You can't. You have bought powered professional speakers. They are for band or theater use and not domestic.

You can download the instructions here. They are primarily designed to be used from a mix panel for live events.

If you are planning to use them as domestic speakers from a receiver they are useless to you, unless you have a receiver with preouts or an AVP instead of an AVR.

To connect your new equipment with large phono (RCA) jacks to a receiver using positive and negative wires, follow these steps:

  1. Identify Outputs: Identify the output on your device (usually labeled as "ext. out") and the input on your receiver.
  2. Use RCA Cables: Since phono jacks use RCA connectors, get a pair of RCA cables. Connect one end of each RCA cable to the "ext. out" on your device. atfbooru
  3. Connect to Receiver: Connect the other ends of the RCA cables to the corresponding input jacks on your receiver. The input jacks will typically be labeled (e.g., "Aux," "CD," etc.).
  4. Wiring for Speakers: If your receiver has binding posts (with positive and negative terminals), you'll connect your speakers directly to the receiver. Use speaker wire to connect the positive (+) terminal on the receiver to the positive terminal on the speaker, and the negative (-) terminal to the negative terminal on the speaker.
  5. Power On: After everything is connected, power on your devices and select the appropriate input on the receiver.
