Connecting the external input (EXT. IN) jacks

These jacks are for inputting multi-channel audio signals from an outboard decoder, or a component with a different type of multi-channel decoder, such as a DVD Audio player, or a multi-channel SACD player, or other future multi-channel sound format decoder.

When making connections, also refer to the operating instructions of the other components.

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

/ohms can be connected for use as front and center speakers.

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

Connecting the MULTI ZONE jacks

If another pre-main (integrated) amplifier or power amplifier is connected, the multi-source jacks can be used to play a different program source in another room at the same time.

Protector circuit

This unit is equipped with a high-speed protection circuit. The purpose of this circuit is to protect the speakers under circumstances such as when the output of the power amplifier is inadvertently short- circuited and a large current flows, when the temperature surrounding the unit becomes unusually high, or when the unit is used at high output over a long period which results in an extreme temperature rise.

When the protection circuit is activated, the speaker output is cut off and the power supply indicator LED flashes. Should this occur, please follow these steps: be sure to switch off the power of this unit, check whether there are any faults with the wiring of the speaker cables or input cables, and wait for the unit to cool down if it is very hot. Improve the ventilation condition around the unit and switch the power back on. If the protection circuit is activated again even though there are no problems with the wiring or the ventilation around the unit, switch off the power and contact a DENON service center.

Note on speaker impedance

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 (for example speakers with an impedance of lower than 4 /ohms) are connected. If the protector circuit is activated, the speaker output is cut off. Turn off the set’s power, wait for the set to cool down, improve the ventilation around the set, then turn the power back on.
