SPEAKER BREAK-IN In the same way that a new car requires a break-in period before it can be safely operated at high engine RPMs, speakers require a break-in period before they can be safely operated at maximum volume levels. Proper break-in ensures that the moving parts of the speaker (the cone and cone suspension) are allowed to flex and soften, losing the initial stiffness and allowing the speaker to move through its full intended range.

stray wire strands shorting the connections, allow for use of heavier gauge speaker wire in most cases, and it is much easier to identify the polarity from a color coded ring on a plug then from a subtle marking along the length of a wire. Because the speaker wires will necessarily be run through your walls, you must use in-wall rated wire.
When you are ready to prepare your speaker wires, first separate about 4" of wire, then strip about 1/4" (6mm) insulation from the end and twist it to prevent stray strands. If you plan to use banana or pin plugs (highly recommended), install the plugs on the wire. PAINTING The grille and frame can be painted to match your walls, making the speaker even less noticeable.
