Connections To The Receiver - Yamaha YHT-693 Owner's Manual

CONNECTIONS
Check to make sure that the power has been turned off before making connections.
Connect the (+) terminal of the amplifier to the (+) terminal of the speaker.
Connect the (–) terminal of the amplifier to the (–) terminal of the speaker.
Reversing polarity (+/–) will result in unnatural sound reproduction.
PROCEDURE
For connections, keep the speaker cords as short as possible. Do not bundle or roll up the excess part of the
cords. If the connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers. Make sure that the + and – polarity
markings of the speaker cords are observed and set correctly. If these cords are reversed, the sound will be
unnatural and lack bass.
How to Connect:
1 Press and hold the terminal's tab.
2 Insert the bare wire into the terminal hole.
[Remove approx. 10 mm (3/8") insulation from the speaker cords.]

10 mm
3 Release your finger from the tab to allow it to lock securely on the bare wire end.
4 Test the firmness of the connection by pulling lightly on the cord at the terminal.
Note
Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other as this could damage the speaker, the amplifier, or both.
