Connecting the front, center, and surround speakers

For each speaker, connect the (+) and (–) terminals on the rear panel

to the (+) and (–) terminals marked on the speakers respectively.

Connecting the subwoofer

By connecting a subwoofer, you can enhance the bass or reproduce the original LFE signals recorded in the digital software.

1Twist and remove the insulation at the end of each speaker cord (not supplied).

2Press and hold the clamp of the speaker terminal (1), then insert the speaker cord (2).

3Release the finger from the clamp.

CAUTION:

Use speakers with the SPEAKER IMPEDANCE indicated by the

speaker terminals.

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.

NOTE

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