used for longer runs. For specialty wire considerations, consult your local authorized NHT retailer. For best results, use
equal length runs of wire for the left and right speakers. Prepare your speaker wire by stripping 1/4" to 3/8" of insulation
from the ends and twisting the exposed wire strands tightly. The five-way binding posts on the back of the speaker will
accept raw wire, banana plugs or spade plugs. Tighten the binding posts by hand, as pliers can strip or break them.
Be sure to wire both the left and right speakers "in-phase." That is, the Positive (red) terminal on the amplifier
output must be connected to the corresponding Positive (red) terminal on the speaker. Likewise with the Negative
(black) terminals. All speaker wires have some sort of marking along one or both conductors to help you make the
correct connections. Incorrect speaker phase is indicated by weak bass and the lack of a well-defined stereo image.
To minimize noise pickup, segregate cables by function. Do not run low level signal cables parallel to power cables,
speaker cables, or digital cables. Also, do not run speaker cables or digital cables parallel to power cords or parallel to
each other. If different types of cables are placed near each other at some place in your system, separate them by the
maximum practical distance and cross them at right angles where they meet. Do not twist or tie AC power cords with
speaker cables.

Operation
The SuperTwo was designed to handle a wide range of listening levels, but every speaker has limits. It is important to use
common sense and listen for signs of possible distress from the speakers. Underpowered amplifiers are most often the
cause of speaker damage. For example, a 60-watt amplifier runs out of power when called upon to produce more than 60
watts, and the resulting distortion can damage the speaker. If you tend to listen at high volume levels, more powerful
amplifiers are preferable because they are less likely to run out of power.
Noticeable distortion or harsh breakup is an indication that either your amplifier or your speakers are running beyond their
capacity, and the volume should be decreased. If you can feel any heat emanating from the woofer or tweeter, reduce the
level immediately. Speaker damage most often occurs from sustained high volume levels, not from transient sounds or
brief musical peaks. Excessive boosting of bass, treble or equalizer controls can worsen the problem, and is not
recommended.

Maintenance
Your speakers require minimal maintenance under normal use. The cabinet may be cleaned using a damp cloth or a mild,
non-abrasive cleaner. To clean the grille, first remove it from the speaker, then brush lightly with a soft brush or use a
vacuum on its lowest setting. Do not expose the speaker to direct sunlight, high temperatures, or moisture. Do not attempt
to clean the actual drivers.
