Speaker Connections
Connection Tips
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.
Separate and strip the ends of
the speaker wire as shown.
Speakers and electronics ter-
minals have corresponding (+)
and (–) terminals. It is impor-
tant to connect both speakers
For satellites, thread speaker
wire through the hole in the
bottom of the speaker, then
feed it through the recessed
wire channel.

Testing
Finally. Take a “test drive” with some favorite music or movies.
1. With the receiver/ amplifier
still turned off, confirm that
its volume control is turned
all the way down. Next,
center the balance control. If
the receiver/ amplifier has an
A/ B speaker switch, set it to
correspond to the speaker
terminals connected to the
SCS110 system.
2. Now, turn on your receiver/
amplifier and select a music
source such as a CD player,
cassette deck or FM tuner.
3. Turn up the volume control
slowly until you hear sound
from the speakers.
4. Rotate the balance control
all the way to the left. Sound
should come only from the
left speaker. If the sound
comes from the right speaker
with the balance control to
the left, the speaker wires
have been reversed during
hook-up. Turn the receiver/
amplifier “off” and switch
both sets of speaker wires.

Troubleshooting
If there is no sound from
any of the speakers, check
the following:
• Receiver/ amplifier is on and
a source is playing.
If the system plays at low
volumes but shuts off as
volume is increased, check
the following:
• Check all wires and con-
nections between receiver/
amplifier and speakers.
If there is low bass output,
check the following:
• Make sure the polarity
(+ and –) of the left and
right “Speaker Inputs” are
connected properly.
• Review proper operation of
your receiver/ amplifier.
• Make sure all wires are con-
nected. Make sure none of the
speaker wires are frayed, cut,
or punctured.
• If more than one pair of
main speakers is being used,
check the minimum impedance • Make sure all wires are con-
requirements of your receiver/
amplifier.
If there is no sound from
the surround speakers, check
the following:
• Check all wires and con-
nections between receiver/
amplifier and speakers.
If there is no sound coming
