5802 utilizes gold-plated, high-current loudspeaker binding
posts. The positive binding posts, labeled + (positive), are red;
the negative binding posts are black and are labeled – (negative).
The binding posts can accommodate speaker cables terminated
in un-tinned bare wire, spade lugs and banana plugs.
CAUTION: DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN the binding posts. DO
NOT FORCE the binding post nuts over a bent or oversized
connector. Doing so may damage the binding post.

5805’s positive (+) red binding post, and
the speaker’s negative (–) terminal to the N

and connecting the speakers out of phase will result in poor
bass response and vague stereo imaging.
CAUTION: Be careful not to short the positive and negative
outputs together. Do not short the positive or negative outputs
to chassis or any other safety ground.
