HOW TO HOOK-UP SURROUND SOUND

(Easier Than You Think)

Keep the power OFF of your Pro-logic or Dolby Digital  receiver until ALL connections are made.
Run the wire for your center channel first as this is normally your shortest line. Use the copper wire for your right and the silver looking wire for your left. Always run out of your receiver to the speaker. Place your center channel speaker on the top of your T.V. or as close as possible as thats where most of the talking is coming from.

Next, run the two satellite or rear speakers out of your Receiver  to  the back  speakers left and right.

WITH SUBWOOFER: Run lines from the main or front off your receiver to the IN of your subwoofer left & right. Then run the left & right OUT of the subwoofer to the left & right main or front speakers.

WITH POWERED SUBWOOFER: Disregard the speaker wires from the Amp to the Subwoofer  and run a RCA Sub Cable from the Subwoofer Out of the Amp to the Subwoofer . ( Follow the RED connection diagram above).

WITHOUT SUBWOOFER: Run lines out of your receiver marked main or front  to the main or front left & right speakers.

PLEASE make sure that you did not cross wires.

Turn on your receiver on and go WILD. If the receiver shuts off or goes into a protection mode you’ve crossed wires somewhere. Turn off the receiver and double-check all wires.
