Speakers

There are 6 speakers equipped with the unit (2 front, 1 center, 2 rear, 1 subwoofer). In order to enjoy good surround effects, all six speakers need to be connected to the receiver.

At least two front speakers (left and right) are required. For better sound quality, Center speaker, rear speakers and Subwoofer should also be connected. Adding center and rear speakers will enhance surround effects. Adding a Subwoofer will increase bass response.

If you want to enjoy the full sound range, use the subwoofer with the speakers to maintain adequate bass signal.

the terminal.

NOTE: Make sure the insulation is completely removed from the ends of the Antenna and speaker wires at all connection points.

To ease speaker connections, the speaker wires and the terminals are color-coded.

White/Grey Striped (Front Left Speaker),

Red/Grey Striped (Front Right Speaker),

Green/Grey Striped (Center Speaker)

Blue/Grey Striped (Rear Left Speaker).

Grey/Grey Striped (Rear Right Speaker).

Purple/Grey Striped (Subwoofer)

Connect the L, R speakers at the back of the speakers to the corresponding color on the receiver. Do the same for center (with green/black terminal), rear speaker and the subwoofer (with purple/black terminal).

Speaker Polarity

When connecting the speakers, make sure the polarities (“+” speaker wire to “+” on the receiver) of speaker wires and terminals are matched. If the wires are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack bass (“out of phase” effect).

Connecting the Subwoofer

Connect the subwoofer with the speaker wire (purple/ black) provided.

This receiver offers a high flexibility for user to use a large variety of speakers and subwoofer. For more information please refer to section “Fine Setting of the Speakers” in “Advanced Sound Control” on page 22.
