■IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch

CAUTION

Do not change the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch while the power of this unit is turned on, as doing so may damage the unit.

If the unit fails to turn on, the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch may not be fully slid to either position. If this is the case, remove the power cable and slide the switch all the way to either position.

Select the switch position (LOW or HIGH) according to the impedance of the speakers in your system.

Switch	Impedance level
position
	• If you use one set (A or B), the impedance of
	each speaker must be 6 Ω or higher.
	• If you use two sets (A and B) simultaneously,
HIGH	the impedance of each speaker must be 12 Ω
	or higher.
	• If you make bi-wire connections, the
	impedance of each speaker must be 6 Ω or
	higher. See page 6 for details.
	• If you use one set (A or B), the impedance of
	each speaker must be 4 Ω or higher.
	• If you use two sets (A and B) simultaneously,
LOW	the impedance of each speaker must be 8 Ω or
	higher.
	• If you make bi-wire connections, the
	impedance of each speaker must be 4 Ω or
	higher. See page 6 for details.
