About connecting speaker cord

down against a flat surface (1) and remove the speaker cords from the connector (2).
Catch
To avoid short-circuiting the speakers
Short-circuiting of the speakers may damage the system. To prevent this, be sure to follow these
precautions when connecting the speakers. Make sure the bare wire of each speaker cord does not touch
another speaker terminal or the bare wire of another speaker cord, such as shown below.
Note
Be sure to match the speaker cords to the appropriate speaker terminals: 3 to +, and # to –. If the cords
are reversed, the sound will lack bass and may be distorted.
