Proper Phasing  
Why are we placing as much emphasis on consistency here? We want you to get all the performance  
you’ve paid for!  
BREak-In  
Many people believe speakers improve with age.  
With TSC speakers, you’ll notice a change in timbre, responsiveness, and sheer musicality as you use  
them because the drivers “settle in” with use.  
When your amplifier-to-speaker connections are consistent (when “+” is always connected to “+” and  
“-“ is always connected to “-“), your speakers are connected “in phase.” That means the drivers in each  
speaker will push out when they get a common positive signal from an amplifier and pull in when they  
get a negative signal.  
How long should you wait? That depends, for example, on whether you listen AM radio at low volume  
or full orchestral music at live concert levels. In general, you’ll begin to hear differences after 20-30  
hours of use.  
When speakers are connected “out of phase,” the drivers fight each other – some move out while others  
move in. The result? You’ll get less bass and blurred imaging. That’s a pretty heavy price to pay for  
not taking just a few extra seconds to make sure your connections are correct.  
CaRE  
Your TSC Indoor/Outdoor speakers don’t need much maintenance. Wipe them occasionally with a  
damp cloth to keep the enclosures clean. And keep the grills on so kids (and some adults, too!) aren’t  
temped to push in the drivers.  
Some Advice On Speaker Wire  
Please use 16 gauge wire if your amplifier-to-speaker runs are under 50’. For longer runs, we  
strongly suggest 14 gauge. For your reference, standard “lamp cord” available at most hardware  
stores is 18 gauge. Better to use heavier wire such as 16 or 14 gauge.  
Above all, enjoy! That’s what your TSC speakers were designed for and why we take such pride in b  
ringing them to you!  
To connect your speaker wire to the speakers, follow these simple steps:  
Strip about 3/8” of the insulation off both speaker wire conductors with a wire stripper or sharp knife.  
Connect the “+” conductor of your speaker wire to the “+” terminal on your speaker by pressing the top of  
the connector down until you can see a hole in the shaft of the connector.  
Insert the stripped conductor into the hole.  
Let go of the connector so that it springs back into position, thereby locking the speaker wire conductor into  
place.  
Repeat the last two steps with the wire’s “-“ conductor and the speaker’s “-“ terminal.  
Remember to leave some slack in the wire so you can rotate the speaker if needed.  
You may want to insulate the connections with electrical or weather resistant tape or use heat shrink  
tubing. You can apply tape after you make the connections but heat shrink tubing needs to be in place  
before you connect wire to speaker. Read the instructions supplied with the tubing before use.  
Note:  
Depending on how you’ve mounted the bracket and where you’re aiming the speaker, you may need  
to leave the speaker loose in the bracket until you’ve connected it to your amplifier. That’s fine.  
Just remember to tighten everything up when you’re done.
