■Connecting speakersConnect the speakers placed in your room to the unit.

Caution

•Remove the unit’s power cable from an AC wall outlet and turn off the subwoofer before connecting the speakers.

•Ensure that the core wires of the speaker cable do not touch one another or come into contact with the unit’s metal parts. Doing so may damage the unit or the speakers. If the speaker cables short circuit, “Check SP Wires” will appear on the front display when the unit is turned on.

If you have nine speakers, use two of them as surround back speakers (*1) or rear presence speakers (*2). If you have seven speakers, use two of them as surround back speakers (*3) or front presence speakers (*4).

•You can also connect up to 2 subwoofers (with built-in amplifier) to the unit. When using 2 subwoofers, configure the “SWFR Layout” setting (p.116) in the “Setup” menu after connecting the power cable to an AC wall outlet.

•To use an external power amplifier (Hi-Fi amplifier, etc.) to enhance speaker output, see “Connecting an external power amplifier” (p.33).
