Overview
This section describes how to connect your speakers to
the receiver. Although front (left and right) speakers
are required, centre and surround speakers are
optional. Adding centre and surround speakers will
enhance the surround effects. Connecting an active
woofer will increase bass response. For specific
locations of the terminals, see the illustration below.

Twist the stripped ends of the cord about 15 mm (2/3 inch).
Be sure to match the speaker cord to the appropriate
terminal on the components: + to + and – to –. If the cords
are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack bass.
