7. If you have not already removed the speaker’s base, do so by 

    pulling it straight off the speaker, as shown in the illustration.  

    Applying even pressure to both sides of the base will allow it 

    to slide off smoothly.

   CAUTION: Before making speaker connections, be sure that 

   your receiver or amplifier is turned OFF and preferably, 

   its AC cord is unplugged from the AC outlet.

8. Connect the speaker wire to the speaker terminals as shown in 

    the illustration: 
    a) Press down on the top of the terminal to open the connection hole.

    b) Insert the wire’s bare end all the way into the hole.

    c) Release the terminal to secure the wire. 
    Insert the conductor with the colored band into the speaker’s 

red

 ( + ) terminal, and insert the other conductor into the speaker’s 

black

 ( – ) terminal.

IMPORTANT: Make sure the ( + ) and ( – ) bare wires do not touch 

each other or the other terminal. Touching wires can cause a short 

circuit that can damage your receiver or amplifier.

      mount with the pad facing the mount, and fasten it to the  

      mount using two of the supplied screws. This will prevent 

      the speaker from detaching from the bracket and will hold
