heck the
connections
Check the speaker and receiver or amplifier
connections carefully. Make sure no loose
strands of wire touch across terminals. This
could create short circuits that can damage
an amplifier or receiver.
Tighten any loose connections before you
plug in the receiver or amplifier.

est the connections
To make sure your speakers operate
correctly:
1. Set your receiver or amplifier for MONO
(monophonic) and turn it on. Set the
balance control to normal (centered).
Place the speakers less than 6 inches
2.
(15 cm) apart, facing each other.
3. Play some deep bass passages of
music through the speakers.
The sound should seem to come from a
point between the two speakers. The bass
should be full and natural. If not, your
connections may be out of phase. Reverse
the connections on the back of one speaker.
Then repeat steps 1 – 3.
