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.  
Speakers and electronics  
terminals have corresponding  
(+) and (–) terminals. Most  
manufacturers of speakers and  
electronics, including JBL, use  
red to denote the (+) terminal  
and black for the (–) terminal.  
It is important 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. With the advent of multi-
