Connecting speakers
1Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8 in) of insulation from the end of each speaker cable and twist the exposed wires of the cable together to prevent short circuits.

• One or two speaker sets can be connected to this unit. If you use | PREPARATION |
Notes |
|
only one speaker set, connect it to either the SPEAKERS A or B |
|
terminals. |
|
• Use speakers with the specified impedance shown on the rear |
|
panel of this unit. |

■IMPEDANCE SELECTOR
CAUTION
Do not slide the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch while the power of this unit is turned on, as doing so may damage the unit.
Select the switch position (left or right) 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 | |
Right | each speaker must be 8 Ω or higher. | |
| ||
If you use two sets (A and B), the impedance | ||
| ||
| of each speaker must be 16 Ω or higher. | |
|
| |
| If you use one set (A or B), the impedance of | |
Left | each speaker must be 4 Ω or higher. | |
| ||
If you use two sets (A and B), the impedance | ||
| ||
| of each speaker must be 8 Ω or higher. | |
|
|
Notes
•The Canada model cannot use two speaker sets (A and B) simultaneously when the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch is slid to the right position.
•If this unit fails to turn on, the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch may not be fully slid to either position. If this is the case, slide the switch all the way to either position when the power supply to this unit is completely cut off.
