Connections
When connecting various devices, make sure the cables and plugs have the correct rating.
Be sure to use cables designed for the purpose when you connect speakers to speaker jacks.
■Connecting monitoring speakers
You can connect one or two speakers to the SPEAKERS MONITOR jacks. Speaker impedance varies with the
number of speakers that are connected. Be sure to maintain speaker impedance at the specified value or
higher. Refer to the figure below.
■Connecting main speakers
If you select the two-channel connection, connect the speakers to the SPEAKERS L/R jacks. If you select the
BRIDGE connection, connect the speakers to the SPEAKERS L+R BRIDGE jack. Depending on the number
of connected speakers and the type of connection, speaker impedance requirements vary. Be sure to maintain
speaker impedance at the specified value or higher. Refer to the figure below.
