Receiver (Amplifier) Hookups

Connect your receiver (amplifier) as follows. Refer as well to the instructions supplied with the component to be connected.

zYou can enjoy surround sounds even if you only connect front speakers

You can use 3D sound imaging to create virtual rear speakers from the sound of the front speakers (L, R) without using actual rear speakers (VES: Virtual Enhanced Surround and VIRTUAL SEMI MULTI DIMENSION). For details, see page 47.

When connecting the cords, be sure to match the color-coded cord to the appropriate jacks on the components: Red (right) to Red and White (left) to White. Be sure to make connections firmly to avoid hum and noise.

If you have a digital component such as a receiver (amplifier) with a digital connector, DAT or MD, connect the component via the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL or COAXIAL connector using an optical or coaxial digital connecting cord (not supplied).
