Getting Started

Connecting the Speakers

You can connect the following speakers:

•Two sets of front speakers to produce normal stereo sound

•One set of rear speakers to enjoy the surround effect

•One center speaker to produce more effective surround effect (to make human voices outstanding)

•One subwoofer to enhance the bass

For each speaker (except for subwoofer), connect one end of the speaker signal cable (not supplied) to the speaker terminal on the rear panel and the other end to the speaker. (For connecting a subwoofer, see page 8.)

1. Open each terminal.

2. Insert the end of the speaker signal cable as shown (be sure to remove the insulation at the end of each wire first).

3. Close the terminals to clamp the speaker signal cables firmly in place.

4. Connect the (–) and (+) terminals on the rear panel to the (–) and (+) terminals marked on the speakers.

Connecting the front speakers

Connect the front speakers to the FRONT SPEAKERS terminals.

CAUTION:

When connecting speakers, use speakers with the SAME IMPEDANCE indicated by the speaker terminals.
