Preventing shorting of speaker cords
If the speaker cords short (touch each other or the metal casing), you will not only lose the 
sound from the speakers, but the system may also be damaged as a result. Please read 
the guidelines below carefully and take care to connect the speaker cords correctly.
When connecting the speakers, make sure that the exposed wire of each 
speaker cord does not touch anything other than the correct speaker terminal.
No Good!
OK!
Make sure that exposed 
speaker wire strands do not 
touch the exposed wire from 
any other speaker cord.
Make sure that exposed 
speaker wire does not extend 
outside the speaker terminal 
and touch any other wire.
Make sure that exposed 
speaker wire does not touch 
the rear panel, screws, etc.
1
  Remove about 10 mm (3/8 in.) 
of the plastic insulation and 
twist together the exposed 
speaker wire.
2
  Unscrew the speaker terminal, 
and fully insert the speaker 
cord so that no exposed 
speaker wire extends outside 
the terminal.
3
  Tighten the speaker terminal to 
secure the speaker cord.
Check that all the speaker cords are properly connected at both the 
amplifier and the speaker ends.
