3. Strip ¼” – ½” of insulation from each lead of the speaker wire.
Twist the strands or tin the exposed wire with solder to ensure
that there are no stray strands. (Stray strands that touch each
other can cause a short-circuit that can damage the amplifier.)
4. The speaker’s positive connector post is labeled with a red dot;
the negative post is labeled with a black dot (see
Figure 13
).
Push the top of each connector post down to open the connector
and insert the exposed wires into the holes in the posts. Double-
check that you connected amplifier “+” to speaker “+” and
amplifier “–” to speaker “–”.
5. Once you have verified that the connections are correct, tighten
the wire tie to secure the speaker cable to the BPS-1 cabinet. This
will help prevent the speaker from being accidentally disconnected
in the future.

Component inserts into the groove around the outer edge
of the Adaptor Baffle. See
Figure 14
.
2. Insert about half of the Architectural Finish Component
rim into the groove on the Adaptor Baffle. Gently fit the
remaining half of the rim by working around the Baffle,
fitting the rim into the groove as you go.
NOTE: FOR A PROPER INSTALLATION THE FOAM TAPE
SHOULD FIT SECURELY AND CONSISTENTLY INTO THE
GROOVE IN THE BAFFLE WITHOUT BINDING. IF NECESSARY,
LIGHTLY LUBRICATE THE FOAM TAPE WITH WATER TO EASE
INSERTION.
