Connecting speaker systems

To get the best possible sound from the unit, connect front (left and right), centre, and rear (left and right) speakers. You need to connect either the centre or rear speakers as well as the front speakers to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic Surround sound.

Before you connect...

•Prepare speaker cords (one for each speaker) (not supplied).

• Be sure to match the speaker cords to the appropriate terminals on the components: + to +, and – to –. (If the cords are reversed, the sound will be distorted and the bass sound will not be reproduced well.)

• Do not connect the mains lead until you finish all the connections through “Step 5 : Connecting various audio/video equipment” on page 10.

• Be sure to make connections firmly to avoid hum and noise.
