Connecting the Speakers
Read the following before connecting your speakers:
• Turn off your amp before making any connections.
• The nominal impedance of these speakers is 8
Ω
. Use
only an amp that supports this impedance.
• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. Connect
positive (+) terminals to only positive (+) terminals, 
and negative (–) terminals to only negative (–) termi-
nals. If the speakers are wired incorrectly, the sound 
will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.
• Be careful not to short the posi-
tive and negative wires. Doing so 
may damage your amp.
Connecting the Speaker Cables
1
Use the cables to connect each speaker’s 
input terminals to the corresponding 
speaker output terminals on your amp.
To make a connection, while 
pressing the terminal lever, 
insert the wire into the hole, and 
then release the lever.
Make sure that the terminals are 
gripping the bare wires, not the insulation.
Connecting the Subwoofer
1
Using the supplied RCA cable, connect 
the subwoofer’s LINE INPUT to your amp’s 
SUBWOOFER PREOUT.
