1 Connect the speaker cables to the speakers
The speakers you have are one of the two types shown here. They differ in how the cables
connect to them.
Before you start, route the cables around your room. To make the rear speaker cables reach
each of the rear speakers, you can unzip the cables by simply pulling them apart.
Follow the instructions for the type of speakers you have.
Connecting Jewel Cube ® speakers Connecting array speakers
The cables for these speakers have a customized plug
that fits into the connector only one way (Figure 4).
A. Notice the marking on each cable plug and match it to
the speaker in that location:
• Front speaker cable plugs are marked L (left), R
(right), and C (center).
• Rear speaker cable plugs are marked LR (left rear)
and RR (right rear).
B. Orient the plug with its small knob up, so the plug slips
easily into a notch on top of the connector (Figure 4).
C. Insert the plug fully into the connector on the rear of its
respective speaker. For example, the plug marked L
connects to the speaker at the left front of your room.

and C (center).

B. Press the terminal tab to insert each wire into the
proper connector. Be sure to match the red-collared
wire to the red speaker connection terminal to maintain
proper + and – polarity.
