■Speaker Connection Precautions

•(North American and Taiwanese models) You can connect speakers with an impedance of between 6 and 16 ohms. If you use speakers with a lower impedance, and use the amplifier at high volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in amp protection circuit may be activated.

•(European, Australian and Asian models) You can connect speakers with an impedance of between 4 and 16 ohms. If the impedance of any of the connected speakers is 4 ohms or more, but less than 6 ohms, be sure to set the minimum speaker impedance to “4ohms” (➔ page 55). If you use speakers with a lower impedance, and use the amplifier at high volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in protection circuit may be activated.

•Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may affect the sound quality and should be avoided.

•Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

•Make sure the metal core of the wire does not have contact with the AV receiver’s rear panel. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

•Don’t connect more than one cable to each speaker terminal. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

•Don’t connect one speaker to several terminals.

Connections

Bi-amping the Front Speakers

Important:

•When making the bi-amping connections, be sure to remove the jumper bars that link the speakers’ tweeter (high) and woofer (low) terminals.

•Bi-amping can be used only with speakers that support bi-amping. Refer to your speaker manual.

Bi-amping provides improved bass and treble performance.

When bi-amping is used, the AV receiver is able to drive up to a 5.1 speaker system in the main room. Perform bi-amping connections by using FRONT terminals and SURROUND BACK or FRONT HIGH terminals as shown below.

Once you’ve completed the bi-amping connections and turned on the AV receiver, you must set the speaker setting to enable bi-amping (➔ page 55).
