Dust cloth How to Connect Your System To get the best sound quality, it's important to wire your speakers correctly. SDA Pro Interconnect Locate the interconnect cables packed with both the right and left speaker. Each cable is 15' long, but they can be connected together for a length of 30', if needed. Walk around to the back of one speaker and locate the SDA Pro Interconnect socket on the input plate. Align the plug properly with the socket and push gently but firmly into place until it is fully seated in the socket. To remove the plug, grasp it by the molded body (not by the cable) and pull gently outward (Figure 5). Walk across to other to the other speaker and connect the other end of the interconnect cable in the same manner. Amplifier/Receiver Connections Locate the amplifier outputs, marked red and black. Red corresponds to + (positive) and black corresponds to - (negative). Using recommend speaker cable, connect the left channel amplifier outputs to the left speaker, making certain to connect the red or + output to the red terminal on the speaker. Connect the black or - amplifier output to the black terminal on the same speaker. Using recommended speaker cable, connect the right channel amplifier outputs to the right speaker in the same way.
