For AM reception, rotate the antenna hori- zontally to get better reception.

Connecting the Speakers

Speakers

There are 5 speakers jacks on the back of the unit (2 front, 1 center, 2 rear). In order to enjoy good sur- round effects, all five speakers need to be connected to the receiver.

At least two front speakers (left and right) are required. For better sound quality, Center speaker, rear speakers and Subwoofer should also be connected. Adding center and rear speakers will enhance surround effects.

If you want to enjoy full range of sound effects, with small speakers, it is a must to use the subwoofer with the speakers to maintain adequate bass signal.

Speaker Polarity

When connecting the speakers, make sure the polari- ties (“+” speaker wire to “+” on the receiver) of speaker wires and terminals are matched. If the wires are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack bass (“out of phase” effect).

Connecting the Subwoofer

Adding a Subwoofer will increase bass response. Connect the subwoofer wire to the SUB OUT jack on the back of the unit.

This receiver offers a high flexibility for user to use a large variety of speakers and subwoofers. For more information please refer to section “Fine Setting of the Speakers” in “Advanced Sound Control” on page 24.
