I have a pair of "The Fisher XP-55b" loud speakers, and they have COM/OHMS connections instead of a typical +/- one. So, how can I connect them to a new amplifier? My current connection is that "+" to "COM" and "-" to "OHMS". If I changed the current poles, would I only change the diaphragm's beating direction? I am wondering if there is an appropriate connection form for those ones. Thanks..
Hi, assuming there are only 2 connections then you're idea is basically sound as long as you follow the same setting/connection scheme for both left and right speakers. However, you may want to reverse since if I remember it right COM would refer to common or ground and therefore OHMS(there should be a 4 or an 8 somewhere) would have to be the +. It might also be a good idea to check if the impedance of the speaker will match the "new amplifier". Please let me know how this turns up. Regards.

It's like my speakers sounded quite clearly after I had connected'em in your way. Thanks.
