Pioneer VSX-D812 Minute guide, Connect your speakers, Front speakers, VSX-D712 Powered subwoofer

5 minute guide 02

3 Connect your speakers.

A complete setup of speakers is shown here (six speakers for the VSX-D712, and eight for the VSX-D812/D912), but everyone’s home setup will vary. Simply connect the speakers you have in the manner shown below. The receiver will work with just two stereo speakers (the front speakers in the diagram) but using at least three speakers is recommended, and a complete setup is best.

Make sure you connect the speaker on the right to the right terminal and the speaker on the left to the left terminal. Also make sure the positive and negative (+/–) terminals on the receiver match those on the speakers.

•Use speakers with a nominal impedance of 8 Ω to 16 Ω.

•If you’re not using a subwoofer, change the front speaker setting (see Speaker setting on page 44) to large.
