– This example shows how to connect bare wires to the

terminals. Banana plugs may also be inserted directly into the rear of the

connector.

IMPORTANT: Make sure all equipment is turned off before
making any connections.

For speaker connections, use a minimum #16-gauge speaker
wire with polarity coding. The side of the wire with a ridge or
other coding is usually considered positive polarity (i.e., +).

NOTE: If desired, consult your local Infinity dealer about speaker
wire and connection options.

The speakers have coded terminals that accept a variety of wire
connectors. The most common connection is shown in Figure 4.

To ensure proper polarity, connect each + terminal on the back
of the amplifier or receiver to the respective + (red) terminal on
each speaker, as shown in Figure 5. Connect the – (black)
terminals in a similar way. See the owner’s guides that were
included with your amplifier, receiver and television to confirm
connection procedures.

IMPORTANT: Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to – or – to +)
when making connections. Doing so will cause poor imaging and
diminished bass response
