    APPENDIX B: ASSEMBLING LOUDSPEAKER CABLES CAUTION: When wiring loudspeaker cables, it is extremely important that each pin be wired correctly. Make sure the 48 V DC from the external power supply is wired directly (and only) to the 48 V DC pins on the loud- speaker connector, and that the polarity is observed (negative to negative, positive to positive) to avoid damage to the loudspeaker.
