Speaker cables
Connect the speakers with commercially-available speaker cables.
<  Use the shortest speaker cables possible. As cables become longer, 
electrical  resistance  increases  and  damping  characteristics  are 
reduced.  Moreover,  inductance  and  capacitance  also  increase, 
degrading the quality of high frequency sounds.
<  Ideally, left and right speaker cables should be the same length.
  CAUTION
<  After all connections are complete, connect the power cord’s plug 
to the AC wall socket.
<  The metal portions of the two separate wires should not touch or 
an electrical short can occur. Shorted wires can create a fire hazard 
or induce a failure in your equipment.
How to connect
The  red  speaker  terminals  are  +  (positive)  and  the  black  speaker 
terminals are _ (negative).
Generally,  the  +  side  of  the  speaker  cable  is  marked  to  make  it 
distinguishable from the _ side of the cable.
Make sure to connect:
Marked + side

  Red + terminal
Unmarked _ side 
e
  Black _ terminal
Turn  the  terminal  cap  counter-clockwise  to  loosen,  clockwise  to 
tighten.
<  Be sure to connect each plug securely. To prevent hum and noise, 
do not bundle the connection cords.
Using speaker cables with bare wire
Turn the terminal cap counter-clockwise to loosen it. Insert the wire 
core through the hole in the terminal and tighten the terminal cap.
Using speaker cables with spades
Turn  the  terminal  cap  counter-clockwise  to  loosen  it.  Insert  the 
spade around the terminal and tighten the terminal cap.
Using speaker cables with banana plugs
With the terminal cap tightened, insert the plug into the jack on 
the end of the cap.
<  Read the instructions supplied with the banana plug.
  For European customers
In accordance with European safety regulations, it is not possible 
to connect banana plugs into the speaker terminals on European 
models.  The  holes  into  which  banana  plugs  are  inserted  have 
been covered with black caps. Connect the speakers using spades 
or  bare  wires.  If  the  black  caps  become  separated  from  the 
terminals, return them to their original position.
