Instructions on how to connect speakers
2 speaker cables are required to connect each Front
& Height speaker. Use one speaker cable for the other
speakers' connection.
Cut and remove the plastic coating from the end of the
speaker cable, twist the core and connect it to the terminal.
Be sure to make correct connection between the unit's
jacks and speaker's jacks (+ to + and - to -) for each
channel. If connection is wrong, a bass sound may become
poor due to reverse phase.
Short-circuiting the + cable and - cable or contacting
the cable core to the rear panel of the unit may cause
failure. Further, do not connect more than 2 speaker
cables to each individual set of speaker terminals on
this unit or the speakers.
When using commercially available banana plugs:
tighten the speaker terminals to the end and then insert
the banana plugs. Do not insert the core of speaker cable
directly into the hole for banana plug of speaker terminal.
