two. Speaker Connections
Speakers and electronics ter-
minals have corresponding (+)
and (–) terminals. It is impor-
tant to connect both speakers
identically: (+) on the speaker
to (+) on the amplifier and (–)
on the speaker to (–) on the
amplifier. Wiring “out of phase”
results in thin sound, weak bass
and a poor stereo image.

The wires for both speakers
should be the same length. If
one speaker is placed closer to
the amplifier than the other,
hide the excess wire behind
the wall.
The AS SUB has two pairs of
speaker connections. Connect
one set of terminals (input)
to the left channel of your
amplifier. Connect the other set
of terminals (input) to the right
channel of your amplifier. Then
connect the left satellite to the
left output and the right satel-
lite to the right output.
Note: Diagram is for illustrative
purposes. For each channel it
does not matter which pair of
connectors is used for the input
or which pair is used for the
output.
