of the wire through this hole;
then screw the collar down
until the connection is tight.
The hole in the center of each
collar is intended for use with
banana-type connectors. To
comply with European CE
certification, these holes are
blocked with plastic inserts at
the point of manufacture. To
use banana-type connectors
requires the removal of the
inserts. Do not remove these
inserts if you are using the
product in an area covered by
the European CE certification.

have corresponding positive
(+) and negative (–) terminals.
It is important to connect both
speakers identically: positive
(+) on the speaker to positive
(+) on the amplifier and nega-
tive (–) on the speaker to neg-
ative (–) on the amplifier.
Wiring “out of phase” results
in thin sound, weak bass and
a poor stereo image when
two speakers are used.

If there is no sound
off as volume is
increased:
• Turn off all electronics
from any of the
and switch the speaker in
question with one of the other
speakers that is working cor-
rectly. Turn everything back
on and determine whether the
problem has followed the
speaker, or has remained in
the same channel. If the prob-
lem is in the same channel,
the source of the problem is
most likely with your receiver/
amplifier, and you should
consult the owner’s manual
for that product for further
information. If the problem
has followed the speaker,
consult your dealer for further
assistance or, if that is not

• Review proper operation of
your receiver/amplifier.
If there is no sound
coming from one
