two. Speaker Connections

Separate and strip the ends of

the speaker wire as shown.

Speakers and electronics ter-

minals have corresponding (+)

and (–) terminals. It is impor-

tant to connect both speakers

identically: (+) on the speaker

to (+) on the amplifier and

(–) on the speaker to (–) on

the amplifier. Wiring “out of

phase” results in thin sound,

weak bass and a poor stereo

image.

Connection Tips

If there is no sound from

the surround speakers,

check the following:

• Check all wires and con-

nections between receiver/

amplifier and speakers. Make

sure all wires are connected.

Make sure none of the

speaker wires are frayed,

cut or punctured.

• Review proper operation of

your receiver/amplifier and its

surround-sound features.

• Make sure the movie or TV

show you are watching is

recorded in Dolby*Surround.

If it is not, check to see if

your receiver/amplifier has

other surround modes you

may use.

If there is no sound from

the center speaker, check

the following:

• Make sure that your

receiver’s Center Channel

Mode is in the “normal” or

“wide” position. If it is in

the “phantom” position, the

center speaker will not play.

• Check all connections

between processor/amplifier

and the center speaker.

If the system plays at low

volumes but shuts off as

volume is increased, check

the following:

• Check all wires and con-

nections between receiver/

amplifier and speakers. Make

sure all wires are connected.

Make sure none of the

speaker wires are frayed,

cut or punctured.

• If more than one pair

of main speakers is being

used, check the minimum-

impedance requirements of

your receiver/amplifier.
