MODELS: N38, XS-GTX1620S MODEL: N28 As Front Speakers As Surround Speakers 5 ­ 6 ft. SPEAKER CONNECTIONS CONNECTION TIPS Speakers and electronics terminals have corresponding (+) and (­) terminals. 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. RIGHT LEFT ­ + ­ + ­+ ­ + Speaker Outputs TROUBLESHOOTING If there is no sound from any of the speakers: · Check that receiver/ amplifier is on and that a source is playing. · Review proper operation of your receiver/amplifier. If there is no sound coming from one speaker: · Check the "Balance" control on your receiver/ amplifier. If there is no sound from the center speaker: · Make sure that your receiver's "Center-Channel" mode is in the "Normal" or "Wide" position. If it is in the "Phantom" position, the center speaker will not play. · Check all connections between processor/ amplifier and the center speaker.
