Separate and strip the
ends of the speaker w ire
as show n. Speakers and
elec tronics terminals have
corresponding (+) and (– )
terminals. M ost manu-
fac turers of speakers and
elec tronics, including J BL,
use red to denote the (+)
terminal and blac k for the
(– ) terminal.
The (+) lead of the speaker
w ire is noted w ith a stripe. It
is important to c onnec t both
speakers identically: (+) on
the speaker to (+) on the
amplifier and (– ) on the
speaker to (– ) on the
amplifier. W iring “out of
phase” results in thin sound,
w eak bass and a poor
stereo image.
W ith the advent of
multic hannel surround-
sound systems, c onnec ting
all of the speakers in your
system w ith the c orrect
polarity remains equally
important in order to
preserve the proper
ambienc e and directionality
of the program material.
