Connecting the speakers (2)
Connecting to the amplifier
Use speaker cables to securely connect the positive
(+) terminals of the amp to the positive (+) terminals
of the speakers and the negative (−) terminals of the
amp to the negative terminals (−) of the speakers.

Checking the phase
If the polarities (+/−) of the left and right speakers do
not match, they will be out of phase and good stereo
playback sound will not be possible. To check the
phase, play a mono audio recording that has strong
bass frequencies through one speaker and then both
speakers. If the bass frequencies sound is weaker
with both speakers, they are probably out of phase.
If they are in phase, low-frequency sound should
be rich abundant and the stereo image should be
placed in the middle between the left and right
speakers. If they are out of phase, low frequencies
will be missing and the stereo image will be unclear.
In this case, check the polarities (+/−) of the connec-
tions between the speakers and the amplifier.
By reversing the polarity for one speaker, the phase
can be corrected. Speaker cables are connected to
the input terminals on the backs of the speakers. The
red terminal is positive (+) and the black terminal
is negative (−). Check these carefully when making
connections.
