Denon AVR-2803/983 Home Theater System User Manual


 
Connect the speaker terminals with the speakers making sure that like
polarities are matched (® with ®, ® with O ) Mismatching of polarities will
result in weak central sound, unclear orientation of the various instruments,
and the sense of direction of the stereo being impaired
When making connections, take care that none of the individual conductors
of the speaker cord come in contact with adjacent terminals, with other
speaker cord conductors, or with the rear panel
NOTE:
NEVER touch the speaker ter minals when the power is on
Doing so could result in electric shocks
Speaker Impedance
Speakers with an impedance of from 6 to 16 _/ohms can be connected for
use as front and center speakers¸
Speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 _/ohms can be connected for use as
surround speakers¸
Be careful when using two pairs of front speakers {A + B) at the same time,
since use of speakers with an impedance of less than g _/ohms will lead to
damage¸
The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long periods of
time at high volumes when speakers with an impedance lower than the
specified impedance are connected¸
Connection the speaker terminals
