JVC TH-A35 manual Connecting the Speakers, Connecting speaker cords to the terminals

Connecting the Speakers

Connect the satellite speakers and subwoofer to the terminals on the rear panel using speaker cords supplied.

Color labels are attached to the speaker cords to indicate the speaker and the terminal to which each is to be connected.

•The five satellite speakers can be used for any positions—center, front left and right, and rear left and right.

•Connect the color labeled cord to the color (+) terminal, and the other cord to the black (–) terminal respectively.

CAUTION:

Use speakers with the SPEAKER IMPEDANCE indicated by the speaker terminals.

Connecting speaker cords to the terminals

1Open the terminal clamp.

2Insert the speaker cord.

3Close the clamp.

Notes:

• If the speaker cord is covered with vinyl, remove the vinyl by twisting it as shown in the diagram.

• Make sure the core wire of speaker cords do not expose to out of the terminals. This could cause short-circuit.

When setting the speakers

To obtain the best possible sound from this system, you need to place all the speakers except the subwoofer at the same distance from the listening position with each front faced toward the listener. Since bass sound is less-directional, but normally place it in between right and left front speaker shown as below.

	Subwoofer	Center speaker
Left front			Right front
			speaker
speaker

Left rear	Right rear
speaker	speaker

If your speakers cannot be placed at the same distance from the listening position

You can adjust the delay time of the center speaker and rear speakers. For in-depth information about adjusting the delay time, see “Setting Menu” on pages 55 and 56.

Note:

Subwoofer phase is closely related with the distance from the listening position to the front speakers and subwoofer. You can change the phase to obtain better bass sound by connecting the speaker cords to the terminals of the subwoofer inversely—the color labeled cord to the black terminal, and the black cord to the color terminal.

CAUTION:

•When attaching the satellite speakers on the wall, have them attached to the wall by a qualified person.

DO NOT attach the satellite speakers on the wall by yourself to avoid an unexpected damage of their falling from the wall, caused by incorrect attachment or weakness in the wall.

•Care is required in selecting a location for attaching speakers to the wall. Injury to personnel, or damage to equipment, may result if the speakers are attached in a location which interferes with daily activities.
