Connection Tips
Speakers and electronics terminals have corresponding (+) and
(-) terminals. It is important to connect both speakers identi-
catty: (+) 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.
