Speaker system connections
• Connect the speaker terminals with the speakers making sure that like
polarities are matched (< with <, > with >). Mismatching of polarities will
result in weak central sound, unclear orientation of the various instruments,
and the sense of direction of the stereo being impaired.
• When making connections, take care that none of the individual conductors
of the speaker cord come in contact with adjacent terminals, with other
speaker cord conductors, or with the rear panel.
NOTE:
• NEVER touch the speaker terminals when the power is on. Doing so
could result in electric shocks.
• Do not use soeaker cords with a diameter of over 1.5 mm. Doing so
may damage the speaker terminals. (for FRONT SPEAKER B,
SURROUND SPEAKER)
1. Loosen by turning
counterclockwise.
1. Push the lever.
CENTER SPEAKER SYSTEM
Connection jack for subwoofer with built-in
amplifier (super woofer), etc.
To achieve Dolby Digital (AC-3) playback
effect, use a unit that can sufficiently
reproduce frequencies of under 80 Hz.
Connecting the speaker cords

Speaker Impedance
• When speaker systems A and B are use separately, speakers with an
impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms can be connected for use as front speakers.
• Be careful when using two pairs of front speakers (A + B) at the same time,
since use of speakers with an impedance of 12 to 16 Ω/ohms.
• Speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms can be connected for use
as center and surround speakers.
• The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long periods of
time at high volumes when speakers with an impedance lower than the
specified impedance are connected.

• Precautions when connecting speakers
If a speaker is placed near a TV or video monitor, the
colors on the screen may be disturbed by the
( R )
speaker's magnetism. If this should happen, move
the speaker away to a position where it does not
have this effect.
