Connections

Connecting speakers

Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), “+” (red line) and “–” (white line) properly. If the connections are faulty, this unit cannot reproduce the input sources accurately.

Caution

•Before connecting the speakers, make sure that this unit is turned off (see page 39).

•Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or do not let them touch any metal part of this unit. This could damage this unit and/ or speakers.

•Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speaker still creates interference with the monitor, place the speakers away from the monitor.

•If you are to use 6-ohm speakers, be sure to set “SPEAKER IMP.” to “6ΩMIN” before using this unit (see page 39).

Notes

•A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. Cables are colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridge. Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the “+” (red line) terminals on this unit and your speaker. Connect the plain cable to the “–” (white line) terminals.

•You can use the REAR ZONE/PRESENCE, FRONT ZONE/PRESENCE, and/or EXTRA SP speaker terminals for the Zone 2, Zone 3, and/or Zone 4 speakers (see page 116). You can also use all speaker terminals on this unit for the Zone 2, Zone 3, and/or Zone 4 speakers (see page 120).

■For the 11.2/11.1 (or 9.2/9.1) -channel speaker setting
