Getting Started

For your convenience, an overall
wiring diagram appears on page 13.
One of the first steps in setting up
MicroWorks is connecting the small
"cube" satellite speakers to the
subwoofer (see next page). Therefore,
before anything else, prepare their
connecting wires as shown.
Twist the individual strands of bared wire
2
tightly together so there are no free
strands that could short across the
speaker or amplifier terminals.
