Speakon® Wiring Guide
The RSX series speaker connections are made via the rear panel ¼" and/or Speakon® connec-
tors for easy interface with industry standard cables. Standard, unshielded speaker wire (avail-
able at your local pro audio or music store), with either ¼" phone or Speakon connectors and
wire gauge of 12–14 AWG is recommended.
If your amplifier uses binding posts you can use speaker cables with banana connectors, but be
sure to pay attention to the +/– polarity when making the connections. Make sure that the + ter-
minal of the speaker, or banana connector, is connected to the + terminal of the power ampli-
fier, and that the – terminal of the speaker, or banana connector, is connected to the - terminal
of the power amplifier. It is important that your PA system is connected in-phase, otherwise you
will not have the proper low-end response and stereo image.
Use the following diagrams below to ensure proper connections when wiring your system:
