RCA Stereo Receiver with Remote Control Connecting Program Sources, Connecting The Antennas

3.Connect the ridged or color-coded conductor’s loose end to the speaker’s positive (+) terminal.

4.Connect the remaining loose conductor to the speaker’s negative

(–) terminal.

CONNECTING PROGRAM SOURCES

Note: Use shielded audio cables with phono connectors for all audio connections.

You can connect up to four external program sources to your receiver.

Connecting a Turntable

Connect a turntable with a magnetic cartridge only. Some older turntables use a ceramic-type cartridge that does not work with this system.

Connect the turntable’s left and right cables to the receiver’s L (left) and R (right) PHONO IN jacks. Then connect the turntable’s ground wire to the receiver’s GND screw terminal.

Connecting a CD Player

To connect a CD player to the receiver, connect the CD player’s left and right output jacks to the receiver’s L and R CD IN jacks.

Connecting a Cassette Deck

You can connect a cassette deck to the TAPE MONITOR jacks. Connect the cassette deck’s output jacks to the PLAY jacks, and connect the cassette deck’s input jacks to the REC jacks.

Connecting Another Audio Source

Connect the audio outputs of another audio source, such as the audio from a laser disc player, TV, or VCR to the AUX jacks.

CONNECTING THE ANTENNAS

In many areas, the supplied indoor AM loop and FM antennas provide satisfactory reception.

AM Antennas

Assemble the supplied AM antenna’s base by swinging the base in the direction of the arrow and inserting the antenna’s bottom tabs into the base’s slot. If the receiver is in a rack or on a shelf and there is no room for the AM loop antenna, use two screws (not supplied) to mount the base on the wall or another location as shown.

Attach the antenna wires from the AM loop antenna to the AM and GND (ground) ANTENNA terminals.

Place the antenna on a flat surface and rotate it for the best AM reception.

Notes:

•Keep the AM loop antenna connected even when you use another indoor antenna or an outdoor AM antenna.

•Ensure that the antenna does not touch the receiver or any other metal object.

•Do not place the antenna near a CD player, a personal computer, or a TV set.

•If the wire between the AM loop antenna and your receiver is too short, you can add extra wire, available at your local RadioShack store.
