Connections
CAUTION: Before making any connections to the BDS system, ensure that
the AC cord is unplugged from the system and the AC outlet. Making speaker
connections with the system plugged in and turned on could damage the
speakers or the BDS system.
Speakers and the BDS system have corresponding (+) and (–) connection terminals.
Most speakers use red to denote the (+) terminal and black for the (–) terminal.
Your BDS system has color-coded speaker terminals:
BDS 280
White left channel (+)
Red right channel (+)
Black (–) on both channels
BDS 580
White front left (+)
Red front right (+)
Blue surround left (+)
Gray surround right (+)
Green center (+)
Black (–) on all channels
Black is used to denote the (–) terminals of all channels on the BDS system.
Be sure to connect each speaker identically: (+) on the speaker to (+) on the BDS
system and (–) on the speaker to (–) on the BDS system. If one or more speakers are
miswired, it results in thin sound, weak bass and a poor stereo image.
CAUTION: Make sure the (+) and (–) bare wires do not touch each other or
the other terminal. Touching wires can cause a short circuit that can damage
your BDS system.
Connecting a Powered Subwoofer
Use a mono RCA audio cable to connect the BDS system’s Subwoofer output connector
to your powered subwoofer; consult your subwoofer’s owner’s manual for information
about making connections to your subwoofer.
Connecting the FM Antenna
Connect the supplied antenna to the FM Antenna connector as shown in the following
illustration. Fully extend the antenna wire and move it to different positions until you
get the best reception of your favorite stations.
Connecting a TV or Video Display
Use the supplied HDMI cable to connect the BDS system’s HDMI output to your TV/video
display’s HDMI input. The BDS system is HDMI version 1.4b with 3-D and 30/36-bit Deep
Color.
NOTE:If you have devices (such as a digital tuner) already connected directly
to your TV, you can feed their sound to the BDS system via the HDMI output
connector’s Audio Return Channel, and they will not require additional
connections to the system.
