Before making connections, make sure that Better stereo images will be obtained when the speakers are the amplifier is switched off. slightly angled in towards the listeners. Standard connections ¦Using as front speakers in a multi channel system Position the speakers on both sides of the TV. The positioning of speakers is important, since this dictates the overall sound quality of the multi channel system. Set up the speakers on the basis of your listening position by following the owner’s manual supplied with your amplifier. NS-B750 Subwoofer Center Surround Surround back Notes • Placing this unit too close to a CRT TV set might impair picture color or create a buzzing noise. Should this happen, move the speaker away (more than 20 cm (7-7/8”)) from the TV set. • To avoid accidents resulting from tripping over loose speaker cables, fix them to the floor.

Use the other wire of the cable to connect the (–) terminals of the components. • Connect one speaker to the left (marked L) terminals of your amplifier, and another speaker to the right (marked R) terminals, making sure not to reverse the polarity (+, –). If one speaker is connected with reversed polarity the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.

Test the firmness of the connection by pulling lightly on the cables at the terminal. Notes • Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other as this could damage the speaker or the amplifier, or both. • Do not insert the insulation into the hole. Sound may not be produced. ¦About Bi-Wire Connection This speaker system is capable of bi-wire connection. To connect the speaker to the output terminals of the amplifier (or receiver), two pairs of cables for each of mid-range/woofer and tweeter used instead of standard connections. This type of connection decreases the modulation distortion caused by electric resistance of the cables and driving current of the speakers. Consequently, purer sound quality can be expected. To utilize bi-wire connection, remove the short bars from the terminals first, and then connect the mid-range/woofer and tweeter to the amplifier separately using two pairs of cables. ¦When using a banana plug Note Do not take off this cover unless using a banana plug. 1 Remove the cover by pulling it toward you. 2 Tighten the terminal knob. 3 Simply insert the banana plug into the terminal.
