Power supply connections are made at the screw terminals marked “+” and “-“. Audio connections are made at the screw terminals marked TIP and RING. The speaker power input is not polarity sensitive and will also work properly if the “+” and “-” connections are reversed.
A volume control knob is provided to adjust the volume of the speaker. The knob is detachable on the ASUG1DK and ASWG1DK models to prevent tampering with the volume control.
