Connecting Speakers

Before connecting

Refer also to the instruction manuals of the speakers.

Be sure to connect the positive and negative cables for the speakers properly. If they are mixed up, the left and right signals will be reversed and the audio will sound unnatural.

Connect speakers with an impedance between 6 and 16 Connecting speakers with an impedance less than 6 may damage the TX-L5.

To prevent damage to circuits, never short-circuit the positive (+)

and negative (–) speaker wires.

NO!

 

Do not connect more than one speaker cable to one speakerterminal. Doing so may damage the TX-L5.

When you are using only one speaker or when you wish to listen to monaural (mono) sound, a single speaker should never be connected in parallel to both the right and left channel terminals simultaneously.
