CONNECTIONS
Connecting speakers and source components
CAUTION
• Do not connect this unit or other components to the main power until all connections between components are
complete.
• All connections must be correct: L (left) to L, R (right) to R, "+" to "+" and "–" to "–". If the connections are faulty,
no sound will be heard from the speakers, and if the polarity of the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound will be
unnatural and lack bass. Refer to the owner's manual for each of your components.
• Use RCA cables for audio components (except for speaker connections and DOCK jack connections).
• The IMPEDANCE SELECTOR must be set to the appropriate position before connecting speakers. See page 11 for
details.
• Do not let bare speaker wires touch each other or any metal part of this unit. This could damage this unit and/or the
speakers.

• The PHONO jacks are designed for connecting a turntable with an MM cartridge.
• Connect your turntable to the GND terminal to reduce noise in the signal. However, for some turntables, you may hear less noise
without the GND connection.
