STEP 2
CONNECTING THE LOUDSPEAKERS
BEFORE ANY CONNECTIONS ARE MADE,PLEASE ENSURE THAT ALL EQUIPMENT IN THE SYSTEM IS TURNED OFF.
Loudspeaker wire throughout the system should be good quality, loudspeaker grade audio cable with
polarity coding. For loudspeaker wire that runs less than 25 feet, the cable should be a minimum of 18
AWG, for loudspeaker wire that runs up to 50 feet, the cable should be 16 AWG and for loudspeaker
wire that runs longer than 50 feet, the cable should be at least 14 AWG.
INSTALLATION:
Remove 3/8" of insulation from the end of the loudspeaker wires to be connected. Connect the positive
lead of the loudspeaker wire (indicated with a "+" or other marking) to the Red (or positive) loudspeak-
er terminal. Connect the other loudspeaker wire lead to the Black (or negative) loudspeaker terminal.
Connect the opposite end of the loudspeaker wire to your amplifier making sure that the polarity is pre-
served ("+" to "+" or Red to Red, and "-" to "-" or Black to Black – see diagram).
STEP 3
LISTENING TEST
To ensure that all connections have been made correctly, turn on your system and begin playback of
material you are familiar with. Start off by listening at a low volume, then slowly raise the volume to a
comfortable listening level. A proper stereo image should be present. If the loudspeakers do not produce
asolid stereo image, please verify the wiring to ensure that the polarity of the connection is not reversed.
MAINTENANCE
Ultimate loudspeakers arefinished in a black wood grain vinyl. Cleaning the loudspeakers should be done
with a damp cloth. Chemical cleaners should be avoided, as they may damage the finish.
