[2] ZONE2 SPEAKER OUT and PREOUT CONNECTIONS

• If another power amplifier or pre-main (integrated) amplifier is connected, the ZONE2 output terminals can be

used to play a different program source in ZONE2 the same time.

Speaker system connections

• ZONE2 SPEAKER OUT can be used when “ZONE2” is selected at System Setup Menu “Power Amp Assign”.

In this case, Surround Back Speaker OUT cannot be used for MAIN ZONE. (See page 25)

•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, center,

surround and surround back speakers.

•Be careful when using two pairs of front 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.

Extension jacks for future use.

NOTE:

• The settings must be changed to use this speaker for ZONE2. (See page 25.)

SURROUND BACK/ZONE2 SPEAKER SYSTEMS

Connecting the video component equipped with V. AUX jacks

To connect the video signal, connect using a 75 Ω/ohms video signal cable cord.

Connecting the speaker terminals

1. Loosen by turning

2. Insert the cord.

3. Tighten by turning

counterclockwise.

Either tightly twist or terminate the core wires.

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

Connecting a Video game component

•Connect the Video game component’s output jacks to this unit’s V. AUX INPUT jacks.

Connecting a video camera component

•Connect the video camera component’s output jacks to this unit’s V. AUX INPUT jacks.

The V. AUX terminal is covered with a cap. Remove this cap in order to use the terminal. (See page 3 for instructions on removing the cap.)

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 Ω/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.
