Whatever speaker wire you get, make sure that it has marks to distinguish one conductor from another. Most speaker wires use a colored stripe to identify one of the conductors. The identified conductor is usually used for the positive (+/red) connection and the other for the negative (-/black) side. NOTE: When cutting speaker wires, ensure that the length of each stereo pair is the same. -

Each numbered IR emitter jack corresponds to a specific source device. When an IR remote control is used in a particular zone, the system determines which source device is selected for that zone and sends the IR signal out to that specific device's IR emitter. In addition to the specific IR signaling to individual source devices, the ALL jack repeats all IR signals received, regardless of the zone or the selected source device. -
