Choosing Cable
We recommend high-quality, minimum 16 gauge speaker
cable for runs up to 25 feet (8m) and 12-gauge wire or
thicker for longer runs. (We use a custom-configured 14-
gauge oxygen-free cable in our crossover networks.)
Connecting with Bare Wire
Twist the strand of the wire into a neat bundle. Insert the
bare wire into the holes in the terminals and tighten.
Connecting with Banana Plugs, Pins or Spade Lugs
The binding posts accept single banana plugs and pins, and
can accommodate 5/16" or larger spade lugs.
Basic Connections
Keep the speaker terminal jumper straps in place. When
making connections between the amplifier and speaker be
sure to connect + to + (red) and – to – (black).
