Speaker Connections
The RMZ-955 is supplied with eight quick-connect screw termi-
nal plugs for speaker connections – one twin-terminal plug is
used for each speaker, two for each zone. Make the wire con-
nections from a speaker to a quick-connect plug and then insert
the plug into the appropriate receptacle on the back panel of the
RMZ-955, as illustrated.
Strip back each speaker wire’s insulation by 1/4 inch. Insert the
bare wire into one “slot” on the quick-connect plug and secure
by tightening the corresponding clamping screw. Repeat for the
other conductor, making sure that there are no loose strands of
wire which could cause a short. Repeat for the second speaker
in zone one and then continue with the other zones.
Remember to observe proper polarity when connecting all loud-
speakers. The amplifier’s “+” output should connect to the
proper speaker’s “+” terminal. “Out of phase” loudspeaker hook-
ups (where one speaker in a stereo pair is inadvertently con-
nected “+” to “-” and vice versa) may not be immediately
noticeable but will not be as pleasing as a properly connected
stereo pair. BE CAREFUL AND BE PATIENT.
