About the speaker impedance

The required speaker impedance of the front speakers does differ depending on whether both the FRONT SPEAKERS 1 and FRONT SPEAKERS 2 terminals are used or only one of them is used.

CASE 1 When you connect only one set of front speakers

Front	Front
speaker 1	speaker 1

Use front speakers with 8 — 16 ohm impedance.

CASE 2		When you connect two sets of front speakers
		Front	Front
		Front	Front
		speaker 1	speaker 1
	Front		Front
speaker 2			speaker 2

Use front speakers 16 — 32 ohm impedance.

CAUTION:

Use speakers with the SPEAKER IMPEDANCE indicated by the

speaker terminals.

Connecting the rear and center speakers

Connect rear speakers to the REAR SPEAKERS terminals and a center speaker to the CENTER SPEAKER terminals.
