CAUTIONS:

•Use speakers with the SPEAKER IMPEDANCE indicated by the speaker terminals (6 Ω – 16 Ω).

•DO NOT connect more than one speaker to one speaker terminal.

Connecting the speakers

Turn off all components before making connections.

*When using a single speaker for the surround back speaker

You can enjoy the surround sound by one surround back speaker. When using one surround back speaker,

–set “S BACK OUT” to “S BACK OUT: 1SPK” (see page 29) and

–connect the surround back speaker to the left surround back speaker terminal. (No sound comes from the speaker if you connect it to the right surround back speaker terminal.)

1Twist and remove the insulation at the end of each speaker cord.

2Turn the knob counterclockwise.

3Insert the speaker cord.

•For each speaker, connect the (+) and (–) terminals on the rear panel to the (+) and (–) terminals marked on the speakers.

By connecting a subwoofer, you can enhance the bass or

reproduce the original LFE signals recorded in digital software.

Connect the input jack of a powered subwoofer to the SUBWOOFER OUT jack on the rear panel, using a cord with RCA pin plugs (not supplied).

• Refer also to the manual supplied with your subwoofer.

After connecting all the speakers and/or a subwoofer, set the speaker setting information properly to obtain the best possible surround effect. For details, see pages 23, 24, 28, and 29.

NOTE

You can place a subwoofer wherever you like since bass sound is non-directional. Normally place it in front of you.

4Turn the knob clockwise.
