After placing the speakers, you are ready to connect your system. First turn off all audio system
power. Use high-quality speaker wire to make your connections. If you need more wire than is
provided, use at least #16 gauge speaker wire with polarity coding. The side of the wire with a
ridge or other coding is usually considered positive polarity (i.e., + ). Also, consult the owner' s
manuals that were included with your amplifier, receiver, or television to confirm connection
procedures.

On the back of the satellite, loosen the bracket screw and rotate the bracket to access terminals.
Observe polarities when making speaker connections, as shown in Figure 7. Connect each +
terminal on the back of the amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on each
speaker. Connect the – (black) terminals in the same way.
!
Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to – or – to +) when making connections. Doing so will cause
poor imaging and diminished bass response.
