■Bi-Wiring
The method is to improve sound quality, by connecting speaker cable respectively to each terminal for Bass and Mid/High speak- ers. This method will reduce interference caused by the bass speaker and the Mid/High speaker unit being powered by the same amplifier.
■Wiring the speaker system
●Speaker system doesn’t comply with the Bi-Wiring
●Be careful not to short circuit or touch the speaker cables to each other.
●Peel off the coating or insulation of the speaker cable as shown below.

●Wiring with “Y” style terminal
Please connect either of the speaker terminals 1 or 2. And please use a speaker system whose impedance is for 4 - 16Ω. If impedance is lower than 4Ω, the protection circuit will be engaged during play. This will result in no output of the Amplifier.
●Speaker system complies with the Bi-Wiring

Speaker terminals have positive (+ : Red) and negative
■Wiring the speaker
CAUTION:
When connecting two pairs of speaker systems simulta- neously, the impedance of each speaker system should be no less than 8 ohm .
Connecting a speaker system with a lower impedance than 8 ohm may activate the protection circuitry and make nor- mal stereo reproduction impossible.
