PaulN asked:


I 'the VE has made this old receiver from Rotel hours to hook up my CD and turntable to Stanton for a while. From the back I have two unpowered speakers using the wire normal usage. I have never felt the sense I have hooked up, but I think I could have it back. A tie that on each set of 2 for the left and right has a blue line. ? that the denial or the positive? I had to come in blue and positive entry in negation normal gray. I just switched the other way and there seems to be difference. Import? Yeah but my question? That? positive and that? negative? Ci? ? tie your standard stereo usage. it 's are thin. I don 't make it too strong anyway.

   The wire doesn’t care which one is positive or negative, but the amp and speakers do. So it doesn’t matter as long as you are consistent. Use the blue for positive and grey for negative in all instances and you are fine, but the other way around is ok also. Just keep it the same all the way through.

   Usually the wire with the markings on it is the positive wire, it doesn’t matter until the sound is amplifed, in new recievers the system will shut off automatically. Even though the sound will work if you cross wire it you won’t get the high tones or overall clarity until to get a straight DC current.
