Connecting the speaker system to the amplifier
Before connecting:
• Turn off the power to the amplifier before connecting the
speaker system; otherwise, the speakers may be damaged.
• The impedance of each speaker is 6 Ω.
If this does not match with the speaker impedance range indicated
on the amplifier, you cannot connect this system to the amplifier.
• The maximum power handling capacity of the SP-XF71F and
SP-XF71C is 100 W. Excessive input will result in abnormal
noise and possible damage.
• Be sure to turn down the volume level on the amplifier to prevent
unwanted noise before performing following operations:
– Turning on or off other components
– Operating the amplifier
– Tuning FM stations
– Fast-forwarding a tape
– Continuously reproducing high frequency oscillation or high
pitch electronic sounds
– Connecting or disconnecting a microphone
• When using a microphone, do not aim it at the speakers or use
it near the speakers; otherwise, the howling which occurs may
damage the speakers.
• Before replacing the cartridge, always turn off the power both
to the amplifier and to the turntable; otherwise, the clicking
noise may damage the speakers.
