Use the cord properly

Speaker cord consists of two insulated

wires The insulation around one wire is

striped, collared, or ribbed This marked

wire is always positive (+) The plain wire is

always

negative (-) These correspond to the red

(+) and black (-) terminals on the back of

the speaker, receiver, or amplifier Be sure

to connect each wire to the proper terminal

(positive to positive, negative to negative)

•

Prepare the ends of each cord

At the ends of each cord, strip approxi-

mately

1/2 inch (12 mm) of insulation from both

wires Twist the bare ends of each wire

hex knob on one terminal post This reveals

a small opening through the post Insert the

bare end of one wire into the opening
