Connecting To The Front A Terminals - Yamaha RX-V363 Owner's Manual

Connections
■ Before connecting to the SPEAKERS
terminal
A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables
running side by side. Cables are colored or shaped
differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridges.
Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the "+" (red)
terminals of this unit and your speaker. Connect the plain
cable to the "–" (black) terminals.
Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8") of insulation
from the end of each speaker cable and then
twist the bare wires of the cable together to
prevent short circuits.
