nal on each speaker. Connect the – (black) terminals in
the same way.

terminals in the same way.
Important!
Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to –, or – to +) when
making connections. Doing so will cause poor imaging
and diminished bass response. Be certain that positive
and negative wire strands are completely isolated to avoid
short circuits that may damage your equipment.
