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.

Speaker Impedance

Speakers with an impedance of from 6 to 16 Ω /ohms can be connected for use as front and center speakers.

Speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω /ohms can be connected for use as surround speakers.

Be careful when using two pairs of surround speakers (A + B) at the same time, since use of speakers with an impedance of less than 8 Ω /ohms will

lead to damage.

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.

Connection the speaker terminals

1. Loosen by turning

2. Insert the cord.

3. Tighten by turning

counterclockwise

 

clockwise.

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 speaker’s magnetism. If this should happen, move the speaker away to a position where it does not have this effect.
