various amplifiers may
differ in appearance.
Notes:
• Make sure that the bare wires are not touching each other as this
could damage the speaker and amplifier.
• Connect one speaker to the left terminals of your amplifier, and
another speaker to the right terminals, making sure not to reverse the
polarity (+, –). If one speaker is connected with reversed polarity, the
sound will be unnatural and lack bass.
