Preventing shorting of speaker cords
If the speaker cords short (touch each other or the metal casing), you will not only lose the
sound from the speakers, but the system may also be damaged as a result. Please read the
guidelines below carefully and take care to connect the speaker cords correctly.
When connecting the speakers, make sure that the exposed wire of each
speaker cord does not touch anything other than the correct speaker terminal.
No Good!
OK!
Make sure that exposed
speaker wire strands do not
touch the exposed wire from
any other speaker cord. Make sure that exposed
speaker wire does not extend
outside the speaker terminal
and touch any other wire. Make sure that exposed
speaker wire does not touch
the rear panel, screws, etc.
1 Remove about 10 mm (3/8 in.)
of the plastic insulation and
twist together the exposed
speaker wire.
2 Unscrew the speaker terminal,
and fully insert the speaker
cord so that no exposed
speaker wire extends outside
the terminal.
3 Tighten the speaker terminal
to secure the speaker cord.
Check that all the speaker cords are properly connected at both the
amplifier and the speaker ends.
