Connection Precautions
Disconnect the AC cord before making or changing any input, trigger, or speaker wire connec- tions. Make sure there is no strain or tension on any wires that could cause them to pull loose.
Audio In Jacks
Connect the cables from your preamplifier or
Use channels 1 and 2 for your left front (L) and right front (R) channels. This will assure correct operation of the auto turn on audio sensing, should you choose to use it. Here is why:
•When you listen to a stereo source your surround controller will have audio signals only at its left and right channel output jacks. The other channels won’t receive an audio signal for the Auto Turn On circuit to sense.
•Even if you always listen in a surround mode, the center and surround channel sound levels aren’t high enough, on a consistent basis, for the auto turn on audio sensing.
5.1 Channel Connections

7.1 Channel Speaker Connections
If you plan to use your 5125 in a 7.1 system you will need to use a two channel power ampli- fier for the two additional speakers. You have two hookup options which depend on the quality of the separate two channel power amplifier. We recommend using the better amplifier for the left and right front speakers because their sonic contribution to your listening is more significant than the surround back channel speakers.
