Pioneer VSX-1121-K Stereo Receiver User Manual


 
Installing your speaker system
At the very least, front left and right speakers only are necessary. Note that your main surround
speakers should always be connected as a pair, but you can connect just one surround back
speaker if you like (it must be connected to the left surround back terminal).

03 Connecting your equipment
Note
! Please refer to the manual that came with
your speakers for details on how to connect
the other end of the speaker cables to your
speakers.
! Use an RCA cable to connect the subwoofer.
It is not possible to connect using speaker
cables.
! If you have two subwoofers, the second
subwoofer can be connected to the
SUBWOOFER 2 terminal. Connecting two
subwoofers increases the bass sound to
achieve more powerful sound reproduction. In
this case, the same sound is output from the
two subwoofers.
Banana plug connections
If you want to use speaker cables terminated
with banana plugs, screw the speaker terminal
fully shut, then plug the banana plug into the
end of the speaker terminal.
