Connecting the speakers cables
Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels and + (red) and – (white)
polarities on the speakers being connected to the unit, and be sure to
connect the channels and polarities correctly.
1 Peel off about 3/8 inch (10 mm) of
sheathing from the tip of the speaker
cable, then either twist the core wire
tightly or apply solder to it.
2 Turn the speaker terminal
counterclockwise to loosen it.
3 Insert the speaker cable’s core wire to all
the way into the speaker terminal.
4 Turn the speaker terminal clockwise to
tighten it.
