Speaker impedance
You can change the speaker impedance for VSX-53TX but we recommend using speakers with an impedance
of 8 Ω -16 Ω (the default setting). If you are using 6 Ω - less than 8 Ω impedance speakers, you need to change
the impedance setting. Use any speaker rated between 6 Ω -16 Ω .
Bi-wiring your speakers
This high quality but difficult method of wiring speakers will be
unnecessary for most users. In order to do this your speakers must be
bi-wireable (that is they must have separate terminals for the high and
low frequencies).
To bi-wire a speaker, connect two sets of speaker cords to each speaker
terminal on the receiver. The easiest way to do this is to connect one
wire in the normal way, and use a banana plug for the other one. Make
sure you use a parallel (not series) connection when doing so. Don't
connect different speakers from the same terminal in this way.
First put the receiver in STANDBY mode, then
press the power button while holding down the
SPEAKERS button.
The receiver will reset to the new impedance setting.
With this method you can choose the 8 Ω -16 Ω
setting or the 6 Ω - 8 Ω setting.
