands in each conductor into tight spirals.
5. Attach the speaker wires to the red and black speaker terminals on
the amplifier or receiver.
* Connect the POSITIVE (+) conductor to the RED terminal and the
NEGATIVE (-) conductor to the BLACK speaker terminal of the receiv-
er/amplifier.
* Make sure that no stray strands of wire have gotten detached and
are touching the other main wire.
Repeat Steps 1 through 5 for the other speaker.
