CONNECTING YOUR SYSTEM

IMPORTANT: Make sure all equipment is turned off before
making any connections. Correct wiring of your compact
speakers is essential for achieving the best sound quality. Be
careful to ensure proper polarity of connection. We recom-
mend a minimum of 18 gauge for runs up to 25 feet, and
thicker for longer runs.
Most compact speaker cable is coded to ease this task. Typi-
cally the ribbed or striped side, or the side with the connector
marked in red or white, is connected to the positive (red)
terminal. Make sure that the amplifier positive (red) terminal is
connected to the compact speaker positive (red) terminal, and
that the amplifier negative (black) terminal is connected to the
compact speaker negative (black) terminal.
If the wires you're using are not already terminated with banana
plugs, spade lugs, etc., strip off ½" of insulation from the ends
of the cable, twist the bare strands and insert into the binding
posts. Take care that no stray strands of wire short across
between the terminals.
Connect the cable from the front left or front right channel, or
the rear left or rear right channel, to the bottom set of binding
posts on the speaker.
If you are using the height channel drivers in the SP-BS22A-LR
for Dolby Atmos or another surround sound technology with
