CONNECTING THE SPEAKERS

CAUTION: Make sure that all of the system’s electrical components

are turned OFF (and preferably unplugged from their AC outlets) before

making any connections.

Connect your speaker wire to the post terminals on the rear of the

speaker. Banana plugs may be used for convenience. Please note if

your speaker wire features a polarity stripe to help distinguish its two

conductors. Use this polarity stripe to ensure that you are connecting

the positive (+) terminal on the JBL Control X speakers to the positive

(+) terminal on the amplifier, and connect the negative (–) speaker

terminal to the negative (–) terminal on the amplifier. It does not matter

whether you use the striped conductor for connecting the postive (+)

terminals or the negative (–) terminals.

Do not reverse polarities (i.e., “+” to “–” or “–” to “+”) when making

connections. Doing so will cause poor stereo imaging and diminished

bass performance.

IMPORTANT: Make sure the (+) and (–) wires or connectors do not

touch each other or the other terminal. Touching wires can cause a

short circuit that can damage your receiver or amplifier.
