APPENDIX A: CONNECTING THE RECEIVER

SPEAKERS

All wires must be securely fastened in their terminals. A loose connection can cause intermittent sound or noise, and can damage your receiver.

If you are using Surround speakers, you must connect both speakers.

MAIN SPEAKERS

•Connect the left main speaker to the MAIN L terminals.

•Connect the right main speaker to the MAIN R terminals.

REAR SPEAKERS

•Connect the left rear speaker to the REAR L terminal.

•Connect the right rear speaker to the REAR R terminal.

•Position the speakers behind you in your TV room. To improve the surround sound effect, you may prefer to set or mount the speakers several feet off the floor.

CENTER SPEAKER

• Connect the center speaker to the CENTER terminal.

CONNECTING SPEAKERS TO THE RECEIVER

1.If necessary, remove the vinyl covering from the ends of the speaker wire and twist the wire.

2.Press down and hold the lever on the speaker terminal.

3.Insert the wire in the hole. Be sure to connect the (+) to

(+) and the (-) to (-). Otherwise, the speakers will not be “in phase”, causing reduction in bass frequencies.

4.Release the lever. Pull gently on the wire to make sure it is secure.
